On de novo review, we modify the decree of dissolution in two particulars: (1) Wife is awarded permanent spousal support in the amount of $1,500 per month, instead of $1,200 per month; (2) the spousal support award shall not be automatically reduced to $500 per month after eight years, as presently provided. The decree is affirmed in all other particulars.

Affirmed as modified. Costs to appellant on the appeal and cross-respondent on the cross-appeal.
