Well that started well and ended poorly. I'm both happy and sorry to hear that. It's easy to get sucked back into the good times but in truth, your wife is very touchy right now. My wife and I had a golden period for two weeks where everything was easy and felt awesome, the next week or so the "honeymoon" period was over and then my wife felt like we were sweeping things under the carpet and hasn't been the same in the past month.

On the bright side, things should at least be civil and maybe slightly better if you stick to the plan. How to get back to the good parts is still beyond me but keep the DBing up for yourself and keep an eye out for the small positives from your wife.
