What I actually do in a day

Posted by Caroline Valpied on

Gutsy the Wombat by Jimmi BuscombeSome 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 Drawings of my babydrink 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.

  • If your crypto investment account is locked, compromised, or hacked, I recommend contacting RecoveryHacker101 recovery firm. Last month, I sought their assistance after falling victim to a crypto scam that left me feeling hopeless and helpless. However, they proved me wrong by helping me retrieve the funds that were stuck on the fraudulent website. Losing money to the website was an extremely devastating experience, and I deeply regretted my initial decision to invest. Despite my wife’s initial opposition, I proceeded with the investment in hopes of securing long-term financial support for my family. Unfortunately, I lost a total of £117,000, which came from our family savings. To prevent my wife from discovering the loss, considering she had warned me about potential risks, I reached out to RecoveryHacker101 via email at “RECOVERYHACKER101 @ GMAIL. COM.” This turned out to be the best decision I made, as they swiftly recovered my funds within a couple of days. I am grateful for their assistance.

  • During my academic journey at the University of Denver I was always eager to explore new opportunities and cultivate a successful career. After graduation I dedicated my efforts to securing remote positions in the fintech sector, a field that captivated my interest. A few months ago I received an enticing offer from a blockchain company for a role in Payroll processing. Everything about the company appeared legitimate; their website was meticulously designed, the interviews were conducted with professionalism and they provided corporate documents that seemed authentic. I felt a surge of excitement as I envisioned my future with them. As part of the onboarding process they informed me that I would need to complete a brief training phase. To participate they requested a deposit of $45,000 in USDT asserting that the funds would be cycled through a mock Payroll system. Despite a nagging suspicion that something was amiss I convinced myself that their documentation was credible and the onboarding team was remarkably responsive almost insistent. Trusting my Instincts I proceeded to transfer the funds believing I was making a prudent investment in my career. within just a few hours everything took a drastic turn. Communication abruptly ceased; emails went unanswered the Telegram accounts I had been in contact with Vanished and the company website suddenly displayed a 404 error. A sinking feeling enveloped me as I realized that I had fallen victim to a scam. I discovered GRAYWARE TECH SERVICE a group that specializes in cyber fraud and cryptocurrency scams.

Through Coordinated efforts involving on-chain analytics legal Notifications and Collaboration with exchange compliance departments GRAYWARE TECH SERVICE successfully intercepted and recovered $42,000 USDT within just 24 hours of being engaged.

  • Not long ago, I fell victim to a deceptive crypto trading scheme that promised quick profits but drained my savings instead. I was left devastated, watching my hard-earned funds vanish into an untraceable web of blockchain addresses. I had almost given up hope, until I came across Alpha Spy Nest. From the very first contact, their professionalism and deep understanding of crypto forensics stood out. They patiently listened to my story, gathered every detail, and explained how they could trace and recover the stolen funds. Using advanced blockchain tracking tools, hidden network monitoring, and legal liaison channels, they uncovered the path my money had taken, through multiple wallets, mixers, and exchanges. Every update they gave me restored a bit of my trust in the process. I could see they weren’t just chasing numbers, they were determined to get my money back. Weeks later, they achieved what I thought was impossible, they successfully intercepted the funds at an exchange node and initiated the legal steps for recovery. Today, my savings are back in my account. Alpha Spy Nest didn’t just recover my money, they restored my faith that not all hope is lost when scams happen. They are more than just a cyber recovery team, they are relentless guardians against digital fraud.
