Description
I'm back home between road trip stops, and honestly? I mostly did nothing — and it was great. This episode is about what "break" actually looks like for me: hibernating, hanging with friends, and getting back into school mode.
In this episode:
Going full hibernation mode for a few days (sleep, clean, eat, repeat)
A friend hangout that "went a little crazy" — hide and seek, an over-enthusiastic dog, and three hours of doing basically nothing
A day trip to a nearby college town with playgrounds, shops, and way too many slushies
Flying solo on a plane both ways for the first time — and what it's actually like when strangers feel sorry for you
Getting back into my reading-for-stickers system now that school's back on
Roadschooling bit: This one's less about a new place and more about how school works when you're not on the road yet — my sticker system for reading minutes, and what it's like jumping back into lessons after time off.
Middle School Miles follows Sharlotte's cross-country road trip — school on the road, new places, and everything in between.
