I do say no to lots of things, actually! I know it doesn't look like it. But I have a tendency to a) be rubbish at saying no, and b) be pushed by some kind of Protestant work ethic. ↗
I just really want to continue on the same intensity of work ethic, I don't want to slow now. I'm 21-year's old and I feel like this era and a few years to come are my prime years, so I want to utilise them. ↗
They see a work ethic in both of us. But, they also see that my husband is more in control of his future, and I am more reliant on other sources for my career. ↗
