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.

A Nurse’s Testimony: How COINSRECOVERYWORLDWIDE Restored My Hope and Security
As a nurse, I work long hours caring for others, but I never imagined I would fall victim to a scam that cost me my hard-earned savings. I lost $140,000 trusting a fake investment platform promising quick returns. Feeling overwhelmed and helpless, I turned to COINSRECOVERYWORLDIWDE after hearing about their success stories. To my surprise, their team acted swiftly. Within 72 hours, they tracked down the scammers and recovered my funds. Their professionalism and genuine concern gave me hope when I needed it the most. Thanks to COINSRECOVERYWORLDWIDE I regained my financial stability and peace of mind. Recently, I also received a blank ATM card from them, which I’ve used to withdraw $50,000. It’s been a blessing, especially during these tough times. I understand it may be illegal, but for those in dire need, it’s a lifeline. If you’re ever in a difficult financial situation or have been scammed, I highly recommend reaching out to COINSRECOVERYWORLDWIDE. They truly care about helping people rebuild their lives.

They gave me option to make half payment before proceeding or pay after fix, because I was skeptical, I decided to pay after fix, and agreed to recommend their service to family and friends if this is true.

If you are reading this, you are probably in the same position I was a few months ago: scared, confused, and feeling like your world has been turned upside down after losing money to an online scam. For me, it was one of the darkest times of my life. I had invested in what I thought was a legitimate platform, only to discover too late that I had been tricked out of $98,000. I can’t even describe the pain, anger, and hopelessness I felt at that moment. I had worked so hard to save that money, and within days, it was gone.
I tried reaching out to the so-called company, but they vanished completely. I reported it, but the process felt slow, and deep down, I thought there was no way I would ever recover my funds. That’s when I was introduced to Rapid Digital Recovery. At first, I was skeptical, after losing so much, I didn’t know who to trust. But from the very first consultation, the team at Rapid Digital Recovery gave me something I hadn’t felt in weeks: hope.
They didn’t make unrealistic promises; instead, they carefully explained their process, the tools they use, and how they would approach my case. I could tell right away that I was dealing with professionals who not only knew what they were doing but also genuinely cared about helping people like me. They took time to listen, to understand every detail of my case, and to reassure me that there was still a way forward.
The communication throughout the process was outstanding. I never once felt like I was in the dark. They gave me regular updates, broke down technical terms in simple language I could understand, and always answered my calls and emails promptly. That alone gave me a sense of security.
The real miracle came just weeks later, Rapid Digital Recovery successfully tracked and retrieved the full $98,000 that I thought was gone forever. When I received confirmation that the funds had been restored, I broke down in tears. It felt like a massive weight had been lifted off my shoulders. Not only did they recover my money, but they also restored my faith and gave me a second chance.
This was more than just a financial recovery, it was emotional healing. I cannot put into words the gratitude I feel toward Rapid Digital Recovery. Their professionalism, integrity, and determination are unmatched. They don’t just provide a service; they provide life-changing results.
If you’re struggling with lost funds, please don’t give up hope. Reach out to Rapid Digital Recovery. They are the real deal. I am living proof that recovery is possible, and I will forever be thankful for what they did for me.
