On Being a Mother and an Artist

February 16, 2019

Once upon a time I had a cute little studio/box room in our house. When our little baby came along, I kept it for a while, but when it was time for baby to have his own room I was shipped out to the garage to paint between the beer fridge and lawn mower (sob). Seriously though, I have tried so hard to keep going with my painting - even buying a nice big playpen to put next to my easel (see below!) because obviously baby was going to be absolutely fine playing next to me while I painted, not needing me at all...

It's really, really tricky to juggle motherhood and art. To be honest, the last thing I felt like doing in the sleep deprived first ten months (yes, ten!!) was putting paint to canvas. Even getting dressed felt like an effort. The best times I found to draw were when he was sleeping...but he has only just started sleeping in his cot (at 13 months). Before that I pushed the pram back and forth with one hand and drew with the other.

This blog is going to be about how I juggle my beloved little being and the relentless pull to create.

Truck Driver Loses $340K to Crypto Scam… JetWebHackers Got It ALL Back – Tears on the Highway!

Out on long hauls, grinding day and night, ‘Susan’ hit me up on social media with promises of 15% monthly returns on my $340K Bitcoin investment. It was my life savings—rig payments, family future—I trusted her and sent it all. Then silence. Funds locked, Susan gone. Parked at a truck stop, I broke down in the cab, ashamed and terrified my family would pay for my mistake. Felt like the end. A fellow driver pointed me to JetWebHackers. Skeptical, but desperate, I reached out. Their team listened, traced the blockchain fast, and recovered every dollar—$340K back in my wallet in weeks. When it hit… I pulled over and cried tears of pure relief. They gave this trucker his hope and life back. If you’ve been scammed, don’t give up—JetWebHackers are real lifesavers. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! God bless. #JetWebHackers
