things that make life easier as a single working mum of three including autistic child

- robot hoover - leave it running in the morning and come back to look for where it has got tangled up in some wire - but full of dust, crumbs, and more!

- internet shopping, especially ocado.com (they claim tesco price match so it has to be good and the drivers are always friendly and on time)

- respite for Ix and good carers

- understanding employer, accepting life's crises and the need to rush off or arrive late....and that I will check emails from home, work late when needed etc in return

- friends both real life and internet - virtual support group friends have saved me on more than one occasion
