Butter, I understand what you mean. I try not to complain because it gets old. I know the important people in my life get
most of how I feel. So if they can't help me, why complain? I just grin and bear it.
If I get quiet my DH stays far away. He has learned I may bite. Quiet means leave me alone for now, I don't want to talk.
Fatigue is my biggest pain in the hind end. Sometimes I get invited to a party or functions and I know I just won't make it, so I have to decline.
I just say it's not a good day, or I may say I have an appointment that day at the doctors, if they are not living close to me. It's easier that way.
