Welcome back - you have been remembered. In fact, I seem to recall you contemplating some “life event” oriented change in your life - but I could have that wrong and don’t want to state what I recall in case I am either way off base or you don’t wish to discuss it. But IIRC, then I hope it went / is going well… ---
