Mum Guilt and is painting a job?!

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...

Dr Amber is a life saver! Not only do I love him as a life saver but also because his spells never fails. He rescued me from poverty and brought happiness into my life. I’ve been playing the lottery since I was age 22 and the biggest amount I’ve ever won was $1200 bucks. On this fateful day, my life turned around from story to glory when I found various reviews of Dr Amber on the Internet saying that he’s the best when it comes to casting of powerful spells. This man is a very strong Haiti Voodoo Doc that gives out numbers that has never failed to play the lottery. After all my years of struggling to win the lottery, I finally won $200,000 thousand dollars after Dr Amber casted a lottery spell for me and gave me the correct numbers to play the lottery. Right now, my long awaited blessings has finally come to me and I thank Dr Amber for his help. Get in touch with him for any help via email: ( amberlottotemple@yahoo.com ) or you call/text him with his current number +1 (808) 481-5132.

Lottery games are like a habit to me because of lord Bubuza. I didn’t believe a spell caster could cast a spell and give the right lottery winning number to people and they would actually win the lottery game. My life is a testimony today because I won 59,000,000 million dollars with the help of lord Bubuza lottery numbers. I contacted lord Bubuza for help to win a lottery via Text: +1 507 400-0072, he told me that a spell was required to be casted so that he can reveal my winning number, I provided his requirements for casting the spell and after casting the spell he gave lottery numbers and a site where I played and won 59,000,000 dollars, how can I thank this man enough? His spell is real, He is a God on Earth and I am recommending anyone who needs help to win a lottery to him. Contact him via Text/call: +1 507 400-0072 or email: lordbubuzamiraclework@hotmail.com

My relationship was like hell, We fought almost everyday because of my boyfriend’s cheating Habit, We have a child together but his cheating habit was breaking our relationship. I was emotionally heartbroken knowing that my boyfriend was cheating on me, my friend felt my pain and told me how Lord Bubuza used his spell to restore her broken relationship. I spoke to lord Bubuza for help on Text: +1-507-400-0072 and he said my boyfriend will come back begging on his knees after casting his spell, I did as he instructed and 16 hours after casting the spell my boyfriend came back crying and begging me on his knees to forgive him, lord Bubuza spell was so fast and active. He has stopped cheating and I am so safe with him now. Do you need help to win your ex back? Contact lord Bubuza via Text/call: +1-507-400-0072 or e-mail: lordbubuzamiraclework@hotmail.com

I was paid $30 per hour at work and it was a stressful job, I was researching online for a better job when I saw testimonies of how lord Bubuza helped people with his spell to help a lottery. I have not played the lottery game before so I wondered how it works, I spoke to lord Bubuza via text: +1 507 400-0072 asking for help to win the lottery game too. He responded and requested for my name and picture, he said it was needed to cast a spell so that his gods will reveal to him the site where i was destined to win. I did as he instructed and the items were bought to cast the spell, after the casting of the spell he gave me a lottery number and a website which was revealed to him by the gods when he was casting the spell. I played the lottery numbers and two days later I got an email that I won 139 million dollars. I thought it was a joke but behold I got paid without stress. Lord Bubuza is a great Psychic, join me thank him via Text/call: +1 507 400-0072 or email: lordbubuzamiraclework @ hotmail . com
