Mum Guilt and is painting a job?!
Share
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...

A few months ago, I fell victim to what I thought was a promising trading opportunity. The platform looked professional, the representatives sounded convincing, and I truly believed I was investing in a legitimate operation. Over time, I deposited more and more into my account until the balance reached $80,000 worth of Bitcoin. Then everything collapsed, When I tried to withdraw my funds, the so-called support team kept stalling with excuses, system upgrades, verification delays, and finally silence. My login stopped working altogether. That’s when it hit me: I had been scammed. I felt sick. Not only was it my hard earned money, but it was also in Bitcoin, which I thought was irreversible once stolen. After days of despair and searching online, I stumbled across Dexdert Net Pro Recovery, a firm specializing in recovering funds from crypto scams. At first, I was skeptical. After being burned so badly, trusting anyone else felt impossible. But their transparency, professional communication, and case-by-case explanation gave me confidence. They didn’t promise miracles, they explained the process, and the realistic chances of recovery. I decided to give it a chance. Dexdert’s team immediately got to work, tracing the blockchain trail of my stolen Bitcoin. They uncovered the scammer’s wallet movement, identified exchange points where the funds had been routed, Weeks later, I got the news I thought I’d never hear: my Bitcoin had been successfully reclaimed and returned to my wallet. The final recovered amount was exactly what I had lost my full $80,000 worth of Bitcoin. The relief was indescribable. Dexdert Net Pro Recovery not only restored my funds but also restored my trust that justice is possible, Today, I share my story so others know that while scams are everywhere, there is real help out there. If you’ve been defrauded, don’t suffer in silence seek expert recovery assistance. For me, Dexdert Net Pro Recovery turned a nightmare into a second chance.

I used to be very skeptical about spells until reached out to Dr Iyayi who cleared my doubt about this. My Man broke up with me about six months ago, I was so depressed and decided to give this a try. Lo and behold, Dr Iyayi helped me, it was a miracle as he came back begging me. If you need any help regarding love spell, then you need to reach out to Dr Iyayi on Email: Driyayi48hourslovespell@gmail.com or WhatsApp: +1 867 675 4432
