One of the simple things I've changed is that I've let my hair get much longer. W always said she preferred it that way. I may be 49, but I've got a thick head of hair, so it don't look too bad.
W has taken notice and complemented me. I am in a conservative profession, so typically I kept my hair style shorter for business reasons.
Think I will let it go just past my shoulders. Kind of a rebellious thing, and given W has the same attitude (to the extreme!), she seems to kind of dig it. Like telling the everyone I do as a want and am not concerned what you think.
Small changes can have a big impact. Updated clothing, new music on when she comes over, our home is clean and cheerful, some new household items have been bought since she left. Got to throw her off her game a bit. Let her know our life goes on.
