    Dora22 Oct 2024held energy 2

    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…

  • Two lengths, badly

    Fen22 Oct 2024pleased energy 5

    This week: Carried both bags up in one go. Small thing. Wrote it down. Tied my own laces standing up. I am aware of how that sounds and I do not care. Flat again. Good.

  • I have started

    Harri22 Oct 2024hopeful energy 1turning point

    Recording this for the record. I told one person. Not my mother, not work. One person, and only because she asked me a direct question at the right moment. Started in…

  • Propped up on pillows

    Lu22 Oct 2024rough energy 3turning point

    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…

  • Starters as a main

    Nettie22 Oct 2024loved energy 2

    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 not face, a table of people…

  • I have started

    Rilla22 Oct 2024nervous energy 4turning point

    Quick one. So. First one done. I had been carrying the box around the house for four days like it was something I had borrowed and needed to give back, and in the end…

  • The first one

    Tilda22 Oct 2024wired energy 3turning point

    Three things this week. 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…

  • At the table

    Toby22 Oct 2024prickly energy 4

    Ten minutes then I am asleep. Hid the box for two months. Not sure who from, exactly, in a house this size. My son asked why I was not eating my dinner. I gave him a…

  • Day one

    A brief account of the week. So. First one done. I had been carrying the box around the house for four days like it was something I had borrowed and needed to give…

  • Before nine

    Mina21 Oct 2024steady energy 3

    Short one tonight. 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.…

  • She noticed first

    Rowan21 Oct 2024held energy 3

    This week: 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. My buddy noticed something in my…

  • Eight minutes and a chair

    Gwenda21 Oct 2024tired but good energy 2

    This week: 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…

  • A wedding

    Harri21 Oct 2024warm energy 2

    Notes for the week. 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…

  • Steady

    Ike21 Oct 2024flat energy 2

    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…

  • Steady

    Kai21 Oct 2024fine energy 2

    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 of other people's…

  • No news

    Keeley21 Oct 2024fine energy 2

    A quiet week. An unremarkable week. Ate, walked, worked, slept adequately. This is what most of it looks like. Steady. That is the whole entry. Mum needs settling.

  • I nearly did not write

    Lark21 Oct 2024steady energy 1

    A gentle week, mostly. 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.…

  • Two lengths, badly

    Mark21 Oct 2024pleased energy 4

    Full shift on my feet and my knees did not stop me. That has not happened in about four years. Got down on the floor and back up again unaided. I have not been able…

  • A different shape

    Moray21 Oct 2024tired energy 3

    Well then. The sleep has changed shape rather than improved. Different, not better, and I cannot yet tell whether I mind. Repeat study came back and the apnoea is…

    Posy21 Oct 2024held energy 2

    This week: 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,…
