Standing in the kitchen
Stefanwired energy 2
Notes for the week. Nothing has happened yet, which nobody had warned me about. I think I expected to feel something immediately, and instead I made a cup of tea and…
Nothing to report
Tobyflat energy 4
Quiet. Injection Tuesday, mild Wednesday, fine by Thursday, and then a normal weekend. No news. The dog is well, the weather has been foul, and I have taken my…
No news
Tullasteady energy 4
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…
Anchored to the shifts
Vivorganised energy 1
Well then. Batch cooked on a good day for the bad days. Six labelled boxes in the freezer and a great deal of smugness. Anchored injection day to my shift pattern…
Steady
Poppysteady energy 2
Quickly, before bed. 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…
Circle tonight
Annikawarm energy 4turning point
Late, and writing anyway. Circle tonight. Eight of us, an hour, and about eleven minutes of actual information. The rest was the point. The plateau circle is the…
The list on the fridge
Bridiesteady energy 5
Protein first, everything else after. It is not interesting advice and it is the only advice that has changed anything. Greek yoghurt, eggs, and the limits of both. I…
Walking
Callatired but good energy 5
Short one tonight. Came back after a bad fortnight without trying to make up the lost ground, which is the thing that used to end it for me every time. Two sessions…
The list on the fridge
Hollysteady energy 2
A quiet week. I have found five things I can get down when nothing appeals and I have written them on the fridge. That list is the most useful thing I own. Got…
A rough few days
Linnetsore energy 4turning point
A gentle week, mostly. Bad week and I am writing it down anyway, because a journal that only contains the good weeks would be a lie and no use to anybody reading it…
A locum
Wilfheard energy 2
This week: 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…
Beginning, badly
Wystanhopeful energy 1
The pharmacist talked me through it very fast and I nodded at all of it and retained about a third. I have written down the bits I remember and I will ask again at…
Awake at four
Noahtired energy 5turning point
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. Could not tell what was the…
An unremarkable week
Annikasteady energy 3
A quiet week. Steady. That is the whole entry. Quiet. Injection Tuesday, mild Wednesday, fine by Thursday, and then a normal weekend. Enough for now.
A new bin and a plan
Cassorganised energy 1
Recording this for the record. New sharps bin, and a plan for what happens to it when I move in September. Batch cooked on a good day for the bad days. Six labelled…
Slept through
Florrietired energy 2
Evening. 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. The sleep has changed shape…
What is your secret
Heddawarm energy 1
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. So I eat what I can, slowly, and…
Steady
Keeleyfine energy 3
A quiet week. Steady. That is the whole entry. No news. The dog is well, the weather has been foul, and I have taken my medication on the correct day for the eleventh…
Before nine
Nolansteady energy 5
Was undereating without realising. The nurse asked a plain question about what I had actually eaten in the last two days and I heard my own answer. Protein first,…
Walking
Nualatired but good energy 3
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 the two…
I nearly did not write
Odilesteady energy 5
Quiet. Injection Tuesday, mild Wednesday, fine by Thursday, and then a normal weekend. Steady. That is the whole entry. Bonne soirée.
Not writing about this would be dishonest
Rinflat energy 4turning point
Ten minutes then I am asleep. The burping. Nobody mentions the burping. It is not in any leaflet and it is genuinely one of the odder experiences of my adult life.…
She noticed first
Sadieheld energy 5
She had a bad week and I had a fine one, and next month it will be the other way round. That is the whole mechanism. Paired up. We text on Sunday nights, four or five…
Not only hair
Winniehopeful energy 3
Regrowth at the front. Short soft bits standing up at the parting like a toddler's. I have never been so pleased about anything so unattractive. GP checked ferritin…
