Author: Addicted To Teaching
I am an Air Force veteran turned middle school teacher and Florida native. After my oldest son graduated college and began his career, my husband and I decided to take our youngest son, 2 dogs and the tortoise and start our adventure as full time RVers early. We currently travel around Florida, our home state, exploring places we've loved and dreamed of seeing, learning to live like locals. We will eventually explore the US, but why not start at home?
I blog about all things teaching, traveling and family--where ever inspiration takes me.

My Experience with Intermittent Fasting
September 9, 2022 When you have a lot of food allergies, eating can be an annoyance, or even life threatening. Add in the stress of modern life and it is very easy to overeat or eat poorly.

Less Gamification In the Classroom
August 30, 2022 Gamification has been a big thing in Education for several years, and why not?
