1Opinion of the Court

MARVIN, Judge.

The defendant ex-wife appeals a 1981 judgment revoking $250 monthly permanent alimony awarded her in a 1977 divorce. CC Art. 160 authorizes revocation of permanent alimony, “if it becomes unnecessary.”

Defendant contends that the change of circumstances between 1977 and 1981 was not significant and substantial so as to warrant revocation, that the trial judge made arithmetical errors and failed to properly evaluate and compare the respective financial and physical conditions of the litigants. We view the testimony in the light most favorable to supporting the judgment and affirm.
