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.

  • As I sit down to reflect on the past few months, I can’t help but feel a mix of anger, betrayal, and disbelief. I was one of the many Canadians who fell victim to the Maple Leaf Digital Growth Fund, a scheme that promised a seemingly irresistible 5% monthly return on investments. At first, it sounded like a golden opportunity, especially in a world where traditional savings accounts barely keep up with inflation. Little did I know that I was stepping into a trap that would cost me and my friends dearly.It all started when my close friend, Mark, approached me with the idea. He had been raving about the fund, sharing how he had already made a
    WhatsApp: +1 (920) 408‑1234 significant profit. Mark was always the savvy investor in our circle, and his enthusiasm was contagious. He convinced me and a few others that this was a chance we couldn’t afford to miss. We trusted him, and that trust led us to invest a combined total of $4.7 million, with each of us believing we were making a smart financial decision.As the months went by, the returns came in as promised, and I felt a sense of relief and excitement. I even encouraged a couple of my colleagues to invest, thinking I was helping them secure their financial futures. However, everything changed when withdrawals were suddenly suspended. Panic set in as we tried to access our funds, only to be met with vague excuses and delays. It was then that the reality hit us: we had been duped.When PRO WIZARD GIlBERT RECOVERY stepped in, I felt a glimmer of hope. Their team of recovery specialists quickly identified the operation as a Ponzi scheme, revealing that the returns we had received were simply payments made from the investments of newer participants. I was devastated. The realization that I had not only lost my money but had also influenced others to invest was a heavy burden to bear.Their skills were apparent as they navigated the intricacies of the case. When they revealed that they had successfully retrieved all the funds, a profound sense of relief washed over me. Such a positive outcome is uncommon in these scenarios, and I felt immense gratitude for their hard work.This ordeal has imparted a crucial lesson about the necessity of thorough research and skepticism in the investment landscape. I’ve come to realize that if an opportunity seems too good to be true, it often is. I’ve learned to exercise greater caution when it comes to encouraging others in financial decisions. I’m thankful to have my money restored.
