Sunday night, four lines
Larkheld energy 1
My buddy noticed something in my journal before I did and asked me a very gentle question about it. Paired up. We text on Sunday nights, four or five lines each, and…
Steady
Marniefine 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. Quiet. Injection…
She read the diary
Peggyheard energy 3
Left with a printout I could not read and no idea what to be worried about. Taking it to bloodwork-buddies on Thursday. A locum who had clearly read nothing. I was…
What is your secret
Sadieloved energy 4
Quickly, before bed. Sunday lunch at my grandmother's. Small plate, long afternoon, no drama, and she was happy. Somebody asked what my secret was and I froze…
How are you doing on a Wednesday
Solomonheld energy 1
Week in order: Nobody has ever asked me how I was doing on a Wednesday before. My buddy noticed something in my journal before I did and asked me a very gentle…
Nothing to report
Stefanfine energy 2
Recording this for the record. 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…
A printout I cannot read
Tobyfrustrated energy 1
Quickly, before bed. 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. Nine minutes. I took…
A plain question
Annasteady energy 1
A brief account of the week. Spread it across the day instead of trying to do it all at teatime and everything got easier. Greek yoghurt, eggs, and the limits of…
Nine minutes
Lenafrustrated energy 2
Notes for the week. 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. Asked the question I had…
No news
Ambrosesteady energy 2
A brief account of the week. Steady. That is the whole entry. An unremarkable week. Ate, walked, worked, slept adequately. This is what most of it looks like. No…
Across the day
Bosteady energy 2
Late, and writing anyway. Got something with protein in before nine this morning, which meant the rest of the day did not fall apart at four. Spread it across the day…
Nothing to report
Brunofine energy 3
An unremarkable week. Ate, walked, worked, slept adequately. This is what most of it looks like. No news. The dog is well, the weather has been foul, and I have taken…

Eight minutes and a chair
Dottired but good energy 4
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 programme. Just walking. Eight…
Anchored to the shifts
Gigiorganised energy 2
Evening. Tested three cool bags against a thermometer this weekend because I am that person. Results written up for the travel circle. Anchored injection day to my…
A plain question
Gillysteady energy 4
Right. Spread it across the day instead of trying to do it all at teatime and everything got easier. Greek yoghurt, eggs, and the limits of both. I have reached the…
A new bin and a plan
Hattieorganised energy 3
Late, and writing anyway. Anchored injection day to my shift pattern rather than to the calendar, which solved a problem I had been feeling guilty about for four…
Pausing
Izzyclear-eyed energy 3turning point
Did the arithmetic out loud, on the page, no rounding. It is a lot. Seeing it written down was steadying rather than frightening, which I had not expected. Paused for…
Sunday night, four lines
Maeveheld energy 1
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 it will be…
Off the floor
Nangrateful energy 3
This week: Walked into town and back, which I stopped doing years ago without ever deciding to stop. Tied my own laces standing up. I am aware of how that sounds and…
Dreams
Pippafoggy energy 4
Sitting down to this properly tonight. Slept through. Whole night, no waking. It has been so long that I lay there in the morning trying to work out what was…
Steady
Ravisteady energy 3
Notes for the week. 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. Steady. That…
She read the diary
Wilfbrisk energy 4turning point
This week: She reduced one of my other medications. I asked her twice whether that was really allowed. Blood pressure medication reduced. Left with a printout I could…
