We remember Thanksgiving Day 2007 when our in-box produced a job offer for a school in North Africa. It had been a long time in coming!
In June we had sensed the time to pack up from California and limp across country on a farewell tour in our aged Oldsmobile. We got all the way to New Jersey with no jobs in sight, and thus we stayed there for months through the job-hunting process. Many walked on this journey with us as waited. And then, Thanksgiving Day we got the job offer that would fast-track us down a crazy - but good crazy kind of journey. We're standing on the other side of that journey now, wondering what is next. And we're thankful; very, very thankful.
(Also thankful to have a Thanksgiving in the USA again, complete with all the trimmings and traditions! I love holidays :)
