This week: 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…
Off the floor

Walked into town and back, which I stopped doing years ago without ever deciding to stop. Walked the full length of the pier and back. Swam. First time since school.…
Circle tonight
Wystanwarm energy 4
Somebody new tonight, terrified, exactly where I was in the spring. I said the thing that had been said to me and watched it land. Went for the practical answers and…
Laces
Rowanpleased energy 4
This week: Tied my own laces standing up. I am aware of how that sounds and I do not care. Got down on the floor and back up again unaided. I have not been able to do…
A different shape
Brunorested energy 2
Waking at four again. Not anxious, just awake, lying there listening to the boiler. The sleep has changed shape rather than improved. Different, not better, and I…
An hour on the floor
Carlpleased energy 2turning point
This week: 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 with his granddaughter and got back…
Slept through
Heddafoggy energy 4
The sleep has changed shape rather than improved. Different, not better, and I cannot yet tell whether I mind. Vivid dreams, every night, the sort you have to sit up…
Laces
Hollypleased energy 2
A quiet week. 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. Tied my own laces…
Flat, whole night
Morayquietly delighted energy 4
Right. Swam. First time since school. Two lengths, badly, grinning. Walked into town and back, which I stopped doing years ago without ever deciding to stop. Got down…
Six labelled boxes
Odileorganised energy 4
Batch cooked on a good day for the bad days. Six labelled boxes in the freezer and a great deal of smugness. Two lines a day in a paper diary. Date, and one thing.…

Ten minutes then I am asleep. 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…
An unremarkable week
Pippasteady energy 1
Sitting down to this properly tonight. Steady. That is the whole entry. Nothing to report. Writing it down anyway, on the theory that a journal made only of eventful…
Starters as a main
Posyloved energy 2
This week: Starters as a main course, permanently. No explanation offered, none requested. My mother cooks. That is how she says it. So I eat what I can, slowly, and…
No mask
Ronanfoggy energy 3
This week: Slept through. Whole night, no waking. It has been so long that I lay there in the morning trying to work out what was different. Repeat study came back…
Come back in a year
Sampleased energy 1turning point
Notes for the week. Three years of results side by side. A trend rather than a moment, which is apparently the only thing worth looking at. A1c out of the prediabetes…
Circle tonight
Solomonwarm energy 3
Week in order: Circle tonight. Eight of us, an hour, and about eleven minutes of actual information. The rest was the point. The facilitator stopped the room when…
The limits of yoghurt
Taviasteady energy 2
Protein first, everything else after. It is not interesting advice and it is the only advice that has changed anything. Greek yoghurt, eggs, and the limits of both. I…
The list on the fridge

Ten minutes then I am asleep. Protein first, everything else after. It is not interesting advice and it is the only advice that has changed anything. I have found…
Anchored to the shifts

Week in order: New sharps bin, and a plan for what happens to it when I move in September. Batch cooked on a good day for the bad days. Six labelled boxes in the…
Before nine
Callasteady energy 1
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…
Steady

Right. 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. Steady. That is the whole…
