Walking
Linnettired but good energy 3

Come back in a year
Maritrelieved energy 5
Iron and B12 both low. Treated. The difference in a fortnight was not subtle. Three years of results side by side. A trend rather than a moment, which is apparently…

Protein first

Right. Greek yoghurt, eggs, and the limits of both. I have reached the limits of both. Protein first, everything else after. It is not interesting advice and it is…

A new bin and a plan

Notes for the week. Two lines a day in a paper diary. Date, and one thing. That is the entire system and it has twice changed a clinical decision. New sharps bin, and…
Laces

Short one tonight. Swam. First time since school. Two lengths, badly, grinning. Up the stairs at work twice without stopping at the landing. I stood at the top for a…

Paired up. We text on Sunday nights, four or five lines each, and it has quietly become the most reliable thing in my week. Nobody has ever asked me how I was doing…
The limits of yoghurt

Greek yoghurt, eggs, and the limits of both. I have reached the limits of both. Was undereating without realising. The nurse asked a plain question about what I had…
Two flights of stairs

Late, and writing anyway. Full shift on my feet and my knees did not stop me. That has not happened in about four years. Carried both bags up in one go. Small thing.…
