Back to work


This week I am back at work as political secretary at the county administration. Since 2006 I have first been fulfilling the task of county commissioner for the Christian Democratic Party for 1 1/2 year, and then, last year I have mainly been on parental leave. So, this week we have spent two days planning for the coming year, the 10 fulltimeworkers of the political majority. Today I have been working with preparations for a coming visit of our Party leader Göran Hägglund.

At the turn of the year, the one working for me during my parental leave, Steven Crosson, moved to Örebro, and I had to go back to work. So my wife quit her job teaching at a high school, and started working at our day-care cooperative.

It feels a bit odd coming home and finding everthing tidy and in order, and once again fullfilling the task of a political secretary. So I am now looking forward to the rest of the spring.
