Louise ponders 'going it alone'

A new local blog that might strike chords with many families working to keep home and family together has just been started by Louise O'Gorman, who last year set up her own after school care business, Iuvenes, writes Brian Byrne.

Her first post is a very personal one, 'Going it Alone'. Like many couples, she and her husband are now in the position where one spouse has to be away for periods of time due to work needs. It's a different take on one-parent (temporarily) families.

Thought provoking, especially as we climb out of the worst of the recession. There are more jobs, but not always where it suits. Worth a read.
