Back without making it up
Gigitired but good energy 4
Evening. Eight minutes and a chair. That is the whole programme. Tuesday and Friday. I have done it for eleven weeks. Kept the two sessions that matter and dropped…
Nothing to report
Gillyflat energy 2
Right. 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…
A plain question
Hannahsteady energy 5
A quiet week. Spread it across the day instead of trying to do it all at teatime and everything got easier. Got something with protein in before nine this morning,…
Slept through
Héloïsefoggy energy 5
Waking at four again. Not anxious, just awake, lying there listening to the boiler. Repeat study came back and the apnoea is much reduced. Ten years of that mask.…
My mother cooks
Keeleywarm energy 5
Short one tonight. Starters as a main course, permanently. No explanation offered, none requested. Somebody asked what my secret was and I froze completely. Still…
She stopped the room
Nedwarm energy 4
Went for the practical answers and stayed for the company, which I gather is what everybody does. Somebody new tonight, terrified, exactly where I was in the spring.…
Sunday lunch
Nolanwarm energy 2
This week: Starters as a main course, permanently. No explanation offered, none requested. Somebody asked what my secret was and I froze completely. Still working out…
Fewer, heavier
Ollietired but good energy 4
A gentle week, mostly. Kept the two sessions that matter and dropped the two that were vanity. Fewer, heavier, done. Walked instead of the bus all week. Not a…
Walking
Rintired but good energy 5
Quickly, before bed. Kept the two sessions that matter and dropped the two that were vanity. Fewer, heavier, done. Walked instead of the bus all week. Not a…
An hour on the floor
Rafegrateful energy 2
Full shift on my feet and my knees did not stop me. That has not happened in about four years. Tied my own laces standing up. I am aware of how that sounds and I do…
A different shape
Romytired energy 3
The sleep has changed shape rather than improved. Different, not better, and I cannot yet tell whether I mind. Waking at four again. Not anxious, just awake, lying…
Two lengths, badly
Ruthiepleased energy 3
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. Carried both bags up in one go.…
Anchored to the shifts
Saraorganised energy 1
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…
Three cool bags and a thermometer
Annaorganised energy 5
A brief account of the week. Small logistics win: worked out where the pen actually lives in a fridge shared with four other people and a toddler's yoghurts. Batch…
I nearly did not write
Noahfine energy 5
Quiet. Injection Tuesday, mild Wednesday, fine by Thursday, and then a normal weekend. I nearly did not write this week because there was nothing in it. Then I…

A brief account of the week. Repeat study came back and the apnoea is much reduced. Ten years of that mask. The sleep has changed shape rather than improved.…
The question I had been avoiding
Annikabrisk energy 2
A quiet 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 with a printout I…
Laces
Ashpleased energy 1
Well then. Carried both bags up in one go. Small thing. Wrote it down. Up the stairs at work twice without stopping at the landing. I stood at the top for a second…
The limits of yoghurt
Ashwinsteady energy 1
Three things this week. Greek yoghurt, eggs, and the limits of both. I have reached the limits of both. Spread it across the day instead of trying to do it all at…
Nothing to report
Bertiesteady energy 3
A brief account of the week. Quiet. Injection Tuesday, mild Wednesday, fine by Thursday, and then a normal weekend. No news. The dog is well, the weather has been…
Steady
Bridieflat energy 3
This week: 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.…
A printout I cannot read
Brunoheard energy 2
She reduced one of my other medications. I asked her twice whether that was really allowed. Nine minutes. I took three written questions and got three answers, which…
A printout I cannot read
Callafrustrated energy 2
Late, and writing anyway. A locum who had clearly read nothing. I was polite, I got what I needed, and I have booked with my own GP for next month. Left with a…
Nothing to report
Dotsteady energy 1
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. Steady. That is the…
