Motherhood, autism, middle age, atheism, equality, being happy. http://istandquietly.com

Wife to hunky, hirsute and high maintenance award-winning advertising creative. Together 20 years and counting, best friend, soul mate etc.

Mother to sparklingly bright and stunning beautiful daughter with autism spectrum disorder and torturously bad sensory processing problems. Currently home educating.

Daughter-in-law to well-meaning but overbearing and sharp-tongued mother-in-law who lives in glamorous GILF annexe in our house.

Used to be trendy, sassy and had successful-ish career in business. Now fat, tired and dowdy and wondering how it all ended up like this.
