  • How are you doing on a Wednesday

    Anna2 Jun 2025held energy 1

    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,…

  • A different shape

    Dev2 Jun 2025tired energy 3

    Notes for the 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…

  • Slept through

    Gilly2 Jun 2025tired energy 3

    Right. 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 and…

  • Across the day

    Héloïse2 Jun 2025steady energy 3

    Spread it across the day instead of trying to do it all at teatime and everything got easier. Greek yoghurt, eggs, and the limits of both. I have reached the limits…

  • Eight minutes and a chair

    Kai2 Jun 2025tired but good energy 1

    Came back after a bad fortnight without trying to make up the lost ground, which is the thing that used to end it for me every time. Two sessions this week, both…

  • A new bin and a plan

    Martha2 Jun 2025organised energy 3

    A brief account of the week. Small logistics win: worked out where the pen actually lives in a fridge shared with four other people and a toddler's yoghurts. Tested…

  • A wedding

    Stefan2 Jun 2025warm energy 2

    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. Starters as a main course,…

  • Sunday night, four lines

    Rohan1 Jun 2025held energy 3

    Recording this for the record. Paired up. We text on Sunday nights, four or five lines each, and it has quietly become the most reliable thing in my week. My buddy…

  • Two lengths, badly

    Bex1 Jun 2025quietly delighted energy 3

    Got down on the floor and back up again unaided. I have not been able to do that since 2021 and I did it twice more just to check. Walked into town and back, which I…

  • The mirror

    Bly1 Jun 2025raw energy 3

    Late, and writing anyway. Clothes shopping was worse, not better. I sat in the car afterwards for twenty minutes. Strangers are being different with me and I hate it.…

  • An unremarkable week

    Bo1 Jun 2025flat energy 3

    Short one tonight. Steady. That is the whole entry. I nearly did not write this week because there was nothing in it. Then I thought about how much I have got out of…

  • Sunday lunch

    Freya1 Jun 2025warm energy 5

    Starters as a main course, permanently. No explanation offered, none requested. A wedding. Three courses I could not face, a table of people who noticed, and a very…

  • Quiet

    Harlan1 Jun 2025steady energy 2

    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 unremarkable week.…

  • I nearly did not write

    Maple1 Jun 2025steady energy 5

    Steady. That is the whole entry. An unremarkable week. Ate, walked, worked, slept adequately. This is what most of it looks like. No news. The dog is well, the…

  • Steady

    Rafe1 Jun 2025flat energy 5

    Quiet. Injection Tuesday, mild Wednesday, fine by Thursday, and then a normal weekend. An unremarkable week. Ate, walked, worked, slept adequately. This is what most…

  • Somebody new

    Ravi1 Jun 2025steadied energy 2

    Recording this for the record. 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…

  • Quiet

    Ronan1 Jun 2025flat energy 5

    This week: Steady. That is the whole entry. No news. The dog is well, the weather has been foul, and I have taken my medication on the correct day for the eleventh…

  • No news

    Tam1 Jun 2025fine energy 2

    Week in order: 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…

  • Paired

    Tilda1 Jun 2025held energy 2

    Three things this week. Paired up. We text on Sunday nights, four or five lines each, and it has quietly become the most reliable thing in my week. My buddy noticed…

  • Walking

    Aleks31 May 2025tired but good energy 4

    Late, and writing anyway. Walked instead of the bus all week. Not a programme. Just walking. Kept the two sessions that matter and dropped the two that were vanity.…

  • No news

    Bodhi31 May 2025fine energy 4

    Steady. That is the whole entry. An unremarkable week. Ate, walked, worked, slept adequately. This is what most of it looks like. No news. The dog is well, the…

  • Steady

    Cato31 May 2025steady energy 4

    Steady. That is the whole entry. 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.…

  • She noticed first

    Ephraim31 May 2025held energy 3

    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. Nobody has ever asked me how I was doing on a…

  • An hour on the floor

    Harri31 May 2025pleased energy 4

    Notes for the week. Tied my own laces standing up. I am aware of how that sounds and I do not care. Up the stairs at work twice without stopping at the landing. I…
