Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
This week in my daily Native American Elders' Daily Meditation the quote mentioned that Native custom believes that the more you give, the more you get. I love this way of thinking. You cannot just sit on your glories, you must share with those less fortunate. I am very generous but only with those I …
I am a worrier by nature and I have to really keep focused on positivity and gratitude, rather than obsessing over things that most likely will never happen. Since we got little Poppy, I have watched her leap fearlessly off of things, bounce across the garden, dash under our feet and fall over frequently. I …
I usually do not really suffer with jet-lag but this trip it has really hit me hard. Possibly it is because I started a new contract the day after we returned home? I have had to nap or at least rest a bit each afternoon as I have not been sleeping well at night, I …
This has been a week of chaos of the best kind. My daughter Lily and granddaughter Amelia were here all week again but they left on Thursday morning. I mentioned in last week's post that Norm and I were off to the theatre to see My Fair Lady. We were both excited for a night …
This week has been chaos, some things were fabulous and some were challenging. It was my last week of work on the project I have been a Data Architect on for several years. I love this team and have learned so much. I had a Data Quality report to deliver which meant developing the code …

This has been a week huntyyyy! Norm only returned from Qatar on Monday so I was on my own last weekend. I was so tired that I just hibernated. I was harbouring a lot of anxiety and stress about the phone call from HR the Friday afternoon advising my contract ends at the end of …
I have a few odd 'things' when it comes to 'performers'. I do not watch magicians. I find them unimpressive. I am not a fan of comedians as most of them mistake cruelty for comedy. The only exception is the comedy which is based on truth. Anything that makes me nod along and relate to, …
Superheroes have a lot to answer for. Even old school knights were often pictured with a cape wafting heroically around them in the wind. We talk about someone 'caping' to mean defending someone indefensible. We have been conditioned to expect a man to come and save us from all of our dilemmas. Even I do …
We have a family 'joke' that every time Norm travels out of the country there is some drama or catastrophe. There were a few dramas this week which would normally be dealt with by Norm, but with him not here I had to be both Lisa and Norm! I mentioned in a previous post about …
