Mobile Devices - The Best Working Mom Accessory

Working freelance often means you work flexible, weird hours. Thanks to the internet, you also work in weird locations, and thanks to mobile devices, weird situations. I have had a horror week and weekend, with a project to do, an interview to prepare for and a) husband gone 6/7 days, b) toddler ill for the last 4. Thanks to my laptop and the iPad (I don't have a smart phone, but should if this continues), I have multitasked more than ever before these past days. Today, my son finally slept properly (the past days he just complained and I carried him around), and took full advantage of it. The problem is, he fell asleep on my arm. I was too worried to wake him up by laying him down, so I decided to alternate between preparing for tonight's interview and resting. The best of all worlds. I felt like I got my rest, was there for my sick son, and still caught up on developments at all relevant health organizations. Without my ipad, I would have done either/or, sacrificing my rest to sit at a computer, and risking that my son doesn't sleep at all - or resting myself, feeling anxious that I'm not prepared. My interview (first round) went well, thanks to those who helped and supported me!
