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...

Everything was really tough on me after my divorce. I was devastated and couldn’t even focus on work. I reached out to his friends and family to help us but despite great efforts from them, he did not listen. I was broken as i could not see myself with anybody else as my husband was my first and only love. So i had to seek help from Dr Ilekhojie who was recommended to me by a friend from work. He performed a reconciliation ritual which changed everything completely and it was overwhelming. His words is his bound and he never fails when he promises result. My husband suddenly called and told me that he wants to give our love another chance and it has been 4 months of love and happiness all over again. Don’t bother seeking help elsewhere.

My name is Betty, and I reside in the USA. Just a few weeks ago, I found myself ensnared in a devastating scam involving a fraudulent cryptocurrency investment scheme. The ordeal began innocuously enough when I encountered what appeared to be a legitimate investment opportunity through a woman who had illicitly accessed a close friend’s Facebook account. Seduced by promises of substantial returns, I initially invested a modest sum and, to my delight, saw impressive profits. As my confidence grew, so did the deception. I was gradually persuaded to upgrade to royal VIP status within the platform, believing it would unlock even greater financial gains. Unfortunately, this decision proved to be my undoing. Instead of seeing increased returns or easy withdrawal of funds, I found myself trapped in a cycle of demands for additional investments and promises of delayed profits that never materialized. The situation quickly spiraled out of control, culminating in me investing nearly $1.5 million into what turned out to be a sophisticated scam. Every attempt to withdraw my funds or seek clarification from the platform’s support team was met with stonewalling tactics and excuses. It soon became clear that I had been manipulated and deceived out of a substantial portion of my savings. Devastated and feeling utterly betrayed, I embarked on a desperate search for a solution.
