Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
I now get as excited about a bird as I used to about sexy shoes. These days I have zero pairs of sexy shoes as I only wear flats and most of those are boots, and not the sexy kind of boots. That reminds me of a story when I first moved to Cape Town. …
I have had such a busy week at work full of all day review meetings and analysis and documentation. I love both of the latter but am not too fond of the meetings aspect. I read so fast I have consumed the info on the screen and interrupted the presenter to give them my answer …
My daughter Lily and granddaughter Amelia drove down from George on Thursday afternoon week before last. It was a 6 hour journey with Lily having to amuse Amelia and drive but they managed it. Lily was carting a truck full of things. She had loads of clothes to pass on to Caitlin that Amelia has …
I often do a 'music video of the week' or a 'film/series of the week' recommendation in my posts, but I think I might need to add a 'Word of the Week' section because I am getting so many comments by people who identify with my latest explorations into various aspects of Neurodiversity.

Do you ever have one of those days that just feels blissfully perfect from start to end? I did last Saturday. First of all the weather was clear so I could pray to the 7 Directions outside on my hill when I woke up. Then I attended our women's group from 9:00 until 12:30 and …

I sing continuously either in my head or out loud. …
There are so many trite sayings about how wonderful it is to spend time with your grown up children but they are all true. Even doing nothing is fine if I am doing nothing with my kids. When I see them happy and doing well at life it especially makes me feel pleased. My daughter …
Today we have woken up to a gorgeous day! Everything outside is sodden but the sun is shining bright and the birds are all singing happily. https://www.instagram.com/p/C9o6XmNKEP6/ The previous week has been a bit hit or miss with the weather with the only consistency being that it was icy cold. The rain came and went …
This past weekend was just so fabulous. My daughter Caitlin and I flew down to George from Cape Town at an obscenely early time of day last Thursday morning so that we could spend that whole day with Lily, Amelia and Josh. We woke at 4am and just threw on warm clothes and left as …
On Saturday Norm and I attended the matinee production of 'Hollywood'. I love the venue Theatre on the Bay and often just book tickets on a whim which is what I did with this show. I knew nothing about the show and when we arrived we were baffled by the fact that there were young …
