It can mean darling, dear, dreamy, pretty much any adjective that begins with a "d" even darned - if you're so inclined. LOL At least that's how I've been taught
If they agree to the you getting more goats, chickens, horse, etc. then definately Dear or Darling.
If they say no to that new goat, horse, or chickens, then Darn, Depressing, etc.
