About

Welcome to Mindless Mommy Dot Com.

My name is Melissa and I am your site owner.  I am 30-something and have two children on the autism spectrum.  I felt compelled to blog about my experiences as a parent to children dealing with autism, Asperger’s Syndrome, anxiety, ADHD, asthma, epilepsy, and sensory processing disorder.  My children have had occupational therapy, speech therapy, play therapy, and have participated in social skills groups – among other things.  This blog is dedicated to our life. To learn more about why I chose the name Mutterings of a Mindless Mommy, read my introduction from March 2007.

In addition to my life as a mom, I am also a freelance writer as well as a student.  I currently write for two environmental blogs in addition to several topical blogs that I own.  I will be graduating with a degree in Technical Communications from Arizona State University in May 2010.
