That's my life now!
a year ago
Hey guys, it's been a hot minute since my last update.
I'm in a very weird spot right now where I'm very happy but also very stressed and worried, it's very weird. I'm super happy about our little Bean, our new house, the way we are dealing with parenting as a team and I'm feeling so much love all around!
On the other hand,, maternity leave is ending at the start of May and even with many phone calls and emails and reaching out, it doesn't look like Bean will be entering a daycare this year... Which means I can't get back to work. It's a very hard blow that to our family that I have to be a stay at home mom and we are going to rely on a single income for probably a year if not more. This was never the plan or my wish, I love my baby but I didn't plan for nor did I want to become a stay at home mom. I'm not taking anything away from moms who choose this!
I was actually planning on looking for part-time or full-time art related employment after maternity leave so, this is quite the opposite of what I wanted to happen! I knew the daycare situation was problematic in our province but I never expected it to be this bad considering I'm looking at any type of daycare (private, gov funded and so on).
Where does this leave me? At home lol.
I've got a couple of hours a day when I can draw when the baby naps. I also have other things to do around the house cause I might as well pull my weight if I'm going to not work :/ But this means that commissions are going to be slow...
I'm still going to ask the people on my queue in order if they still want their commission spots when I get to them but boy am I glad I don't take payment upfront!
I don't know when the situation will change, I'm hoping in less than a year, the stress comes from not having any income on my end, not from the baby! He is growing fast and is lovely!
Hope you guys have a great day and thanks for dropping by!
