I had to start out small, and quit just before the muscle spasms came to town!

I have also started piano lessons as exercise therapy for my crippled hands/wrists. It is fun! She let me start in the purple books!! I feel pretty special! After 3 weeks of it I can actually "snap" my fingers on my left hand again. It's been 3 years since I could do that. AND I have been able to open a few bottles and jars myself this week. It is really increasing my strength. I can almost snap with my right hand. Progress!!

60 minutes of Piano practice.

Keep it up my friends! You are inspiring me!

Small!?!? roll When I started swimming laps I had to wait at the end of the pool to catch my breath every 25 yds, and even then could only swim a lap or two. blush

And good job on the piano, too! cheerleader
