Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
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 …
I find that the nearer we get to the end of the year, the faster things seem to roll past us. Even the weather is not feeling like December. Normally at this time of year it is very hot with very little rain but we have had all sorts of nonsense. Last Sunday we had …

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 …
I mentioned in last week's post that I was attending a workshop held by my friend Tamlyn. There were 5 of us there so a nice size group without feeling like you were 'performing' for a crowd and could not be vulnerable. Now I am going to go down the rabbit hole of the meaning …
I have had such a brilliant week! I mentioned that my daughter and granddaughter were staying with us so that she could be here to support her sister with her new baby. I have been looking after Amelia Ray when Lily goes to Caitlin's and she and I have had such fun. We have read …
Cape Town is such a place of extremes. This time it was the weather! This Saturday it is hot and summery and last Saturday the weather was horrendous in Hout Bay. Last Saturday Norm and the visitors took off about 9ish for Hermanus where the Annual Whale Festival was occurring. The thing about Cape Town …
