I know I also took something a bit more, but the fact it was closer to S, his school, W (That was not planned) ... it all worked out as my commute time has been drastically cut allowing me time to cook again at home ... so the money I am saving with food and gas ... plus more time with S ended up being totally worth it.
Maybe once your W is alone, you are removed and not the focus of all her unhappiness she can begin to do some work. I know if I was around all the time my W would have never looked once in the mirror.
