Most of my working life has been spent in libraries, but in my younger days I trained and worked as a nurse. Now I have given up paid employment to cultivate the art of not working, and save my life at the same time. Life isn't always easy, but it's what we've got. Carpe diem!

Murmuration

This is lovely! I've watched it three times already. What an amazing stroke of luck that they just happened to be there. Those young women will remember that for the rest of their lives.

  5. Hi Judith - about your comment to me. You only need to do that leptin rx if you are leptin resistant. Do you think after being low carb for a long time you would be? I have not done this but feel I am not leptin resistant any more. Perhaps good eating does the trick as well?
