Got behaviour?

ever since i joined up to this site 3 days ago..i have done nothing but think "blog"..what will i write today..what should i write today..should i even write today. i find my self being hyper aware of feelings and experiences just on the off chance it might be interesting enough to put into blog format. "can you say OBSESSED?" there are a million other things i should be thinking about but..no....blog thoughts burst in and erase everything else. "sigh"

now i'm sure "more like hoping" that most bloggers start out that way..frantically blogging daily for the first few days, weeks or even months before the novelty wears off and you can go back to functioning like a normal, blog free-ish human being. "oh please tell me its true coz if its not..i'm in serious trouble." but i really can't see it wearing off anytime soon.."another sigh"

so..on my way home this afternoon..i got to thinking. " how can i spend so much time blogging and still feel good about it?"PING, lightbulb goes off* I've got it! "why don't i incoperate my "work" into the blog?" i can fullfil the need i have to blather on about anything and everything and help people at the same time. "cool!...well i think so anyway." so now your probably wondering..."god, what does she do that could possibly help me?" "ah ha!" well what i was thinking was this...i have worked with kids ages 4-12 for 10 years. the first 2.5 were spent working with children with developmental delays, the next 2.5 were spent teaching literacy to JK/SK students but now..for 5 years i have had the honour to be working the job...my, dream job. i am a behavioural consultant. people come to me for advice on how to help children with their behavioural challenges..you know...all those kids with acronyms behind them..ADD/ADHD, OCD, PDD, ODD, FASD, mental health, broken homes, academic delays, bullying, hunger, communication disorders....you name it..i have probably have seen it. i do love my job though....even when it is heartbreakingly hard work, that has been and will continue to be a complete pain in my arse "and i'm not talkin the kids here" i'm talkin the people that surround the kids....its the parents, teachers, EA's, peers and political bull crap that they deal with everyday that are the real problem..and problem sounds harsh..let's say "snag" instead. now in most cases its not from lack of wanting to help..its the frustration of not knowing where or to whom to to for help.

this is where i come in. so i have decided to dedicate part of my blog over to informing and helping "you" and your kids be more successful in school and at home. i will be posting various strategies that can help you , help your child to be more successful. i will post links "once i learn how to do that" to other sites..pointing you "hopefully" in the right direction if i don't have what you need. and because i will soon be a relaxation therapist as well..i'll post stress and anxiety information along with strategies to help your reduce your stress levels. i think its a fair trade. i blog all i want and my consious is free to feel good about it. "sweet"

so..if you have any questions, suggestions, or want to see something specific..let me know k.

cheers
