*Not much as I overdid it at the gum yesterday.

*Got out of bed and went to work.

*Went shopping (with hubby)- stressful but not too long!

*Fart! Other than that, change the TV channel?

*Gum? Of course I meant gym. Just gentle walks today. Too sore for housework which just means more to do tomorrow.

*went out for coffee with my mum

*I went to Aldi with my husband for 20 minutes.

*Walked to the mailbox by the house.

*Walking to work.

*Went to my counselling session, came back and was tired for the rest of the day.

* Took my 87 year old aunt to the store then came home and crashed.

*Went to a 3 hour training course for my voluntary work - horrible uncomfortable chairs and two flights of stairs, sore now!

*Short stroll, sunny day.

*Went food shopping with my mum, neither exciting nor pain free! Tired now

*I did homework all morning, then drove to course where we had 3 weeks lessons in one. Brain dead, much.

*I had to go to the store, wore me out.

*Grocery store, am beat now

*Sleep all the way home in the car, and then get warm cos when we got home the heating was off and it was so cold!

*Went to garage sale

*I am having an "up curve" at the moment so was able to take the little 5 year old autistic boy that I look after (nanny) on the bus to Derby to the big shopping centre to go watch "How to train your dragon".
Was such a lovely day! Tomorrow we'll stay home and do fun things that don't require a lot of energy.

*Drink a glass of wine

*Wish I could be energetic today:(, BUT went out yesterday with my husband and my daughter to the cinema then pizza hut, so to suffer today is well worth it.

*painted a door my tablets are wonderful.

*I went to the library up two big flights of stairs to get a computer, sat down and realised id left my usb at home.
Walked downstairs thinking about how heavy the the bag of folders id taken with me was and realised id left my card. Which I needed to get out of the library) up by the computers so had to go up the stairs again to get it and down and home to get my usb and back to the library (with the heavy folders) where I did lots of work and almost fell asleep because of all night in the library last night. Goodnight everyone happy sleep time.

*Get out of bed?

*I read my book "WICKED" by Gregory Maguire! It actually takes a lot of effort/energy for me. My hands, wrists, arms and shoulders are painful and stiff from severe osteoarthritis, "my" Fibromyalgia, and of course CFS/ME!
I usually read paperbacks and still to wear the splints on both wrists. I even tear out all ads (ads on both sides of page) to lessen the weight of the issue. Whatever works!

*go out with a friend & WATCH our five year olds play.

*Driving, went to work, wrote checks out to the IRS. On the couch now exhausted.

*Did the grocery shopping.

*Attending my *work focused review* I cant walk far,sit for long, stand, write or cook but I can still look for work. utter Joke

*Go to lunch with my friend and walked my dog for 15 minutes

*wax the back of kerry's legs!

*I've had an amazing day today, I feel great Got up around 10ish, went out around half 1, went for a meal and to the cinema, although I was very twitchy throughout the film and quite uncomfortable and kept fidgeting.
Went for a little drive then went bowling. Which proper knackered me and my knee's are killing. Just got in and so ready for my warm bed!

*Eat.

*cooked tea

*Got up at 6:30 went to work, came home and worked a bit in the garden. Loving LDN! When I get my endurance and strength back, I'll be like normal.

*I made bread today and in the middle of making bread I told some one they were a moron. A good day I think.

*Turn my computer on

*do the laundry

*Water aerobics class. It's super low impact and my classmates are really understanding!

*This isn't about tonight's question, but I'm just wondering if anyone else finds all this depressing. I'm 23 years old, and was diagnosed just over a year ago. And looking at all these comments on the questions, just depresses me. Definitely not a good feeling seeing what I have to look forward to.

*make a salad

*Play with my grand kids!

*I cut the grass in the backyard (hubby did front yard) made dinner, swept off the porch, smoked a cig now I truly am in a lot of pain. Feel like dying, need to learn how to pace myself, don't want to seem completely worthless to my hubby, so I pushed it today even through all the pain.

*Double doc appt. for me and the DH, then WalMart. Wiped out now, but looking forward to planting our vegetable garden. First one we've had in years-I'm jazzed about it!

*I vacuumed and washed my car and now I hurt bad!

*I am a little older than you- and believe me, I never saw myself slowing down this much, this soon. My 'activity' of the day was work, after 9 hours of work, I came home and passed out. At least Fibro is not fatal. Annoying maybe, disruptive to our daily lives, definitely, but you have to count your blessings when they appear.

*Worked out - decreases the pain.

*I actually went shopping for a couple hours. Unfortunately what really took it out of me was my anger when I realized that I just got screwed over on a major investment.

*Get out of bed,drink coffee & stare.I'm foggy today.

*take care of my vacation, neighbour's labouring rabbit and her friends, take care of my 3 dogs, my 2 kids, do laundry and go to the store, and do the afternoon work shift - now my leg has a charley horse and nerve pain - go figure

*energetic, I think I forgot what that was in general about 31/2 years ago BUT today I got all the laundry caught up!

*Getting out of bed after doing 1 hour yard work yesterday.

*Took my children to tutoring and then mentored. I feel like a truck ran me down.

*Went for a walk in Salt Lake City, worked the flight back to Denver, moved my car, went to Walmart and then back through security in time to work my trip to Portland. Good night dear ones. Time to rest.

*have lunch with my daughter

*I took my sister to the children's museum. I had to spend most of it watching her play. Actually, I think I was more active when we got home and I chased her around the living room once. Then I collapsed in a chair.

*The most energetic thing that I've managed so far is to do some washing.

*Went for a long walk with a friend instead of my usual exercise. It really tired me out and made my feet and legs ache. I also did too much of everything else today and cannot believe I am still up.

*you've just made my day hun, getting up and showering has wiped me today and I was feeling sorry for myself but Misty has put a fabulous smile on my face. gentle hugs everyone

*walk around the garden

*Chat on the phone!

*Got out of bed for work.

*Pack my things after a 2 1/2 month visit to Florida. Now I have to face the plane ride.

*Get dressed.

*get dressed and eat (a little)

*Don't get too scared by what you read, it doesn't mean you definitely WILL be as bad as you've read here, and most of my problems only started after giving birth and reaching 40!
Even though mine is hereditary! I don't have extremely severe pain like some do either, more zero energy. Plus you will come to understand in time what others without fibro call moaning.
We fibromites call venting, letting out our frustrations to like minded people, who understand and do not judge. Because when it's out there it's no longer clogging up your head and causing stress! We Fibromites don't moan, we vent!

*Went to work for 11.5 hours
