W: We don't talk much in the morning and I'm hoping we can connect more in the afternoon.
Me: That might work for you.
W: I'm also going to be alone at P's house starting christmas day so I'm hoping maybe they will spend some more time with me there, maybe stay overnight.
Me: That sounds like it might work out.

W: I was only asking how _you_ were feeling.
Me: I'm fine, business is moving along as planned and that's the best I can hope for. There is no reason for you to be concerned.
W: Well sometimes I do.
Me: ok, well I need to go now, bye.
