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...

I still can’t believe what happened to me! For years, I struggled to win anything from the lottery until I came across Dr. Benjamin, a powerful spell caster. At first, I was skeptical, but after speaking with him, I decided to give it a try. Dr. Benjamin prepared a special spell and gave me the exact lottery numbers to play. I followed his instructions carefully, and to my greatest surprise, I hit the Powerball jackpot worth $340,000,000.00! My life has completely changed overnight — from financial struggles to total freedom. I can now take care of my family, help people in need, and live the kind of life I always dreamed of. Dr. Benjamin is truly a blessing, and I’ll forever be grateful for his amazing help. I promise not to ever stop telling people about the goods works you’ve done in my life..

I honestly don’t even know where to begin! My name is Justin Simporios from Surrey, B.C., and I just have to say a massive THANK YOU to Chief Ade for changing my life in a way I never thought possible.

Because of you, my family and I can finally live without stress, travel the world, and build the future we’ve always hoped for.

I’m at a loss for how to express this. My sister welcomed twin daughters in July, and I found myself in a difficult financial and emotional state. I am known as Celta Vallecano, and during my quest to find quick cash, I came across an advertisement claiming that Lord Meduza provides precise numbers to those genuinely selected for freedom from financial struggles through his genuine spell. I felt compelled to take a chance, and ever since reaching out to Lord Meduza, my life has significantly improved.. As I write this, I am now a winner of €375 Million Euros after adhering to all the guidance and utilizing the MEGA MILLIONS numbers provided by Lord Meduza. I want to express my gratitude for the fact that assistance is indeed possible regardless of how difficult your circumstances may seem. I highly recommend him in case you require any assistance.
