  • No news

    Romy2 Nov 2025fine energy 5

    Late, and writing anyway. 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…

  • I nearly did not write

    Soraya2 Nov 2025fine energy 5

    A quiet week. 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. No…

  • The question I had been avoiding

    Stellan2 Nov 2025frustrated energy 1

    Nine minutes. I took three written questions and got three answers, which is the best return I have ever had from an appointment. She reduced one of my other…

  • Nine minutes

    Matt1 Nov 2025heard energy 4

    Left with a printout I could not read and no idea what to be worried about. Taking it to bloodwork-buddies on Thursday. Nine minutes. I took three written questions…

  • A1c down

    Abel1 Nov 2025relieved energy 1

    A brief account of the week. Three years of results side by side. A trend rather than a moment, which is apparently the only thing worth looking at. Bloods back.…

  • Where the pen lives

    Ammi1 Nov 2025organised energy 3

    Small logistics win: worked out where the pen actually lives in a fridge shared with four other people and a toddler's yoghurts. Batch cooked on a good day for the…

  • Steady

    Calla1 Nov 2025steady energy 5

    Short one tonight. 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…

  • She reduced it

    Cass1 Nov 2025brisk energy 3

    Notes for the week. Nine minutes. I took three written questions and got three answers, which is the best return I have ever had from an appointment. Asked the…

  • The list on the fridge

    Izzy1 Nov 2025steady energy 1

    Got something with protein in before nine this morning, which meant the rest of the day did not fall apart at four. Was undereating without realising. The nurse asked…

  • Quiet

    Lil1 Nov 2025fine energy 5

    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…

  • Dreams

    Nettie1 Nov 2025foggy energy 2

    This week: Vivid dreams, every night, the sort you have to sit up and shake off. Two other people in circle have the same and none of us can find anything written…

  • Across the day

    Petua1 Nov 2025steady energy 4

    A quiet week. 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 instead of…

  • Three cool bags and a thermometer

    Pippa1 Nov 2025organised energy 4

    A gentle week, mostly. Small logistics win: worked out where the pen actually lives in a fridge shared with four other people and a toddler's yoghurts. New sharps…

  • She noticed first

    Zeb1 Nov 2025held 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. My buddy noticed something in my journal before I…

  • Off the floor

    Juno31 Oct 2025grateful energy 1

    Full shift on my feet and my knees did not stop me. That has not happened in about four years. Walked into town and back, which I stopped doing years ago without ever…

  • Sunday lunch

    Odile31 Oct 2025warm energy 1

    A brief account of the week. Somebody asked what my secret was and I froze completely. Still working out what I want to say to that. My mother cooks. That is how she…

  • Six labelled boxes

    Ozzy31 Oct 2025organised energy 1

    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…

  • Two lines a day

    Aria30 Oct 2025organised energy 5

    Three things this 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. Anchored…

  • Paired

    Jonty30 Oct 2025held energy 3

    Paired up. We text on Sunday nights, four or five lines each, and it has quietly become the most reliable thing in my week. She had a bad week and I had a fine one,…

  • Protein first

    Obi30 Oct 2025steady energy 1

    Notes for the 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.…

  • An unremarkable week

    Thea30 Oct 2025flat energy 4

    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…

  • Quiet

    Lucas29 Oct 2025flat energy 2

    Well then. 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. An…

  • Sunday lunch

    Aleks29 Oct 2025warm energy 5

    A wedding. Three courses I could not face, a table of people who noticed, and a very kind waiter who boxed it up without saying a word. My mother cooks. That is how…

  • Awake at four

    Bea29 Oct 2025rested energy 5

    Repeat study came back and the apnoea is much reduced. Ten years of that mask. The sleep has changed shape rather than improved. Different, not better, and I cannot…
