<v Speaker 2>And we allay cheers, cheers for what? Cheers for another day,

0:00:36.881 --> 0:00:42.081
<v Speaker 2>another day of sanity and all being on the same bus. Patience, patience,

0:00:42.200 --> 0:00:44.001
<v Speaker 2>what else? Moments of reflection.

0:00:44.480 --> 0:00:47.720
<v Speaker 1>Someone sent me this on Instagram. It says, whoever invented

0:00:47.801 --> 0:00:51.321
<v Speaker 1>slime and then made a YouTube video how to show

0:00:51.441 --> 0:00:54.881
<v Speaker 1>kids how to make slime? I hope you step on lego?

0:00:56.361 --> 0:00:59.481
<v Speaker 2>Isn't it funny? Slime and lego both things that I

0:00:59.521 --> 0:01:01.481
<v Speaker 2>don't overly love.

0:01:02.361 --> 0:01:05.360
<v Speaker 1>Don't even get me started on slime. We've talked about

0:01:05.361 --> 0:01:08.521
<v Speaker 1>this before. It ruins carpets, It ruins furniture, It gets

0:01:08.521 --> 0:01:17.200
<v Speaker 1>in hair, It does my head, and I hate it.

0:01:20.761 --> 0:01:24.241
<v Speaker 2>Am I a bad mum for sending my child to

0:01:24.321 --> 0:01:27.840
<v Speaker 2>singing lessons? After the dentist? After the dentist?

0:01:29.161 --> 0:01:30.801
<v Speaker 1>What does she have to have done at the dentist?

0:01:32.161 --> 0:01:35.321
<v Speaker 2>I feel like a bad mum even opening this conversation up,

0:01:35.401 --> 0:01:38.240
<v Speaker 2>because I've had this conversation with our dentists, going why

0:01:38.560 --> 0:01:41.280
<v Speaker 2>what are we doing wrong? She's getting a feeling at

0:01:41.321 --> 0:01:43.761
<v Speaker 2>the back on one of her big teeth like a

0:01:43.801 --> 0:01:46.761
<v Speaker 2>moler at the back. Yeah, And I sort of went

0:01:46.801 --> 0:01:48.240
<v Speaker 2>straight in and just was like.

0:01:48.121 --> 0:01:49.081
<v Speaker 1>What are we doing wrong?

0:01:49.481 --> 0:01:51.841
<v Speaker 2>Why's her teeth needing fillings? She's seven?

0:01:52.081 --> 0:01:54.521
<v Speaker 1>You can need a feeling from overbrushing.

0:01:55.081 --> 0:01:57.441
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I don't know that. That's my problem with my children.

0:01:58.241 --> 0:02:00.321
<v Speaker 2>I feel like all I do is shove that toothbrush

0:02:00.401 --> 0:02:02.281
<v Speaker 2>right down their throat just to try and brush them

0:02:02.281 --> 0:02:04.681
<v Speaker 2>every night. I'm still helping out with brushing their teeth

0:02:04.681 --> 0:02:05.001
<v Speaker 2>every night.

0:02:05.081 --> 0:02:09.361
<v Speaker 1>It can be certain things like fruit juice. Like fruit

0:02:09.401 --> 0:02:12.001
<v Speaker 1>juice is good, like proper orange juice is really good

0:02:12.001 --> 0:02:15.560
<v Speaker 1>for you, But it's the acidity and the sugars that are.

0:02:15.401 --> 0:02:18.161
<v Speaker 2>In it you can Yeah, she is more of the

0:02:18.361 --> 0:02:22.321
<v Speaker 2>juice drinker. Both My children wouldn't know what soft drink is,

0:02:22.321 --> 0:02:24.281
<v Speaker 2>so I don't have to worry about that. I know

0:02:24.321 --> 0:02:24.921
<v Speaker 2>what you mean, though.

0:02:25.321 --> 0:02:27.120
<v Speaker 1>Do you think it sounds bad when you say my

0:02:27.201 --> 0:02:29.121
<v Speaker 1>kid needs a filling at age seven?

0:02:29.240 --> 0:02:32.601
<v Speaker 2>Seven? Yeah? Why is her teeth falling apart at seven?

0:02:32.761 --> 0:02:35.880
<v Speaker 1>Because you don't want to grow eat lollies all day long?

0:02:36.001 --> 0:02:39.721
<v Speaker 2>No, she's a fruit bat though, Like I'm talking, proper

0:02:39.881 --> 0:02:45.961
<v Speaker 2>fruit bat, always eating fruit. Yes, fruit yes, Elsie said

0:02:46.001 --> 0:02:48.921
<v Speaker 2>that too. Elsie chimed in and was like, oh, because

0:02:48.960 --> 0:02:51.441
<v Speaker 2>you love those fruits. She always calls it fruits. I

0:02:51.441 --> 0:02:53.161
<v Speaker 2>don't know why she thinks it's more than one, but

0:02:53.240 --> 0:02:56.161
<v Speaker 2>she says, you're always eating the fruits, and so she

0:02:56.321 --> 0:02:58.481
<v Speaker 2>thinks that that's the reason. So that would be another

0:02:58.520 --> 0:03:01.001
<v Speaker 2>reason for her never to eat fruit in her whole entire.

0:03:02.881 --> 0:03:05.721
<v Speaker 1>Any fruit or vegetables. And now she's seeing her sister

0:03:05.841 --> 0:03:08.560
<v Speaker 1>has to go and have a filling because she eats

0:03:08.601 --> 0:03:09.641
<v Speaker 1>fruit and vegetables.

0:03:09.721 --> 0:03:13.201
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I know. So basically as we do, and coming

0:03:13.201 --> 0:03:16.601
<v Speaker 2>out of isolation, everything's like coming slowly back to normal.

0:03:16.761 --> 0:03:19.721
<v Speaker 2>And so I'm jam packing the kids' lives again, which

0:03:19.721 --> 0:03:23.000
<v Speaker 2>we said that we wouldn't do. But she's got singing lessons,

0:03:23.041 --> 0:03:26.840
<v Speaker 2>and the amount of joy that my child gets when

0:03:26.841 --> 0:03:29.120
<v Speaker 2>she walks out of singing lessons, I'm not seeing her

0:03:29.201 --> 0:03:30.081
<v Speaker 2>like this with anything.

0:03:30.161 --> 0:03:34.001
<v Speaker 1>Does she get her singing voice from you? Do you think, yes,

0:03:36.001 --> 0:03:36.961
<v Speaker 1>you're a good singer?

0:03:37.041 --> 0:03:40.041
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely? I know. Yeah, I can't sing and don't have

0:03:40.121 --> 0:03:43.041
<v Speaker 2>a musical sort of note in my body, but that's okay.

0:03:43.121 --> 0:03:45.321
<v Speaker 2>You've got to accept not being good at things.

0:03:45.081 --> 0:03:47.001
<v Speaker 1>As long as you like listening. To it. I love

0:03:47.201 --> 0:03:50.121
<v Speaker 1>listening to my own singing. No one else does.

0:03:50.561 --> 0:03:53.121
<v Speaker 2>I like it. It was really good in the shower

0:03:53.121 --> 0:03:56.281
<v Speaker 2>when no one else is listening. So she comes out

0:03:56.281 --> 0:03:58.321
<v Speaker 2>with these vibes. So I thought, oh shit, now I've

0:03:58.361 --> 0:04:00.361
<v Speaker 2>got a dentist. So I've got a rush. And we

0:04:00.441 --> 0:04:02.641
<v Speaker 2>go to a dentist on the other side of Brisbane,

0:04:02.761 --> 0:04:04.921
<v Speaker 2>so we've got to pick her up. Do the dentist

0:04:05.121 --> 0:04:07.681
<v Speaker 2>come back? And she was like, no, but I cannot

0:04:08.201 --> 0:04:12.041
<v Speaker 2>miss singing. Cannot can't, I said, but you can under stand.

0:04:11.961 --> 0:04:14.561
<v Speaker 1>For a second, how come you go to a dentist

0:04:14.681 --> 0:04:16.801
<v Speaker 1>that's over the other side of town. You know that

0:04:16.841 --> 0:04:22.241
<v Speaker 1>there's a dentist like on every other street everywhere. I

0:04:22.281 --> 0:04:25.681
<v Speaker 1>don't know what it is, your childhood dentist.

0:04:25.761 --> 0:04:28.361
<v Speaker 2>No, it's not my childhood, but but I really like him.

0:04:28.481 --> 0:04:30.201
<v Speaker 1>Did he give you a sticker?

0:04:30.401 --> 0:04:33.561
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? It gave me a real pad on the back

0:04:34.521 --> 0:04:37.681
<v Speaker 2>brush every time, they're amazing.

0:04:38.361 --> 0:04:42.081
<v Speaker 1>Do you always take the little toothpaste samples the samples?

0:04:42.201 --> 0:04:42.441
<v Speaker 2>Yes?

0:04:42.641 --> 0:04:45.281
<v Speaker 1>Do you get your kids to give you your pocket?

0:04:46.201 --> 0:04:49.681
<v Speaker 2>No, because they give us a bag every time. So

0:04:49.801 --> 0:04:51.801
<v Speaker 2>any appointment that we go, we get a little kit bag.

0:04:51.880 --> 0:04:53.001
<v Speaker 2>You leave with a kit bag.

0:04:53.281 --> 0:04:55.081
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but then you can get the extra ones that

0:04:55.201 --> 0:04:56.601
<v Speaker 1>reception the samples.

0:04:57.561 --> 0:05:00.481
<v Speaker 2>They've got apples on the desk, so yeah, I know

0:05:00.641 --> 0:05:01.960
<v Speaker 2>it's healthy as well.

0:05:01.880 --> 0:05:06.881
<v Speaker 1>Good for your teeth. That's too many apple there.

0:05:07.201 --> 0:05:09.681
<v Speaker 2>No, I don't know why I do it. Do you

0:05:09.721 --> 0:05:11.721
<v Speaker 2>want to know another weird fact about me? Here we

0:05:11.761 --> 0:05:13.601
<v Speaker 2>go throw myself under the bush.

0:05:13.721 --> 0:05:14.880
<v Speaker 1>God, what's going to be?

0:05:17.681 --> 0:05:21.640
<v Speaker 2>He always smells nice. His after shave is really nice.

0:05:21.721 --> 0:05:23.481
<v Speaker 2>And I don't have a crush on him. And he's

0:05:23.481 --> 0:05:27.320
<v Speaker 2>married and I'm married, and it's fine. But somebody smells nice.

0:05:27.801 --> 0:05:31.001
<v Speaker 1>Drive across the other side of town to the dentist

0:05:31.121 --> 0:05:32.361
<v Speaker 1>for Is that.

0:05:32.320 --> 0:05:38.601
<v Speaker 2>What you're saying? Okay, alright, say let's go back to

0:05:38.641 --> 0:05:41.760
<v Speaker 2>my child. This is the reason why I feel very comfortable.

0:05:41.961 --> 0:05:43.840
<v Speaker 2>I really love them. They're an amazing team.

0:05:44.041 --> 0:05:45.520
<v Speaker 1>But oh now it's the team.

0:05:45.561 --> 0:05:50.041
<v Speaker 2>It's not just the nice it's just him when I

0:05:50.081 --> 0:05:53.841
<v Speaker 2>only see him. But yeah, so I feel comfortable with him,

0:05:53.880 --> 0:05:56.601
<v Speaker 2>hence my children going there. So then she's going back

0:05:56.721 --> 0:06:01.321
<v Speaker 2>with a numb face to try and do singing lessons

0:06:01.320 --> 0:06:03.961
<v Speaker 2>a video. I'm not lad in.

0:06:03.921 --> 0:06:07.001
<v Speaker 1>The room because she can't even talk. When you've had

0:06:07.041 --> 0:06:08.281
<v Speaker 1>your teeth number.

0:06:08.201 --> 0:06:10.441
<v Speaker 2>I can imagine it's probably gonna be really numb because

0:06:10.481 --> 0:06:14.281
<v Speaker 2>it's one of the big molars at the back. It's

0:06:14.320 --> 0:06:17.921
<v Speaker 2>going to be great, isn't it. She almost she'll probably

0:06:18.001 --> 0:06:19.201
<v Speaker 2>drill as she's singing.

0:06:19.320 --> 0:06:21.481
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, there are other kids there is it just

0:06:21.521 --> 0:06:23.521
<v Speaker 1>a private lesson lesson? Thank goodness.

0:06:23.561 --> 0:06:25.681
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't make her do that. That'd be terrible. If

0:06:25.721 --> 0:06:26.961
<v Speaker 2>there's someone else in the room.

0:06:27.081 --> 0:06:30.761
<v Speaker 1>It's going to be terrible anyway. She's going to be

0:06:30.921 --> 0:06:33.600
<v Speaker 1>dribbling it when she won't be able to say a word,

0:06:34.161 --> 0:06:37.521
<v Speaker 1>you know when you have that numbness horn.

0:06:42.241 --> 0:06:51.320
<v Speaker 2>I'm saying you sound, and then she's going to be

0:06:51.361 --> 0:06:51.841
<v Speaker 2>singing it.

0:07:00.521 --> 0:07:03.841
<v Speaker 1>Am I a bad mom for sending my child to

0:07:04.081 --> 0:07:14.041
<v Speaker 1>seeing lessons? After yes your own Homan.

0:07:12.081 --> 0:07:20.321
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna ask to at least record a snippet ah

0:07:20.881 --> 0:07:25.321
<v Speaker 2>ship We do, No, you do.
