  • A different shape

    Norah3 Feb 2025foggy energy 4

    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 about it. The…

  • I nearly did not write

    Ossian3 Feb 2025steady energy 1

    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. No news. The dog…

  • The list on the fridge

    Pam3 Feb 2025steady energy 2

    Spread it across the day instead of trying to do it all at teatime and everything got easier. Was undereating without realising. The nurse asked a plain question…

  • Starters as a main

    Rafe3 Feb 2025loved energy 3

    A brief account of the week. 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…

  • Across the day

    Rilla3 Feb 2025steady energy 2

    Spread it across the day instead of trying to do it all at teatime and everything got easier. I have found five things I can get down when nothing appeals and I have…

  • I nearly did not write

    Lucas2 Feb 2025flat energy 4

    Right. 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 boring weeks. An unremarkable…

  • No project

    Matt2 Feb 2025content energy 5

    Two years. My only news is that there is no news, and I have come back specifically to say so, because nobody wrote this part down for me. Reduced to a maintenance…

  • Back without making it up

    Aria2 Feb 2025tired but good energy 1

    Grip strength has gone off and I noticed it opening a jar before I noticed it anywhere else. Back to loading properly. Eight minutes and a chair. That is the whole…

  • Steady

    Birdie2 Feb 2025steady energy 1

    An unremarkable week. Ate, walked, worked, slept adequately. This is what most of it looks like. Quiet. Injection Tuesday, mild Wednesday, fine by Thursday, and then…

  • A new bin and a plan

    Brody2 Feb 2025organised energy 3

    New sharps bin, and a plan for what happens to it when I move in September. Two lines a day in a paper diary. Date, and one thing. That is the entire system and it…

  • Paired

    Bruno2 Feb 2025held energy 2

    Paired up. We text on Sunday nights, four or five lines each, and it has quietly become the most reliable thing in my week. My buddy noticed something in my journal…

  • Steady

    Clemmie2 Feb 2025flat energy 4

    A gentle week, mostly. 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…

  • Propped up on pillows

    Gilly2 Feb 2025sore energy 5

    Reflux again. I slept propped up on three pillows and woke at two anyway. I have an appointment on Thursday and I am going to actually mention it this time rather…

  • A different shape

  • Circle tonight

    Maple2 Feb 2025warm energy 4

    Sitting down to this properly tonight. Circle tonight. Eight of us, an hour, and about eleven minutes of actual information. The rest was the point. Somebody new…

  • Paired

    Marit2 Feb 2025held energy 1

    This week: Paired up. We text on Sunday nights, four or five lines each, and it has quietly become the most reliable thing in my week. She had a bad week and I had a…

  • The question I had been avoiding

    Ollie2 Feb 2025frustrated energy 4

    Sitting down to this properly tonight. Took the diary in. She read it properly, which I had not expected, and changed the plan because of it. Nine minutes. I took…

  • Sunday lunch

    Ottoline2 Feb 2025awkward energy 5

    A brief account of the week. Somebody asked what my secret was and I froze completely. Still working out what I want to say to that. A wedding. Three courses I could…

  • She read the diary

    Ruthie2 Feb 2025brisk energy 5

    A brief account of the week. Nine minutes. I took three written questions and got three answers, which is the best return I have ever had from an appointment. Left…
