Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
This week has been busy but productive at least. Norm spoiled me and was such a brilliant support. I really am so lucky. I couldn't work the hours I do without his help in keeping the house running. On Monday he made dinner for us as Cait was staying the night at Wes. He made …
We have been blessed with another stunning day in Cape Town. We pottered about getting our back garden ready for spring and summer. We planned what to do at the back and finally decided on putting in a wooden deck. Panda enjoyed the sunshine. We emptied all the pots and filled them with new compost. …
I had such a fabulous birthday weekend where I ate everything from cinnamon rolls to Orange Cake. I threw Banting under the bus and as a result I gained 2kgs of my weight back. Oops. To be honest it was worth it. I already felt so dreadful from the low blood pressure I didn't notice …
On Tuesday I went to visit the staff nurse at my client to have her take my blood pressure. I had not had my BP meds that day and my BP was still within acceptable parameters (118/84). The nurse told me I should never just stop my BP meds, but then told me not to …
It's funny how my reaction to almost the exact same situation can change depending on one factor. For example, I woke at 6.45 Sunday morning. The sun was just peeking around the curtains, Norm rolled over and took my hand and Panda crept up from my feet to nestle in the crook of my body, …
I worked last week's public holiday so that this weekend I had a 4 day weekend but it has been far from relaxing. I woke on Monday to messages from my mom's friend's daughter that my Mom's car had been hit by a girl who ran a red light. Mom has very bad osteoporosis …
I never would have imagined I would lose two friends in the space of only a few months apart. First my friend Anze and now on Friday my good friend Pierre deciding to end his life. Image credit Josh Mercer Photography. His wife Retha is my best friend. I never would imagine Pierre could do this. …
Last Monday seemed to come round so quickly as it was just a regular two day weekend. It had started to get chilly so I was happy to have Sunday's leftover soup for lunch. I got in early to a stunning sunrise outside my office window. As we hadn't done a proper weekly shop …
After 4 lovely days off I was back at work on Tuesday to over 100 emails, 6 documents to review and issues on two of my projects. No chance of easing in gently to my 4 day work week. So that evening I only got home at 7pm, exactly 12 hours after I had left …
It was lovely to have my husband return home on Monday last week. He wasn’t gone very long, he only slept away 4 nights. We had a dog walker for Navajo and Charlie brought a friend one evening who offered to walk the Poms and then Caitlin walked them once so even the lil ones …
