Say it ain't so! What a beautiful way to end your trips with your DD's. How wonderful you could dream of it and then make it happen. I would bet it's something they will want to do someday when they have their own families. Thank you for sharing your life and stories with all of us. I'm certain I'm not the only one who looked for a new post every morning. I sent you a friend request on FB but I understand if you've got more than enough friends. It would be so nice to hear "the rest of the story". Hope to see a PTR one of these days. Until then.......take care and the best to you and your family!

 

[mymainmouse]

So sorry to see your trip report come to an end. Even though I didn't always comment I enjoyed reading along. You always inspired me to eat better, work harder, and save more! Will be watching for future PTRs! Take Care and God Bless!

 

[jkfandel]

NOOOOOOOO. So many years of reading your reports, seeing your creations and daily life updates. This saddens me more than I care to admit. Thank you for sharing your family with all of us.
Jane

 

[andera42]

I'm going to miss you! Thanks for sharing your trips and your life updates. I hope you have continued success at your debt free life and health and happiness in the future.

 

[Sweetly]

Say it isn't so! You can't leave us!! (for now anyways) Thank you for sharing a personal part of your life with us. I have tremendously loved following along on your adventures.
Sorry that I haven't been around, but things have been super busy. You will be missed. Hope your dad is doing well. Continued success on your debt being paid off. Plus I wish you, Josh, the girls and your furry little children the best!!

 

[DMGeurts]

Sorry all - that I haven't been back to do replies... It's been a crazy week here! I'll work on a few replies today - and more over the weekend to try to catch up.

I'm so sad to see this trip report coming to an end and no new PTR started It has been so fun getting to know you through your reports here on the DIS and it was really fun meeting you at MOA 1 1\2 years ago.

I'm so sorry to hear about your dad. I'm glad to hear he is fine now.
It can't be easy being so far away from him.

How fun that you found an old photo of your house.

Crossing my fingers that you will find airfares for V's trip that aren't too expensive.

Awwwh - I"ve truly enjoyed our friendship... I'll be back to writing again soon - I am sure... It may be a few weeks or it may be a few months - but I won't be gone forever.

Yes - he is home and doing well now.

That was neat to find - I've been searching forever for old photos of our house - they just don't exist.

We have airfare now... It wasn't terrible - not as low as it was a few weeks ago, but not as bad as Allison's was either. Just thankful to have that done.

Awwww I'm so sad to see your report come to an end! I am like you, I know a trip is in our future, but I have no real idea what the dates will be, so no pre trip report for me either. I hope you'll be able to start one soon, though. I've enjoyed hearing about your healthy living and seeing all the great pictures!

Thanks! I do hope to start one soon... I just know it will be a bit... For sure, a few weeks - but it could be longer. We'll see...

I am glad you've enjoyed reading about our travels and our lives.

Sad to see the trip report end, but what a blessing to have these memories with your girls. Uggggh about the airfare. I was waiting for cheaper airfare for my 17 yo son's trip this summer, and it just increased. Crossing my fingers it drops again. I also need to buy airfare for Orlando in October but I'm not sure the best/cheapest time to do that. Thankfully I have enough reward points for 3 tickets if I can find the right price. Thanks for all your updates. You have been such a positive influence to me over the past few months.

Me too - it's so hard to not have anything to write about... I hope to start a PTR soon, I just don't know when that will be...

I was able to purchase airfare for V on Tuesday morning - it wasn't as low as it was when I'd seen it in Feb... but it wasn't as terribly high as Allison's was either - so I was happy with that. And it was under budget - so I was able to chuck a little bit of the remaining at debt. Win/win!

I am not sure that there is a "good time" to buy airfare to Orlando... That is just something I watch constantly and load it several times per day... and I buy when it's an acceptable price for me. That's awesome that you have enough points for a few tickets!

You are very welcome - I hope to be back to writing soon!

It's so sad seeing your trip report coming to an end. I'll miss 'talking' to you.
I remember me last trip with my daughter before she got married. It was so much fun as we have similar touring styles at Disney. We both like to get up early. Her husband likes to take his time. That's not bad, but I'm used to moving faster and doing more.
Is V. going to college in the Fall? Eight weeks is still a nice long visit with family. It's hard to believe that Thomas is starting school already.
To answer your question, yes I'll still be in electronics. Right now, they schedule me 2 or 3 days in wireless and the rest in electronics. In May, it'll be all electronics.
How cool that you found those old pictures of your house. I do have wonder what the person that cover up the window and door was thinking. It's a wonder the whole wall didn't collapse.
Have a good day.
Liz

I know - I am missing all of you already... It's difficult!

These last trips have been amazing - I hope to continue them one day...

I am 99% sure that V is, for sure, waiting until Spring to start college... Possibly the following fall... We kind of learned our lesson with Allison and now she is having to pay for it - literally - so this time, instead of forcing her to go to college right away, we are giving her some time to save $$ first... As, even though they only have to pay for their "spending" portion in Europe - it's still an expense for them.

I am happy that you get to stay in electronics, I miss it for sure!

Yes - those pictures are cool! No kidding! That's what we thought too - it's a miracle that it didn't collapse... The way our house was built, is that the 2x4s go from foundation to roof... There was originally 12 of them that did the entire span... Once they did all of their cutting - there were 2 left! We were very lucky! Now it's fine though - Josh rebuilt the entire thing, and it's likely better than new.

Thanks Liz - same to you!

I love the pictures of Victoria through the years. I also liked the house pictures. I know I've seen some before but I don't remember the window with the duct tape. I have heard many stories about things that are found after inspections. It's kind of scary and you are really lucky to have Josh.

Sorry to hear you won't be chatting with us anymore. I will hope that you can go again and that way we can continue to watch you and your girls take trips together. It would be interesting to hear how you paid off all your debts too. Keep up the good work.

I decided to rent that house for 2 weeks in March. I talked my husband into moving and told him maybe they won't be able to rent that year and we could still get it. I liked what you said about saving the best house for last. And since it will be spring break and busy, if my daughter's family can't come we will just relax and swim our last week.

Glad your dad is ok. My dad took a trip to the hospital while we were in Florida. He fell and his friend couldn't get him up. But they checked him out and sent him home. He is 87 and does pretty well most of the time.

Thank you for all your trip reports and I hope to see another one in the future.
Robyn

I am glad you enjoyed them!

Yes - that was crazy... And that was the first wall we did... So, at that point, we feared that the rest of the house was the same way... Thankfully - that was really the worst of it... We found other problems through out the project - but that really was the worst.

I'll likely still be doing replies for a week or two - LOL - so I won't fade into oblivion quite yet. I've been thinking about starting some sort of private group on Facebook to follow our debt pay off progress... I haven't decided how I am going to do that yet - but at this point, I am not sure I want our entire family knowing about this - yet I want to inspire. So, we'll see.

Yay!! I am glad you got that house! It will be a fun trip for sure!

Oh no!! I am relieved to hear that your dad is OK - it's so scary when that happens!

Thank you - I've very much enjoyed writing them and developing some wonderful friendships here over the years - I sure hope it won't be too long until I get back to writing again.

I really enjoyed reading your trip report & all of the old pictures. Thanks for sharing your family memories with us.

Awwwh! I am so glad you've enjoyed them! Hopefully I will be back to writing soon!

I have truly enjoyed following your trip reports. You are really good at writing interesting posts. I'm sure that you are not finished taking trips to Disney with your girls. They loved them, too.

Give us a heads up if and when you start another trip report. I look forward to reading them again.

Awwwh - thanks Sue, sometimes I wonder how interesting I really am? I just "talk" after all. LOL

Oh no - we aren't done... We are just taking a break. I truly do hope to be writing a new PTR within a few weeks... It may be slow going at first - but I am sure I'll be back soon!

I will definitely try! I will miss you all, for sure!

*************************************************************************************************************

I didn't mean to fall off the face of the Earth quite so abruptly... Life just kind of got away from me this week!

I've been working out and eating well... Doing quite decent with my "no grains for Lent"... I am feeling pretty good about my health these days. It's been nice enough - barely - for me to get out and walk... And since my workload has been manageable over these last weeks - I have committed to walking a few afternoons per week. Although - my shins aren't exactly liking me at the moment - hopefully they shape up soon.

Work has been going well too - I am staying busy there. I have a really good schedule these days - now that I am not going to Target/Starbucks/Chipotle nearly every day - I've been able to get a lot accomplished, and it feels great!

Debt pay off is going really well too... Even though we haven't had any pay days... Sticking to the budget in between pay days is just as important to the process - if not more so. As I said above - I am thinking of starting a private group on FB to follow along on our debt free journey and inspire those who wish to be inspired... If this is something that interests you - please let me know and I'll see about doing something along these lines... We are on schedule to pay off another debt this week - so the snowball is rollin' quite nicely at this point.

Along those lines - we were able to purchase V's airfare for Europe on Tuesday... The flights weren't nearly as cheap as they were in Feb, but we were able to find one that worked for just a bit more... So, it was less than we budgeted and we were able to throw the excess towards debt. So, it's official - V is going to Europe this summer... And I will be home crying. Again.

The amount of "found money" that we've been able to locate since really planning out our budget and sticking to it is quite scary... To think - for months & years - we've always had that $$ and have no idea where it went... Well, except for Disney - a good portion went to them. But the rest... No idea... Nothing to show for it. Sad.

That's about all...

Looking ahead...

It's Dad's 70th birthday on Monday... I've managed to coordinate a VERY SMALL surprise party for him this coming weekend... I wish that more people could come, and I am sort of bummed that many of them who were invited cannot... but there will be a few special people there - and hopefully he will enjoy it.

The girls are doing well... I haven't said anything here... Along with working and taking care of her financial self - Allison and Gus are dating again.... Though we don't feel this is the best choice for her at this time, we trust her to make her own decisions - and if this is what she wants... Well, she is 18... As long as she is able to stay committed to her plan to get things paid off and go back to school - then we will support her decision.

V is doing great! She is saving like crazy for her trip to Europe this summer... She is putting away the entirety of every pay check and just living on her tips. She will have a good amount of cash to go over with and she will get to do a lot of great things while she is there. She is also really enjoying having the freedom to drive - it's been really good for her... This weekend - we are working on "Jeep driving lessons" - since it's a manual transmission, and we believe that everyone should have this skill.

That's it! Pretty boring - as usual. I am missing all of you and promise to be back tomorrow to work on more replies.

Prayers and pixie dust to all!

[andera42]

I would like to be included on your FB budget group. I am really trying to set my budget and follow it.

 

[missjackiemcg]

I am thinking of starting a private group on FB to follow along on our debt free journey and inspire those who wish to be inspired...

You definitely put repayment of debt on my radar, I have to say!! I would definitely like to be included if you decide to do something like this. In fact, I was paying bills the other day and figured out how I will be able to send extra money toward our car payment to get it paid off hopefully this year instead of late next year.....fingers crossed

 

[Terkina]

I'm so glad to see a new post from you here on the DIS.

How great that your eating and work outs are going well. It's great that you feel good about your health these days

How great that work is going well and that you are getting a lot done.

I'm glad to hear debt pay off is going really well as well. Sticking to budget in between pay days is important so you have the money when it's time to pay the debt bill.

A private facebook group to follow along on your debt free journey sounds like a great idea. I would love to follow you in that group.

How great that you have purchase V's airfare to Europe. It's great that V is able to save so much of her pay check so she will have spending money when going to Europe.

What a shame that not everyone you invited to your dad's 70th birthday can come to the party. At least some of the people you invited are coming and I'm sure you all will have a great time together with your dad.

How exciting that Allsion and Gus are dating again. Crossing my fingers Allison can stay focused on her work and paying off her debt to the school and then get back to school.

I think it's great that you want to teach V how to drive a car with a manual transmission. Not every car is automatic and when you want to rent a car outside of the USA most of the rental car are manual transmission and a car with automatic cost a lot more to rent.


On Saturday I'm going to a meeting a 2 hours drive from Tromsø. Of course I will try to find some geocaching a long the way. I haven't driven my new car outside of Tromsø yet. So it will be a good opportunity to try and drive it on the freeway.

 

[rpcvpanama]

Ahh, so sad your trip report is ending. I have been following along with them for what seems like years now! I am more of a lurker than a poster, though. I would love to be included in your Dave Ramsey Debt group. I started DR this year...not without a few hiccups but it is working! Good luck with your DR journey and hope to see a PTR soon!

[lovesdumbo]

I'm so sad that this TR is coming to an end. Loved following along with your special one on one trips-such a special time! Loved all your photos!

So wonderful that Allison is doing so well at work! Hope things work out well with Gus.

Victoria is so talented! LOVE her artwork! Congrats to her on her license too! Good luck with the manual transmission training! It is a lost art. I drove a standard until my commute became 12 1/2 miles with about 50 traffic lights.

Congrats to you on your progress to being debt free!

Happy Birthday to your Dad! I'm sure he'll love your surprise!


My trip with Lizzy to look at Penn State & Oswego was really wonderful. It was nice to spend those 6 days with her one on one (she won't go to Disney with me). She did end up committing to Oswego before we left. So great to have that decision made. She really felt at home there. I'm sure it will be a very good fit for her. This senior year is just flying by. She recently won a recycled art contest for a portrait she did using magazine photos (I'll text you a picture). She took a math placement test for Oswego. She need to get 23 correct to be placed in Calculus. She knew taking the test that she made 2 stupid mistakes but you can't go back to change a previous question. She only got 22 right. Now she has to do online tutorials before they let her take the test again. She won't sign up for orientation til she gets that done but we can't plan our family trip until we know what orientation she's going to. She's not real happy with me nagging her.

Joe's going to West Virginia in July for a Boy Scout Jamboree. I really want to take Emma to Disney in August but I have to wait til I know what Orientation Lizzy is attending. I am going to Disney for my birthday in about 40 days. I'm looking forward to just a nice quiet, relaxing trip. Staying at Bay Lake Tower on my DVC points. I still have points I carried forward from last year that I have to use before Feb 2018 and all of this years points so it would be nice to take Emma. She really needs some attention.


Hope you can start a new TR soon. I may have to create a FB account so I can keep in touch with you.

[debedo]

So awesome to see all your plans coming together for V's trip! It always works out for the best and how exciting for her to take such a wonderful trip before her Post graduation life begins.
I would love to see your debt journey on Facebook !
Your Dad will appreciate a party for his birthday. Love the pic of you all at lunch. We have been to that restaurant as we have a spot on the "chain" I looked at the pic and thought HEY! It's a small world after all and now I have the song stuck in my head...ahhhh gotta love the Disney reference.
We all appear to be motivated hearing you pay off your debts. It certainly does for me!!

 

[kittylady1972]

Love reading your personal life updates and great idea to let both girls just decide what works for them and not push them out the door to college or whatever they choose to do. I feel the same way with a Junior in HS now who seems to have no thoughts of what he'll do next year when he graduates. Right now I'm working on getting him out job hunting so at least he stays busy this summer.

Glad you got a good deal on the airfare for V and hope you'll at least update somewhere about her adventures as I loved reading about A's adventures.

Great job on your debt snowball too..that's next on our to do list...eventually.

Hope your dad has a wonderful surprise party!

 

[DMGeurts]

Oh sad!! I've been tired lately so I haven't replied a lot but I love getting to read everyday. Will definitely have to chat on Facebook occasionally. I'll hate not knowing how things are going with the girls. You will definitely have to let us know when you start a PTR so we can come back together.

It's great to see you again! I will, for sure, let every one know when I start a new PTR - or I will try to anyways. Until then - I'll see ya on FB!

I love your sewing room! And the senior trip idea is so awesome, I thought about doing the same with my kids! Excited to read your trip report.

Thank you - I spend a lot of time there, so it must be a fun place to be!

It is a lot of fun doing the senior trips - although, it was very expensive! It might not have been so bad had my girls not graduated 1 year apart. So - with 2 Disney trips and 2 trips to Europe, it was a lot of saving to make it all happen - and a lot of work... I wouldn't trade it for the world - but man - it was crazy! LOL

I hope you can get cheap airfare for v's summer trip.
I can't believe how high air fare has been. We looked at a quick family trip during girls spring break but airfare was $500 a person. Then dh has a business trip to Houston over my birthday. I priced out airfare to join him, it was so high. We could do a family weekend getaway for a lot less. I'm just waiting on girls spring sport schedule to plan something.
Sydney want some to switch her basketball team. Going tonight for second round of tryouts for a new team. No clue how she can fit 2 practice plus 5 weekend tournaments in along with soccer.

We did end up getting airfare... It was under budget too - so that's a bonus!

Many of the flights that I had priced in Feb had gone up at least 40% since then... There were only a few left that were manageable. And I snagged one of them for V.

I hope you are able to do a family weekend get away soon!

Good luck to Sydney! And good luck to you for organizing her schedule - it sounds a bit frantic!

The picture of the bike in the tree made me laugh! So funny! I'm glad your Dad is doing ok, and like you, I would err on the side of caution when it comes to health! That's the most important thing.

Congratulations on paying off more debt! You are so awesome! I hope you don't stop writing because I need your encouragement and your example -- truly, I do.

V will have a wonderful trip. Such an exciting time for her.

I have truly loved following along with your PTRs and TRs and am sad to see this one end. Please don't sign off completely!

Hugs!!!!!

Yah - it's pretty funny... Small town life, I guess.

Thanks! I am struggling with our budget this morning - I am off somewhere, and I can't find it... Gonna let it settle over the weekend - at least the error is in my favor. LOL

I am excited for her - though I don't like the latest news out of London... That makes me

I am trying not to - I got a lot behind here this week and I am doing my best to catch up... I'll be around - just maybe not in my own thread. And, of course, I'll be on FB.

Hugs to you too!

Too sad to comment,
Just know i love you and your family!

Love you too Mo!!!

Aww...so sad to see you "go" for now. Looking forward to that day when you have another trip planned. Feel free to stalk along on mine...I just finished one "surprise" last minute trip with my one and only daughter about 2 weeks ago, and we have at least 2 more upcoming trips...maybe even 4 more coming up. We'll see how that goes.

So exciting to hear about you paying down your debt, something we also need to focus on but sometimes it's so tough. Just when we make some traction, it seems some other big expense hits though. I'm sure we aren't alone in those struggles.

Love reading along and hope to see you again here soon!

Thanks - me too - hopefully it won't be too long... Until then, I'll be around, just not in my own space.

Exciting!!!

Yes - we are definitely working on it... It's fun to see it go down! I know that feeling all too well - I guess we just need to keep trying.

Thanks!!! I've enjoyed our friendship very much and I hope to be back soon too!

We have been looking for months now for cheaper airfare for Marissa's return flight. Unfortunately, there are 2 weeks in August that are extreme travel weeks for Japan and we ended up paying over $1,200 for a one-way ticket home.

I am sad to see the trip report come to an end. Something I looked forward to reading to start my mornings.

I think the month of August is terrible everywhere... I know that August is the month that Europeans are allowed to travel and take vacations - I think that impacts travel prices everywhere. I hope you are able to find cheap airfare for her to come home soon!

Awwwh... I'll be back, no doubt about that... It just might be a while - but hopefully not too long.

No, don't go!!!

Guess I'll have to start checking in with you FB since you're the only one I know who cares about my eating and exercising woes!

Thanks so much for sharing all your beautiful memories here and your wonderful family. I have loved reading along and getting to know you all!!!

Awwwh!!! I'll still be around - and bonus, I might be able to catch up on all of the other TRs I've been neglecting for far too long!

I do have that private group on FB for exercise accountability - I've had that for a few years now... LMK if you want me to add you.

You are very welcome! I've enjoyed every moment of sharing and building friendships here on The Dis! I'll still be around - so hopefully you all won't miss me too much?

I hope you know you really turned on my waterworks D; not on your beautiful tribute to your amazing "baby"; but the end of your TR. I will miss visiting you each day via the boards. You made some incredible life memories; and V will have this trip in her heart always. Kudos to you for making this happen. Take a bow.

So glad your Dad is being watched over at his assisted living facility and he is doing okay.

Way to go on the budget! That means putting some aside for another trip Hope you can find cheaper airfare for V, sign up for all airfare alerts you can find. Some are more diligent than others. And continued no grains! I will follow on your healthy living.

I will have to rely on FB and email now! Love ya Dorine; always hugs, always prayers.

Awwwh - Carol... We'll still be connected elsewhere! I have such a cherished friend in you!

Yes - he is being watched... I think he is more annoyed by it than anything... He is still grumpy about me not letting him renew his drivers license... I think he completely forgot about the 2 car accidents he had in a row - one which could have severely injured my brother had he been just a few more inches forward... The next time he grumps about it - I'll have to remind him that it's for his own safety... And the safety of others.

Thank you Carol!!! Sending you giant hugs and prayers too!

I loved your TR and the pics of your "baby" It is so special that you got to do this with each of your girls. I have done one on one trips with my kids and they are so special and I hope that as they get older I will be able to do more of these types of things. Way to go on the healthy eating and no grains...that would be really hard.

I have to laugh about the bike in the tree - did you ever find out how it got there? (pardon me if I missed it somewhere in this TR lol)

Thanks! They are definitely memories that I wouldn't trade for anything! I am sure you will get to make these special memories too!

Thanks - it's going quite well... I think I was just putting too much on my plate (literally and figuratively)... Once I backed off, and instead of trying to do everything at once, just work on my "one at a time" method that I used a few years and was successful with - it became much easier to concentrate on what I needed to.

Not sure??? LOL It's still there though... I am guessing it's going to be a permanent fixure? LOL

You MUST start a PTR! We all enjoy reading your daily life updates....
I need to hear about Victoria's last few months in high school, graduation & her trip abroad! And of course Allison's next steps in life also! And everything else you keep us up on

Thank you for all the great threads you have written, they have brightened my day for years now

Still watching for updates, I just haven't been posting
Monica

Hey you! It's great to see you here!

I will start one soon... Maybe in a few weeks or so... I feel like I must have something to plan first. LOL I feel like I am my own soap opera? LOL

You are very welcome! Thanks for being such a great friend to me over the years!

No more updates - the TR is done... but I am still trying to wade through all of the replies.



*********************************************************************************************************

Phew! Another batch of replies done! I'll finish them all eventually. Until then - I guess I'll just keep adding my daily updates.

Not much to report here... It's been a little quiet.

I've been working on some business stuff over the last few days... That has been fun!

I went for a walk yesterday - on top of my heavy lifting - and boy was that wind brutal... Thankfully - my out n' back route, the wind was coming at me headed out, then once I turned around, it pushed me home... though my legs were numb when I got here - so I cranked my electric blanket up to 9 and dozed a bit to warm up. LOL

I've been messing with our budget since about 4am... I am off somewhere and I can't figure it out - it's driving me crazy! Thankfully the error is in our favor... So, I think I am going to let the dust settle over the weekend and see how it looks again on Monday... Otherwise - I'll have Josh look at it to see if he can see what I can't see. I don't really want to pay off our next debt until I am certain my numbers are accurate. ETA: I figured it out... I forgot to roll over what we didn't use from our previous pay period. Perfectly balanced now.

Today - I will work out here shortly, and then I have a few errands to run.

No big plans for the weekend - except the surprise party for my Dad... I am excited about that - even though I am bummed that hardly anyone is coming... I invited all of his family a few weeks ago -and then yesterday I put a notice up on FB to invite anyone else in the area (as my Mom's entire family lives nearby) - sadly - I think I should have put the notice up on FB long ago, as most people already have plans.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! Sending prayers and pixie dust out to all of you!

D~

 

[the2ndstar2theright]

I so loved reading your TR! Thanks for sharing

 

[missjackiemcg]

I do have that private group on FB for exercise accountability - I've had that for a few years now... LMK if you want me to add you.

Yes, please!!

 

[Ladyfish77]

No. I've loved all your TR's and feel like they are the best part of DIS! Perhaps you can start a pre-pre trip report! I know it's time consuming, so totally get it, but we'd love to have you here!

And just gonna throw it out there, my recent trips have all been since my boys graduated from HS! So there is disney life after HS! Keep that in mind. My oldest even asked for me to plan a trip because he'd missed our previous one (and he's a college graduate and in medical school now)!

Good luck with your debt payoff! You are getting closer. Then when you have extra $$ you just may have to plan another trip!!!

Thanks for sharing your life and you family with us. I've enjoyed getting to "know" you all!

 

[marabusybee]

I'd love to be a part of a FB group if you do one. I'm really working this year and next to pay off my debt and save for a car.

 

[disny_luvr]

Hi, D! I'm so sad to see your TR come to an end. Thanks for taking us along on your trips! I know I don't post much, but I do read all your updates. I love reading about your life updates, too. I'll definitely read your next PTR/TR so make sure you post about it here or something. I don't want to miss it.

If you do decide to start a FB group about your debt dumping journey, I'd love to be added. Our only debt is our house and my car but I could definitely do better with saving, especially when it comes to my boys' 529. I love to read about other people's journeys and I've learned quite a few tips, too.

Take care and I look forward to a new PTR soon!
