Sounds like a productive day—reading up on detachment, meditations, talking about the kids grades and initiating your own action plan without seeking her approval, Xmas lunch plans, keeping the work texts brief.

Your two statements are at odds. The first approves her change, implying you’re in control. The second states she’s in control. I don’t know what you two agreed two on this, where the truth lies especially when debt is involved.
