Scalded Flea ...: Magic Tee
http://www.scaldedflea.com/2015/08/magic-tee.html
Saturday, August 8, 2015. Everyone has a favorite article of clothing. Maybe it's a favorite because it makes you feel beautiful, it's super comfy or perhaps it reminds you someone or something. Since then, I have done a lot of things; graduated both high school and university (twice), got married, had kids.and I have worn that shirt through it all. I have been. * ahem* not skinny. What I remember about that is that I hated shopping for clothes and there was a lot of wine. Recently I've noticed that the ...

Scalded Flea ...: This is 40
http://www.scaldedflea.com/2015/08/this-is-40.html
Tuesday, August 11, 2015. People around me are starting to turn 40. It's unbelievable; starting with my friend Debbie, it's now progressed into friends Jen, Josh, Sean, Erin. And the list goes on. What's so weird about that is that in my head I'm truly 17. It's still floors me that I'm expected to "adult ". I genuinely can't get over the fact that we are all officially grown ups. Added bonus this get together was that Wade was around. Wade is the cutest little thing, 6 months, piercing blue eyes and ...

Scalded Flea ...: Happy Birthday
http://www.scaldedflea.com/2011/06/happy-birthday.html
Thursday, June 9, 2011. Happy Birthday to Logan! He turns 6 today. Logan is the sweetest little guy, but he definitely has his tongue firmly in his cheek. I know it gets him in trouble sometimes, but Logan's attitude is one of the things I love best about him. Logan loves everybody, it's so fun to watch him make friends with kids so easily. His happy go lucky nature is something that is very hard to resist. It's going to be crazy! Crazy messed up utterly fantastic life. The sordid tale of the rusty bolt.

Scalded Flea ...: Another week.... time is flying
http://www.scaldedflea.com/2015/07/another-week-time-is-flying.html
Monday, July 20, 2015. Another week. time is flying. I can't believe it has been another week. Brian (Brad's brother) and his mum were staying with us last week so that they could go visit George every day at the Grace hospital. Some days were good, but thursday was not a great day. We hung out, did some fishing, go carting, bike rides (which are infinitely more challenging when not on pavement! Weather was perfect, not too hot, but still sunny and warm. That would be money we would put towards all the c...

Scalded Flea ...: About Me
http://www.scaldedflea.com/p/photos_1077.html
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 houseful 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. I find it cathartic. But it only works if you tell the truth, so that's what my blog is about. The messy sticky truth of a woman making her way through the world. I am married to a wonderful man named Brad. So...

Scalded Flea ...: Downtown
http://www.scaldedflea.com/2015/08/downtown.html
Tuesday, August 11, 2015. I love Downtown, I do. In the summer, it's vibrant with outdoor music, food trucks, farmers markets. Awesome. What is less than awesome is the rampant panhandling that happens in the summer. This one woman in particular had set up a nest. She has blankets, weed and a good set of vocal chords. She sits on her blanket by the window, smoking a joint all the while SCREAMING "SPARE CHANGE! At anyone who walks by. Neither one of which is especially pleasant. Tales from Adenoid Alley.

Scalded Flea ...: I love Winnipeg
http://www.scaldedflea.com/2011/12/i-love-winnipeg.html
Monday, December 5, 2011. Winnipeg is my hometown. Born and Raised. Depending on who you talk to, sentiment regarding our city can be as far ranging as a poster city for violent crime to one of the most generous charitable cities in the nation. Today I had a reminder of how awesome the people in my city are. While running for the bus home tonight, I put my phone in my pocket and made a mad dash for the bus. Once on the bus, I realised, I no longer had my phone. Losing your phone downtown? A woman, cyclin...

Scalded Flea ...: Now THAT is a sale
http://www.scaldedflea.com/2015/08/now-that-is-sale.html
Thursday, August 13, 2015. Now THAT is a sale. It's off the wall. $1,000 for the boys to register, then extra amounts for ice time, travel costs for tournaments and then equipment. This past year Zach has grown by leaps and bounds, surpassing me in height. his feet are a size 7.5 MENS. Logan has grown quite a bit as well, but thankfully is still in youth sizes. The price difference in jumping from youth sizes to adult is shocking. Skates go from $150 for youth to $500. One for Zach and one for Logan.
