When I brought up retirement, I had no selfish motives. It was truly about Winston and Emerald spending more time together. I didn’t realize by giving them that gift I too would be blessed. He has 100% stepped up his parenting game. He helps her with homework, keeps her out of my hair while I’m working, and even makes her a snack when she gets home from school! I don’t know who this sim is and where he’s holding my boo, but he can stay!
I have a feeling work is about to get very interesting for me. How interesting? I’m not sure yet. I was contacted by a BIG label. So big I don’t even want to say the same. They offered me a ton of money to promote their clothes if I liked them. Like, I’m talking motherlode type money!
It was tempting for all of three seconds. First of all, with the money I make and Winston’s house sale, we’re good. We don’t need that kind of money. When he dies, I’m gonna give it all to Emmy when she moves out. I will be fine. Secondly, I do not wear anything that does not support my values or was not made with my body type in mind. I’m a BIG girl. But I’m also gorgeous and sexy and smart. I don’t believe skinny should be the standard for beauty because true beauty comes from within. I wear labels that understand that. When the media hears about this deal, they will either respect me for standing up for my beliefs thus bringing me more business or they will crucify me for turning down such a generous offer. My business could grow from that too, but it could also hurt it. Either way, I’ll be unbothered because I’ll still walk with my head held high.
