A Life Hack Miscalculation? "The Second Proposal" (#WeeklyShortShortNote)
I'm thinking of becoming a farmer.
In his mid-thirties, my husband suddenly announced he was quitting his job as a bank clerk.
I had grown tired of a male-dominated workplace and had married a dull local bank clerk to escape, retiring from my job.
I thought marrying him was the ultimate life hack, but...
If you're a bank clerk, you understand how difficult the current situation for farmers is, right?
Yeah, that's why I've started to feel like I want to become a farmer for the sake of Japan.
What if we have children?
We can raise them in a nature-rich environment.
(This is no good. What should I do?)
Besides, didn't you say at our matchmaking meeting that your dream was to become a pastry chef?
(?)
Let's make sweets with the fruit I grow and open a farm-to-table restaurant in the future.
It's your childhood dream.
The food and sweets you make are incredibly delicious. It'll definitely work.
(I'm starting to waver.)
Let's go grape picking this weekend, partly for reconnaissance.
Ah, yeah, okay.
(Whether this turns into a major life hack miscalculation depends on me, doesn't it?)
I secretly took out my prized recipe collection and smiled faintly.
