    Usually pairs! But I always end up losing a sock when I do my washing. I have no idea where it goes, so I've some pairs of odd socks! :D
    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    Sometimes I lose a sock when doing the washing as well and that can be really annoying. Or a sock gets quite a big hole in so has to be thrown away as it can't really be used anymore.

    Love this…

    I usually just throw my socks all in the draw not paired up, is that bad? Haha

    The steps you take don’t need to be big, they just need to take you in the right direction.

    Always pairs, unless there’s one lost and then there’s one little lonely sock hanging around :lol: but otherwise I always make an effort to pair them properly.

    Pairs unless 1 has gone missing then it gets left on the top of my keyboard.
    Some people think I am unhappy. I'm not. I just approach silence in the world that never stops talking.

    Naughty munch. Munch is the new name for the washing machine.

    Like the others have said, they start as pairs until half go missing either in the washing machine or in my sisters room instead.

    A pack of socks probably doesn't last more than a week in my house before they're all seperated =)
