Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
This has been such a bizarre week with such extremes. On Wednesday my friend Sam and her husband Neal arrived much to the delight of both Norm and I who adore her to bits. Sam is usually the other person co-starring in most of my great stories. We met when we worked together at British …
I have predominately avoided politics in my writing lately because it generates anxiety in me to discuss everything over and over. Norm and I used to always watch the news before bed to catch up on the world's happenings but eventually it was upsetting me so much it affected my ability to get to sleep. …
This week has been full on. Work is incredibly busy. At home, we just put in some new front lawn, we started renovating the kitchen, it is Halloween weekend and my family arrived from George. It was very bad planning with the family being here, but Norm is away soon and we have our friend …

Sunday before last, my daughter Caitlin came over with my granddaughter for a visit. They went for swim lessons that morning and then Caitlin stopped and got food for …
I have written before about letting the 'light' in and referred to the Leonard Cohen song. I definitely feel lighter since my sessions. One of the things that has been on my mind since I went for Fascia release and TRE, Yolande said to me that our bodies have the ability to heal themselves, that …
When observant as only someone who is slightly obsessed can be, you can learn a lot about your subject of interest. I have a tendency to fill in the gaps between knowledge with my own imagination.
