Newcomer, want to keep my hope alive!

So, I have been trying to do the things that I want and decide on.

Yesterday, we are eating lunch, and my D8 asked my W if they could go to the beach, and my W responded to her "I had thought your dad could take you to the beach, so I can go work out and do other things"

I was not happy with that, and a couple hours later I decided I did not need to hold my emotion that I was unhappy with that in, and told her I did not appreciate her deciding what my D8 and I would be doing, that I will decide that. My W was upset and tried to defend herself. I didn't care what her response was, that was one of the few times I have said something to her about the way I feel when things like that happen.

Today, I informed my W that I had decided that I would be coming back to sleep in our bed, and that she could find somewhere else to sleep if that bothered her. Her reply was 'I don't care.'

Regardless of what happens, I feel better about expressing myself and making some of the decisions for me, and not worrying about what her reaction will be.
