Confused and Lost

[KristinG]

Good morning all! Yesterday was really difficult, but day one of NC down and successful. She did text about a work thing - news flash I manage several veterinary practices and she works part time in one. I responded politely and short. She came by my main office and dropped off some paperwork. We didn't speak, she handed it to me and I just said thank you. I went to a have dinner with one of our married couple friends and they asked how everything was going with us "working on our M". I told them I didn't want to talk about it and just wanted to enjoy their company. They never brought it back up. Homemade tomato basil soup and grilled cheese for the WIN! This morning I have had waves of anxiety, but in general I feel optimistic about the day and am in a good mood. I know there will still be many ups and downs, but I am trying to look forward to each day getting a little easier to detach.

PS. I took off my wedding ring yesterday and it's been a really weird feeling - is this ok and normal? She hasn't worn hers in months, and I just felt like I needed to physically separate that commitment from my body.
