What I actually do in a day
Posted by Caroline Valpied on
Some days are fairly productive. Example: Early morning coffee with Jimmi Buscombe (of wombat fame, 80K views! click here if you haven't seen it yet...) who is an exceptional artist, friend and mentor. Fixed something on my website in Salvador's first nap. I can't remember anything else from that day, but I'm sure I did lots. I remember it being fulfilling. I probably bought some paint or something.
Some days are less productive in terms of art. Perhaps I don't do anything, then 
drink wine when Sal's gone to bed. Today was half half. The thing is, it's almost impossible for me to do any of my art practice with my little one around. He's gorgeous and sweet, and well, quite needy. He just loves full on attention, just like, um, me. Can't really blame him. Today though, I decided to attempt to draw him even though he is NEVER still. I love looking at him and I wanted to capture something of the curve of his cute little bottom, his little legs, the way the hat I always make him wear doesn't really fit him anymore and sort of bulges on top of his head.
It felt so good to get my pencil out, while watching him entertain himself in the garden knowing I was close so he could come and check in (climb on me) any time he wanted. He even got familiar with some of my art materials!
At last it felt like I could draw and be a good mum at the same time.

I invested over $200,000 with George Van der Riet, believing it was a real opportunity. In the beginning, everything looked legitimate. But over time, I was constantly asked to add more funds just to access what I had already invested. No matter how much I put in, I couldn’t make any withdrawals. Eventually, I realized something was seriously wrong. After a lot of stress and searching for help, I found a resource ‘’nettracep @ gmail. com’’ that guided me through the process of recovering my funds. It took time and patience, but with the right support, I was able to get my money back. If you’re going through something similar, know that you’re not alone. Keep looking for the right help, stay cautious, and don’t give up. There are people and services out there that can make a difference.
It all started with an email. It looked legitimate like it came from my bank. Same logos, same tone, same formatting. But within 24 hours, I realized I had fallen victim to a sophisticated phishing scam. I watched in horror as $239,000 was drained from my investment account nearly my entire life savings. I was devastated. I contacted my bank immediately, but they told me that once the transaction was confirmed on the blockchain, it was irreversible. That’s when the panic truly set in. I filed a police report and even contacted a few cybersecurity consultants, but they all told me the same thing: there was nothing they could do. Then I found Malice Cyber Recovery. I was skeptical at first. Most people say crypto and digital fund recovery is impossible. But from the first interaction, Malice stood out. They were professional, responsive, and most importantly realistic. They didn’t make wild promises. Instead, they carefully reviewed the transaction, analyzed the addresses involved, and laid out a step-by-step plan. What impressed me most was their transparency. I was assigned a recovery agent who kept me updated regularly, explaining how they were tracking the movement of my stolen funds across wallets and exchanges. Within just over three weeks, I got the message I never thought I’d see: “We’ve recovered the funds.” And sure enough, $239,000 was safely transferred back into my secured wallet. Every dollar accounted for. Malice Cyber Recovery gave me more than just my money back they gave me peace of mind. I now have better digital security practices in place, and I owe it all to their team. If you’ve been a victim of cyber theft or crypto scams, don’t give up. I’m living proof that there’s still hope and Malice Cyber Recovery is the team to call.

After falling victim to a well-orchestrated crypto investment scam that drained $400,000 of my hard-earned savings, I was devastated emotionally and financially. The con was sophisticated: a seemingly legitimate platform, regular updates, and even customer support that mimicked real-world exchanges. But once I tried to withdraw my profits, the system collapsed and all communication ceased. Panicked and desperate, I turned to online recovery services that claimed to specialize in crypto tracing and fund retrieval. Unfortunately, that decision only compounded my loss. I was conned yet again, this time by self-proclaimed crypto recovery experts who demanded upfront fees and delivered nothing but silence after payment. Just when I had given up hope, I came across Alpha Spy Nest through a cautious referral. Skeptical but desperate, I contacted them. Unlike the others, their process was clear, professional, and reassuring. They didn’t promise miracles but explained their strategy involving blockchain forensics, legal partners, and data tracing tools. Over the following weeks, they kept me updated with verified progress reports, wallet tracking, and eventually collaborated with authorities to freeze certain wallets linked to the scam. Against all odds, they successfully recovered a substantial portion of my funds, nearly the full $400,000. I was stunned. Their transparency, deep technical expertise, and commitment stood in stark contrast to the fraudsters I had dealt with before. Alpha Spy Nest gave me not just my money back, but a renewed sense of justice. I owe them everything.
