That's a good idea--I'll check into some of that. The problem in terms of "farming out" was that before, I might have, say, gone to a yoga class. I can theoretically do that online now, but it's not the same at all.
We also haven't been doing any sessions with D's T, except for one where H and I met with her in the early days of the pandemic, because therapy online doesn't work for D. So saving some money there, I guess (also not paying for her aftercare at school).
I am in some Facebook groups for parents with kids on the spectrum (some local, some not), so maybe I should lean on them a bit more (bonus: no charge). I think there's a support group that also meets monthly, but it's now online--can't recall if I'm still a member of that organization but will check (and can always rejoin). Though I think I tried to get online for a support group once, and I was the only one there, so waited 10 minutes and left.
