Hi JS,

Hope you're doing ok today. Thanks for the advice - I know you've been busy. I agree - this is a bit of a test. I'm interested to see how boss' W is this w/e. These parties go late and involve a lot of drinking, so I'm arranging for the kids to be away. Otherwise, I'm trying to look at this as an opportunity to do something nice for my W - something she'll enjoy even if I don't. I feel fortunate that things have improved - I don't totally understand why but it's forward progress.
