Six labelled boxes
Catoorganised energy 1
This week: Batch cooked on a good day for the bad days. Six labelled boxes in the freezer and a great deal of smugness. New sharps bin, and a plan for what happens to…
Only one way
Doraworried energy 4turning point
The hard part is that I had let myself believe the direction was only ever going to be one way. Lipids moved the wrong way. Took it badly, and wrote the most honest…
I nearly did not write
Dotfine energy 5
Well then. Nothing to report. Writing it down anyway, on the theory that a journal made only of eventful weeks would give a false impression of the whole thing. An…
Eight hours of difference
Duncanorganised energy 3turning point
Three things this week. Time difference of eight hours and a weekly dose. Moved it forward by two hours a day rather than all at once, on my GP's suggestion.…
Before nine
Gillypractical energy 5turning point
Right. Got something with protein in before nine this morning, which meant the rest of the day did not fall apart at four. Took her own advice for once. Protein…
Two flights of stairs
Marniepleased energy 3
A quiet week. Got down on the floor and back up again unaided. I have not been able to do that since 2021 and I did it twice more just to check. Slept flat. Whole…
I nearly did not write
Mofine energy 3
Steady. That is the whole entry. I nearly did not write this week because there was nothing in it. Then I thought about how much I have got out of other people's…
Somebody new
Nolanwarm energy 3
This week: Somebody new tonight, terrified, exactly where I was in the spring. I said the thing that had been said to me and watched it land. The facilitator stopped…
Circle tonight
Rafewarm energy 3
Circle tonight. Eight of us, an hour, and about eleven minutes of actual information. The rest was the point. Went for the practical answers and stayed for the…
Nothing to report
Vivfine energy 5
Quiet. Injection Tuesday, mild Wednesday, fine by Thursday, and then a normal weekend. An unremarkable week. Ate, walked, worked, slept adequately. This is what most…
Where the pen lives
Abelorganised energy 1turning point
Anchored injection day to my shift pattern rather than to the calendar, which solved a problem I had been feeling guilty about for four months. Cold chain over long…
Sunday lunch
Brunowarm energy 2
My mother cooks. That is how she says it. So I eat what I can, slowly, and I say thank you, and we manage. It is not a problem to be solved. Starters as a main…
Laces
Cloverpleased energy 1
Up the stairs at work twice without stopping at the landing. I stood at the top for a second like an idiot. Nobody saw. It counted. Slept flat. Whole night. Flat.…
Dreams
Coltired energy 2
Quickly, before bed. Waking at four again. Not anxious, just awake, lying there listening to the boiler. Slept through. Whole night, no waking. It has been so long…
Nothing to report
Gillyflat energy 2
Steady. That is the whole entry. An unremarkable week. Ate, walked, worked, slept adequately. This is what most of it looks like. No news. The dog is well, the…

Sunday lunch
Harriwarm energy 5
Recording this for the record. Sunday lunch at my grandmother's. Small plate, long afternoon, no drama, and she was happy. My mother cooks. That is how she says it.…
The limits of yoghurt
Pippapractical energy 2turning point
Got something with protein in before nine this morning, which meant the rest of the day did not fall apart at four. Batch cooking on good days for bad days. Protein…
Slept through
Tedfoggy energy 3
This week: Vivid dreams, every night, the sort you have to sit up and shake off. Two other people in circle have the same and none of us can find anything written…
An unremarkable week
Tobyflat energy 5
Ten minutes then I am asleep. An unremarkable week. Ate, walked, worked, slept adequately. This is what most of it looks like. Quiet. Injection Tuesday, mild…
Sunday lunch
Wilfawkward energy 2
This week: A wedding. Three courses I could not face, a table of people who noticed, and a very kind waiter who boxed it up without saying a word. Somebody asked what…

Two lines a day
Bodhiorganised energy 3
A gentle week, mostly. Batch cooked on a good day for the bad days. Six labelled boxes in the freezer and a great deal of smugness. Small logistics win: worked out…
Slept through
Bunnyrested energy 5
The sleep has changed shape rather than improved. Different, not better, and I cannot yet tell whether I mind. Vivid dreams, every night, the sort you have to sit up…
