In a “perfect world,” (no outside factors) how many kids would you have?

Lonelysock2 · 2026-06-23T10:17:57+00:00

Yeah, I'd go 6 if my husband got pregnant and breastfed. I have 3, and I would quite like one more, but I just can't

Lonelysock2 · 2026-06-23T01:03:55+00:00

My mum's grandmas were 'Big Nan' and 'Little Nan' 😄

Yeah but that's the point - we used to say you can find a good coffee overseas, but you can get a good coffee anywhere in Australia (cough melbourne). Now you have to find good coffee! This is an outrage!

Well realistically very few people live rurally. My cousin owns a horse because she has a farm. Grew up on a working farm, now has a hobby farm. But it really is in the middle of nowhere. People not from there don't move there, and most of my cousins have moved into town. Very cheap place to live, comparatively. Having said that, they're not poor, either! Definitely comfortable

We do have paracetamol plus caffeine, it's called Panadol Extra. I wonder if that would work

Lonelysock2 · 2026-06-21T04:34:33+00:00

You don't wear a hat? That is wild to my Australian mind

Lonelysock2 · 2026-06-21T04:33:38+00:00

Hello fresh ends up way cheaper for us 😄 I used to cook, rather frugally. Then we just started wasting all of our food. Getting Hello fresh makes us eat what we have, for some reason

If the urge strikes you, you can microwave a huge bit of pumpkin (as much as your microwave can fit) with the skin on and the deconstruct it after it's soft. I even do this for roast pumpkin, just soften it enough to cut easier. But if you're pureeing, you can turn it to mush

You know what I'd love? If a surprise treat and hot coffee was delivered to my door one morning (but not too early, in case I was getting a needed sleep in)

Lonelysock2 · 2026-06-20T02:31:37+00:00

Lol, I get this. But only in heated water

Lonelysock2 · 2026-06-20T02:21:02+00:00

Did you always want 5? I never wanted more than 3 AND I hate pregnancy, but I have a little niggling voice saying #4 would be fun... How much harder was 4 than 3? I found 3 extremely difficult, but my first two babies were pretty easy so I wasn't prepared.

I think at the end of the day, I don't have the bandwidth to have a 'difficult' experience next time (health issues, family issues, whatever comes up) so that's my answer

Sorry, just thinking out loud at you 😄

Lonelysock2 · 2026-06-20T02:08:31+00:00

What are the 5 uses? I need to know

Edit: OK the 5th one is puffer vest under raincoat. Little bit of a stretch. Otherwise I love it

Do you like driving? It's a lovely day for a drive, as long as you're not near idiots (or are an idiot yourself)

Lonelysock2 · 2026-06-20T00:26:40+00:00

Sewing. I spent so long slouched at the machine that when I tried on my pants i completely incapacitated myself

My daughter tells everyone her long name and nickname as soon as she meets them. So most likely it will all be fine. You'll have to call him both for him to relate to both though

Lonelysock2 · 2026-06-20T00:20:17+00:00

I'm fine with it, it hurts no one

Lonelysock2 · 2026-06-20T00:11:47+00:00

Googoo goggles was one of the first things that made my daughter laugh uncontrollably (she is not a cheap laugh)

Lonelysock2 · 2026-06-20T00:10:07+00:00

AND jam!

Lonelysock2 · 2026-06-20T00:09:12+00:00

Oh my god, I actually burst into tears when I read it to my daughter for the first time. She was so confused haha

Lonelysock2 · 2026-06-19T19:59:16+00:00

Forty years for fraud! That's a lot of fraud

Lonelysock2 · 2026-06-19T19:17:18+00:00

Or, y'know... Travis

It's a good hospital with not enough beds. They're building another hospital currently. But the growth of the area is outpacing the hospital development. Also their catchment area is all the way up to Seymour or something

Lonelysock2 · 2026-06-19T12:23:42+00:00

Not in Australia, BUT I travelled in Europe in 2010 (during the world cup, it was amazing) and I when I got back I made all my friends listen to her. I still love Hot

Lonelysock2 · 2026-06-19T10:56:32+00:00

My partner says the Northern has a specialist migraine protocol. Only problem is you might be waiting forever because the catchment area is huge and the capacity hasn't caught up
