So this month has gone flying by, with helping the niece some more, resting and resting and resting. Having to be honest with myself, and step off a couple of swaps because there is not the energy for me to do them right now. Having to go through the challenges that I tend to with going through a major flare up of the fibromyalgia. Giving myself permission to have a meltdown or two. Because I have a few, I always feel sad and bluesy. Part of the no energy, pain levels up to a high degree, break through pain meds not doing a lot for it. So back to resting, streching, resting, do a little here and there. Giving myself permission to have naps and down time. When doing a bit better with those basics, getting out a little bit of embrodiery. Doing any activity in small amounts so that I am not overdoing it. So thus is my life at present, it isn't always exactly like this, but a lot of times it is.
So I have found a method that I want to try out that is suppose to help out with Fibromyalgia and many other ailments, as well as stress, muscle tension. It is the Miracle Ball Method, I have spent the last day reading the little book off and on. It is rather simple, breathing techniques and learning to relax your muscles using two balls. So will be experimenting with this one. If it dissipates some of the pain in any way, it will be worth its weight in gold. They had them at Costco for all of 11 buckaroos, which is worth trying. My dd say it and picked up a set, started reading and said, Mom, you have to at least try this. I was just hoping they still had some when I got the money this weekend. They did, I was thankful. I have to finish reading it all, but when I am done I will be doing this. Hey if it helps improve my health in anyway I have won. Lengthening ones muscles, help them relax. Something your muscles do not do with fibro, and a lot of other challenges we have in life.
So girls who are waiting for my quilt pictures, I am still on the hunt for my cord that hooks into my computer so I can download, and then take the quilt pictures. Some day over the rainbow, skies are blue.......grin.
So it is a Saturday night and my hubby and I are going to pass the time watching a movie, eating pretzels and having a good laugh. Good laughs always make life better!!!!!
So go and enjoy a laugh for yourself, it makes you smile which is exercising all in itself...teehheehheeehhee
