I'm doing better today, didn't beat up anyone last night. I know it was my body just reacting to the the steroids the doctor put me on this week for joint inflammation.
I'm with you Californiapoppy, I'm not that found of affection either except from my 3 year old grandson and I imagine if he was too affectionate it would bother me. I get most of the affection I need from my dog, and she's a Pekingnese and they are not a very affectionate breed but she lets me cuddle with her with 20-30 minutes a day usually and that is sufficient.
