Hi, I'm Jodi. Let's see... what do you need to know...30 something - Mother of two boys (I am up to my eyeballs in a housefull of testosterone). I am an accountant by day, but I seem to find things to fill every single moment of time through volunteering and writing.
As I mentioned, I like to write, so from time to time I will publish articles on the Technorati womens website: Technorati Women
I have never been (or professed to be for that matter) an athlete, but with a goal of staying healthy (which I refer to on my blog as my AMJ or Ass Minimizing Journey) and promoting a balanced lifestyle for my kids, I do my best to make healthy choices and exercise when I can. My husband is a IronMan athlete and is very fit, which is not only easy on the eyes, but it also very inspiring and motivating.
I have become somewhat of an expert on ADHD as my eldest son was diagnosed in 2011. Parents of ADHD children out there... I know what you're going through. I am always on the search for things that can help my son make his way through the world. We have found things that work. (Top Ten Tips for parents of ADHD kids) and things that don't. I focus the majority of my energy on the successes that we have found and try my best to learn from the things that didn't. My son is a big bouquet of awesome. He has a passion for life and such a strong sense of empathy and kindness, qualities that I truely admire.
My youngest son is a seeker of knowledge. He wants to know everything about everything and is constantly asking for information on topics as wide ranging as the use of your Uvula to Vampire Squids. He speaks like a well read 30 year old which makes for some interesting conversations. He is one of the most accepting children, he makes everyone feel welcome and loved. I can't count how many time parents have come up to me telling me how wonderful he is. I don't think I can take credit for it, it's all him. He never fails to make me laugh and is one of the funniest people I have the pleasure of knowing.
I am married to a wonderful (and very tolerant of my random ways) man named Brad. So much has happened in this decade of marriage. University, Houses, Babies, New Jobs... all very exciting. Brad is my rock - he keeps me grounded and sometimes I don't think I show him exactly how much I adore him. Something I have recently made a point of correcting.
So there you have it....the trials and tribulations of my life of mayhem is documented here on Scalded Flea.
Home Sweet Home.
