Just want to restate my appreciation for the very helpful posts today from everyone...
W came home early from work unexpectedly (at least to me -- she didn't tell me she was coming home early) and when she walked into the office I was able to act surprised, but not grumpy... Somewhat chipper, but not overly so and somewhat detached... If that makes any sense -- like I was in a good mood but not overly excited and able to be like "Oh, you're home early..." without making a big deal out of it. And then I just kept on working and doing what I was doing while she went up to the bedroom to work from home for the rest of the day.
On a related note, when she came in the house and then a moment later into the office, the music I was playing loudly in the office was one of Katy Perry's new songs called "Ghost" which is a rather upbeat after-the-breakup song about moving on...
And now I'm in a much better mood than I was earlier today... I feel really strong right now.
