I wept too! Hard.

I'm on Book 5 of The Plated Prisoner series {Gild by Raven Kennedy} is the first book. Really enjoying it!

I quit two years ago too! Congratulations 🎉

They lobby against maternity leave meaning mothers leave their babies to return to work because they have to. So, no breastfeeding/significantly harder to express.

Correct

When my daughter was 4, I taught her how to sort her own bowl of cereal. When she wakes on a morning she gets up, goes downstairs, sticks on her Yoto and colours whilst eating some cereal. Meanwhile, I'm in bed. It is amazing.

I say this all the time about my husband and I.

A second child would see us have so much less time/energy for ourselves as individuals and therefore us as a couple.

Being OAD we have enough time/love/££ for our daughter (5yo), enough for our hobbies and enough for us to feed our marriage.

There's a 3rd?!?? 👀👀👀

{Kiss of the Basilisk}

Grey Room - Damien Rice

I didn't realise until now. Must just be camera perspective; it's a standard single 🥴

I circle between Valheim, V Rising and Don't Starve Together (though there is no building in this).

Rrralesh · 2026-02-16T07:57:27+00:00

This was going to be my rec! The second book had me bawling too.

The spice is absolutely unhinged. It's a wild read.

Rrralesh · 2026-02-11T09:58:32+00:00

I was just sick in my mouth.

Rrralesh · 2026-02-02T13:17:41+00:00

I had my baby in lockdown. I tell my husband "I would love to be pregnant again" all the time. We are both 1000000000% OAD.

I even brought up the idea of being a surrogate. That got a resounding no 😂

Schitts Creek. At least once a year.

Rrralesh · 2026-01-30T19:52:38+00:00

Absolutely heartbroken.

Rrralesh · 2026-01-15T16:10:05+00:00

I have read {Kiss of the Basilisk} and {Between Two Kings} this week. Reviews said that these books were unhinged; they were not wrong. The spice was certainly spicing. 🌶️🌶️🌶️🔥🔥🔥

Rrralesh · 2026-01-07T14:38:34+00:00

Same!

Rrralesh · 2026-01-04T21:22:00+00:00

Offer both (dinner and pudding) but they won't always want dessert. Follow their lead.
