Sitting down to this properly tonight. Waking at four again. Not anxious, just awake, lying there listening to the boiler. Slept through. Whole night, no waking. It…
A different shape

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.…

Laces
Bertiepleased energy 4
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. Swam. First time since school. Two…
A printout I cannot read

What was underneath
Gusthoughtful energy 1
Sitting down to this properly tonight. I did not know other people did not have this. That is the part I keep turning over. I assumed everybody was doing the same…
An unremarkable 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. I nearly did not write this week…
Day one
Moraywired energy 4

Flat, whole night

Nothing to report

Starters as a main
Winnieloved energy 3
Sitting down to this properly tonight. My mother cooks. That is how she says it. So I eat what I can, slowly, and I say thank you, and we manage. It is not a problem…
Two lengths, badly
Minagrateful energy 5
A quiet 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…

The bad fortnight
Posyflat energy 1turning point
This week: The nausea has a shape to it now. Thursday teatime it starts, Friday it peaks, Saturday afternoon it lifts. Once I could see the pattern it stopped feeling…
Where the pen lives
Tansyorganised energy 5
Right. Small logistics win: worked out where the pen actually lives in a fridge shared with four other people and a toddler's yoghurts. Anchored injection day to my…
Steady

Quiet
Carlflat energy 3
This week: An unremarkable week. Ate, walked, worked, slept adequately. This is what most of it looks like. Nothing to report. Writing it down anyway, on the theory…
