Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
Last weekend Norm did a lot of prep for a trip to Switzerland. He was up on Sunday and ready to go to the airport when he received an email from his hotel and noticed they referred to different dates. Luckily this triggered him to check his tickets and see that he flew on Monday, …
There are so many different 'Self Help' books & programs banging around that if you base your identity on one of them then you may end up feeling like you have (DID) Dissociative Identity Disorder (what used to be known as Multiple Personality Disorder). Are you this? Are you that? What if you are a …
It has been a busy week! I've swam, walked in the forest, gained a new client, spent time with my daughter and granddaughter, and started learning a new technical tool! For a housebound introvert this is a high achievement. Last weekend was hot but at least the humidity had broken from all of the rain. …

I spaced out and it was just …
Caitlin and Bree and I are flying down to George today for Lily's 'Sprinkle' which is what you call a celebration of your second child. Apparently they can use their siblings left overs and only deserve a tiny head wetting. This is sarcasm before anyone gets offended. In fact I was recently told that my …
As a person who loves fancy dress, Halloween has always been my favourite holiday. It is only the last year or two that Norm and I have not had a party or at least attended one. As well as my love of dressing up, I am always conscious that this time of year the veil …

I mentioned in my last post that I was going for derma blading, but after chatting to my skin therapist, we opted for a light peel and a session with the dermapen instead.
