Before nine
Raysteady energy 1
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. Greek yoghurt, eggs, and…
An hour on the floor
Héloïsepleased energy 2
A brief account of the week. Sat on the floor and played for an hour, and then got up. That was the entire reason I started, and I have now done it. Tied my own laces…
Sunday night, four lines
Izzyheld energy 1
Right. My buddy noticed something in my journal before I did and asked me a very gentle question about it. Paired up. We text on Sunday nights, four or five lines…
Three cool bags and a thermometer
Jontyorganised energy 1
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. Tested three cool bags against a…
Somebody new
Linnetwarm energy 2
Sitting down to this properly tonight. Somebody new tonight, terrified, exactly where I was in the spring. I said the thing that had been said to me and watched it…
Quiet
Mosteady energy 2
Three things 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…
Paired
Rafeheld energy 3
A brief account of the week. My buddy noticed something in my journal before I did and asked me a very gentle question about it. Paired up. We text on Sunday nights,…
Across the day
Sarasteady energy 1
A gentle week, mostly. Got something with protein in before nine this morning, which meant the rest of the day did not fall apart at four. Protein first, everything…
I nearly did not write
Tansyfine energy 4
Well then. 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.…
A different shape
Aleksrested energy 5
Late, and writing anyway. Repeat study came back and the apnoea is much reduced. Ten years of that mask. Slept through. Whole night, no waking. It has been so long…
She read the diary
Clemmieheard energy 2
A gentle week, mostly. Took the diary in. She read it properly, which I had not expected, and changed the plan because of it. Nine minutes. I took three written…
Flat, again
Junofrayed energy 3
Well then. Flat again. I have stopped looking, which is either healthy or avoidance and I genuinely cannot tell. Three months of no change and my blood pressure has…
A new bin and a plan
Nettieorganised energy 5
This week: 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 bin, and a plan…
Off the floor
Petuapleased energy 2
A quiet week. 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…
I nearly did not write
Rillafine energy 3
Quick one. 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…
Two sessions
Wystantired but good energy 1
Grip strength has gone off and I noticed it opening a jar before I noticed it anywhere else. Back to loading properly. Kept the two sessions that matter and dropped…
Fewer, heavier
Abeltired but good energy 1
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…
Stayed for the company
Ashwarm energy 4
Right. Went for the practical answers and stayed for the company, which I gather is what everybody does. The facilitator stopped the room when four of us were talking…
Sunday lunch
Beawarm energy 5
Late, and writing anyway. 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.…
Nine minutes
Belbrisk energy 1
Asked the question I had been avoiding for eleven years. She answered it in about ninety seconds and was completely unbothered. Left with a printout I could not read…
I nearly did not write
Huwfine energy 1
This week: 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. No news. The…
How are you doing on a Wednesday
Pippaheld energy 1
A gentle week, mostly. Nobody has ever asked me how I was doing on a Wednesday before. She had a bad week and I had a fine one, and next month it will be the other…
She read the diary
Stefanfrustrated energy 4
Notes for the week. Asked the question I had been avoiding for eleven years. She answered it in about ninety seconds and was completely unbothered. Left with a…
