Mum Guilt and is painting a job?!
Every mother knows this feeling. Your needs don't always match up to your little one's needs and there is a push/pull. At the beginning you kind of have to get out of bed and feed the baby (how dare they be hungry when you're desperately trying to get just one hour shut-eye?!) and look after them the rest of the time. If you're a completely deranged control freak like me (and there are no local grandparents to detach you from your new family member) you think you should be with them all the time until you go completely mad. I don't recommend this.
N.B. This is the daycare (how fun! so much stuff! nature!) not my backyard.
My point is that we've put Salvador in daycare and I've been transitioning to this new reality, just like he has. He actually really likes it. I only rang up 12 times on the first day. It's gone down a bit since then.
He's only in two days a week, but from next week it will be three. Is this fair? Is painting a real job? Does it warrant incarcerating my child? *slight hysteria rising in voice* Well, clients are paying me to paint so it's a freelance job that's earning us an income. What about when I'm painting for an exhibition? What about when I take a break? Am I allowed to take breaks?
Most of us have to work and that usually means their children have to be looked after by others. It just feels so weird to be entirely freelance so no boss, no hours to keep to, at home, but without Salvador. I think the weird part is that painting doesn't feel like a job. It's a part of me I need to feed to calm me down and make me (relatively, ah-hem) normal. If I didn't like my job, would that validate daycare somehow?
What do you think? To daycare or not to daycare. To follow your passion and build an art career or to smother your little one in kisses all day (which let's face it, is a pretty good way to spend your time). These are my questions...

My name is Ashley Vivian, Am here to share a testimony on how Dr Raypower helped me. After a 1/5 year relationship with my boyfriend, he changed suddenly and stopped contacting me regularly, he would come up with excuses of not seeing me all the time. He stopped answering my calls and my sms and he stopped seeing me regularly. I then started catching him with different girls several times but every time he would say that he loved me and that he needed some time to think about our relationship. But I couldn’t stop thinking about him so I decided to go online and I saw so many good talks about this spell caster called Dr Raypower and I contacted him and explained my problems to him. He cast a love spell for me which I use and after 24 hours, my boyfriend came back to me and started contacting me regularly and we moved in together after a few months and he was more open to me than before and he started spending more time with me than his friends. We eventually got married and we have been married happily for 3 years with a son. Ever since Dr Raypower helped me, my partner is very stable, faithful and closer to me than before.

I want to use this medium to testify how I won the lottery, first I was so much interested in playing the lottery though I’ve never played before, because I was below 18, but I keep looking and doing research about it! For about two years, one day I came across a comment on how a spellcaster helped him win the lottery… I copied the spellcaster’s email, sent him a message and was hoping for his reply. He gave me a reply later that night and said he will help me because I’m a destined child. He told me what to do, which I eventually did, and he later sent me the number after 48 hours he told me before, so I went ahead to purchase the ticket at a Circle K store in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. So I was hoping and praying the numbers works out for good according to what he said. I can still remember on January 07 I later found out I won. While at work. This was the greatest blessing that has ever happened to me. I was awarded a $48 million cheque as the sole winner of the lotto 6/49 gold ball jackpot 2023 draw. All thanks to Dr Macus for making me a millionaire at an early age and also making my dreams come through. I own him and his oracle everything. you too can reach him through his email DRMACUSSPELLCASTER@GMAIL.COM I’m proudly assured he will be there for you.
