Mum Guilt and is painting a job?!
Posted by Caroline Valpied on
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...

Hello everyone, my husband and I had already given up hope of ever getting cured from herpes. We tried so many treatments, went to different doctors, and kept getting prescribed the same medications that just didn’t work for me. Then one day, I came across a post online from someone talking about Dr. Phillip Healer. She said his herbal remedies had helped her, so I decided to reach out. From the very first conversation, he gave us hope. He prepared some herbal medicine and explained exactly how to take it. We followed his instructions carefully. At first, I wasn’t sure if it was working, but my husband encouraged me to let us go get tested again, and to our surprise, the results came out clear and negative. I’m so grateful to Dr. Phillip Healer for helping me. If you’re struggling with herpes, you can reach out to him via email: drphillipherbalsolution@gmail.com His herbal medicine is a total game changer and a life saver that made a real difference for me.
I humbly request that you speak with me regarding Recovery Hacker101, a great hacker who assisted me in recovering my money after I fell for a dishonest Crypto Investment scammer. My fiancée broke up with me because I had lost all of my life savings to this ripper, and I was so destitute that I couldn’t even afford to purchase food or pay my rent. After seeing this hacker’s advertisement, I reached out to him at recoveryhacker101@gmail.com and gave him the details of my predicament. I thought he was merely a hacker because he said he would assist me get my money back, but Recovery Hacker101 showed me that he could. I was startled when he eventually received my $357,000 USD back from the rippers.
I was so lucky to win the $344.6 million prize in the lottery. I have been playing the Powerball lottery for about 20 years, and I hadn’t won a big amount until Dr. Isa helped me with his spiritual winning numbers. I thought it was all fake until he gave me the numbers and directed me on how to play. He assured me that I was going to win and asked me to give him 48 hours to finish his work, which I did. On the third day, he gave me the numbers and provided instructions on how to play, and luckily, I won. I want to let everyone who is reading this know that this spell really works, and you can also be a winner if you give it a try to see for yourself. The moment you contact Dr Isa for help is the end of suffering in your life. He has been helping people around the world, and I’m happy that I’m among those who have benefited from his great work he’s doing. You can reach him if you really want to win the lottery.
