And I was frankly hoping and watching and measuring the benchmarks. But having failed once — at the front of October– the first of December became a critical juncture of other– It was going to meet the expectations the second time around. I knew we didn’t have a third time around. So, it was– that was a pretty– a pretty scary date. And– and watching a lotta people come in and be able to be enrolled in December was very gratifying.
