Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
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 …
It was lovely to have Norm there when I woke last Sunday after being away. We had a slow morning as Norm was still tired from the flight. We finally headed out for lunch at noon. We decided for a change to try Deli Delish in Hout Bay. We used to go there often but it's changed …
This week was my second week with Norm away. He spent a week in Switzerland on a consulting contract and the second in the UK on personal business. I missed him terribly. The girls were brilliant support and we had someone to walk Navajo every day. But I still missed my other half. But we …
I sometimes feel as if my life is just an endless round of the same activities, my own personal Groundhog Day. Wake at 6, up at 6.30, try to leave by 7 (but always leave later), spend ages in traffic, walk to my office, work for 9-10 hours, walk to car, drive home, cook dinner, …
