One of my recent goals was to increase my GAL time. I have been getting out, but most of that time coincides with her work hours, so I guess it doesn't seem like I'm out much.
Tonight I went out. W wasn't home when I left; best guess is that she was seeing OM after work.
She got home before I did. She asked where I went. I told her "out" and said nothing more, starting to walk away. (Taking advice I've gotten here, I know I owed her no explanation).
She asked again. My reply: "I just went out for a while."
Then, "Are you okay?" (sounding like something wasn't sitting right with her). I said, "Yes," and left the room.
Haven't gotten a rise out of her like that in a while. Normally when she sees me, she says nothing or mutters "Hi" so quietly I can barely hear her.
