Speaking as a wife (of 1968FormulaS340), I will assure you, yes, we get over stuff. However, your relationship with your wife is like a bank account. I'm not sure what your current balance is with your "withdrawals" over time, but it is disrespectful to your wife and the foundation of your marriage if you decide unilaterally to spend that amount of money without offering your wife the respect that comes from being included in the decision making process.
Women really don't forget. If you feel you can afford to make such a withdrawal from the foundation balance of your marriage, then go for it.
Personally, as a wife, I would instantly lose respect for you as my husband and that "shine" would dull quite a bit from your once glimmering halo.
You must make your choice and live with the circumstances/consequences.
Woot! Get'R Done!
