I'll admit it. Yesterday I was crabby. REALLY Crabby. There was no trigger that I could tell other than pain. Cramps and backache and headache. I was PMSing big time and I don't think I've been that crabby in a long time. I was hot and tired and achey and I just wanted to go to sleep but I couldn't. The heating pad was too hot, my fan was not cold enough and the dog decided that would be a good time to find his new squeeker toy. My husband had retreated to the basement around the time I told him not to hug me and asked me what my problem was.
He had a point. I didn't really have a problem except for the feeling of ALL of my nerve endings in every part of my body firing at once. But how do you explain that to someone who has never felt that? And then I feel guilty since my pain is better shouldn't I be grateful? Its not as bad as it was. And I felt bad for being so witchy to my husband. He was a really good guy yesterday and I gave him credit in the "for future use" memory bank. Next time he's crabby I'll try to be as understanding.
When he came to bed he did rub my shoulders and told me I looked restless and even offered to turn the air conditioning up higher since he could feel how hot I was. I thanked him apologized and then finally fell asleep.
