Thanks for the good wishes. Unfortunately, it wasn't that great. My wife developed double pneumonia and I spent most of it nursing her. Hopefully, she's through the woods, now.
I want to disagree with your disagreement, here.
The IRS does not make the rules. Congress makes the rules. The IRS is charged with collecting tax and they frequently skew their interpretations of Congress' laws and publish them in their publications to collect more tax from you. That's why they are not the best source. It is best to find another independent source for tax guidance.
