Hello Friends and Family:
So I guess it's been more than a year since I've posted here. The heaps of shame that have been piled on me for not writing were high, but apparently not high enough for me to get over the writing hurdle!
This will be the last (ha!) post in this space, as life in Swaziland is no longer TBD -- at least for this chapter. As many/most of you know, I left my role with CHAI-Swaziland as of early December after 2.5 years there. After a six-week visit to the US, Erin and I have relocated to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. I'm still working for CHAI, still primarily on HIV care and treatment, though my focus now will be more broadly on health system and HIV long-term financing.
The best news out of all of this is that I now have a new blogging strategy! I've enlisted a co-author, who I know to be much better at this than me, because he r Swaziland blog lasted for three out of her four-plus years in Swaziland. Erin has already posted three times in our first three weeks, so while I don't expect we'll maintain that rate of posting, I do hope we'll be more consistent.
So, please redirect your bookmarks to the following site to keep up with our lives, as best as we are able to share them: http://erinandgarrettabroad.blogspot.com. Make sure to include the "abroad" part, or you'll be stuck reading about some other Erin and Garrett from Texas who haven't posted since 2006. At least we're more recent than them!
I don't think there's a way for me to forward the automatic emails that many of you have been receiving from this TBD blog to the new page, but if you'll forgive us the minor inconvenience you can again subscribe to receive our posts by email by heading over to the new site. Again, that's: http://erinandgarrettabroad.blogspot.com/
If you haven't seen it already

In case you missed it: http://erinandgarrettabroad.blogspot.com/
We'll do our best to keep you posted! Someday we may even reflect on our Swaziland experience, but given how busy we already find ourselves in Addis, I wouldn't hold your breath. Maybe it will suffice to say that we had enough fun that we wanted to try another African country.
Happy 2013 to all. Let me know if you have any trouble finding the new site and/or subscribing to emails.

P.S. Keep the heaps of shame coming! I don't think I would have even written half as much without them.
