O.K., so far so good on the positive outlook, however yesterday I was a bit on the restless side so I decided I needed to get into my pool and work some of it off. Exercise can be beneficial to those of us with fibromyalgia if we are careful to go very slowly.
So, I have this pool "noodle" that I use when I am trying to exercise my legs as I am able to concentrate solely on working the muscles I want and not be concerned with over doing it on my arms. With the fibromyalgia I have found it pays to be careful when swimming as you have no idea how much you are using your muscles until they hurt days later.
Anyway, it was great to get out a bit and use muscles that haven't been used much lately and try to use up some of this restless energy I have. I know when I get this way my mind can't seem to focus on anything so nothing really gets accomplished that day. I have had the same mosaic sitting in front of me for about 3 days now because I can't make up my mind what I want to do for the background.
On a good note, I am walking better each day and am hopeful to be back to my neighborhood walks very soon.

Sorry about last comment to many spelling mistakes :(
It is a pain really that we have no clue that we have over done it until it is too late.
Good for you for swimming :) T.
