Steady
Vivflat energy 2
Well then. No news. The dog is well, the weather has been foul, and I have taken my medication on the correct day for the eleventh week running. Quiet. Injection…
Nothing to report
Winniefine energy 4
A gentle week, mostly. 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…
Awake at four
Alekstired energy 3
Repeat study came back and the apnoea is much reduced. Ten years of that mask. Slept through. Whole night, no waking. It has been so long that I lay there in the…
I nearly did not write
Linnetflat energy 3
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 unremarkable…
She noticed first
Maeveheld energy 4
Well then. My buddy noticed something in my journal before I did and asked me a very gentle question about it. She had a bad week and I had a fine one, and next month…
A1c down
Minarelieved energy 3turning point
Late, and writing anyway. Everything stable. She said come back in a year. I have never had a come-back-in-a-year before. Stable. Her doctor said she could come back…
An hour on the floor
Devgrateful energy 1turning point
Recording this for the record. Swam. First time since school. Two lengths, badly, grinning. Ran 10k, having previously been unable to run for a bus. Tied my own laces…
A1c down
Lurelieved energy 5turning point
A1c down. I looked at the number for a long time and then rang my mother, which surprised us both. Fine. Bloods back. Unremarkable, she said, which is a word I had…
Circle tonight
Maritwarm energy 2
This week: 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…
Eight minutes and a chair
Nadiatired but good energy 4
Walked instead of the bus all week. Not a programme. Just walking. Came back after a bad fortnight without trying to make up the lost ground, which is the thing that…
Quiet
Oskarsteady energy 1
Notes for the week. 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.…
Circle tonight
Ossianwarm energy 3
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. Went for the practical answers and…
Iron and B12
Tinukerelieved energy 2turning point
Three years of results side by side. A trend rather than a moment, which is apparently the only thing worth looking at. A1c down. Everything stable. She said come…
A1c down
Aleksrelieved energy 1turning point
Late, and writing anyway. Iron and B12 both low. Treated. The difference in a fortnight was not subtle. Improved. Everything stable. She said come back in a year. I…
Into town and back
Dillygrateful energy 4
Slept flat. Whole night. Flat. Full shift on my feet and my knees did not stop me. That has not happened in about four years. Busy Saturday.
Stayed for the company
Dotwarm energy 3
Right. Went for the practical answers and stayed for the company, which I gather is what everybody does. Circle tonight. Eight of us, an hour, and about eleven…

Come back in a year
Maplepleased energy 1
Sitting down to this properly tonight. A1c down. I looked at the number for a long time and then rang my mother, which surprised us both. Bloods back. Unremarkable,…
The arithmetic
Obipinched energy 1turning point
Recording this for the record. Price went up mid-year and I had a very unglamorous evening with a calculator and a cup of tea. Price volatility and a difficult month.…
Iron and B12
Ottolinerelieved energy 2turning point
Iron and B12 both low. Treated. The difference in a fortnight was not subtle. Stable. A1c down. I looked at the number for a long time and then rang my mother, which…
Where the pen lives
Theaorganised energy 4
Small logistics win: worked out where the pen actually lives in a fridge shared with four other people and a toddler's yoghurts. Two lines a day in a paper diary.…
Awake at four
Gwenfoggy energy 4
Slept through. Whole night, no waking. It has been so long that I lay there in the morning trying to work out what was different. Waking at four again. Not anxious,…
Six labelled boxes
Hannahorganised energy 1
Batch cooked on a good day for the bad days. Six labelled boxes in the freezer and a great deal of smugness. Two lines a day in a paper diary. Date, and one thing.…
Somebody new
