Well, as 2008 begins… it became obvious that 2007 wasn’t really a settling in year… but more of a break before the marathon began again.
2008 marked the year we packed up our entire lives, joined the Foreign Service, moved to Washington DC… then moved to Belgrade, Serbia. Incidentally, just before leaving Atlanta I launched SchutzHappens with a post titled “SchutzHappens 101”… and then on my first day in Washington, DC I followed with my second post simple titled “Day 1”.
In addition, my departure from Cobb County couldn’t have come at a better time. Shortly after leaving, due to the economic crisis, the Cobb County Commissioners announced a hiring freeze that wrecked havoc on the already understaffed Cultural Affairs Division… two and a half years later, to the best of my knowledge… that hire freeze is still in place, even after forcing all employees eligible for retirement out the door.
