Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
I watched the new Shonda Rimes series 'Black Barbie' on Netflix. I had no clue about the huge difference in the timeline of when a white Barbie hit the shelves and when a 'black' Barbie was finally developed, and how much longer it was before a black doll with more realistic features was created. The …
I spent all of last Sunday doing my favourite things: bird watching and faffing about my garden. I took wild iris seed pods from the pool area and crumbled the pods and scattered the seeds in another area that is very shady and full of tree roots, so not much grows there. Let's see what …
I mentioned last week that I have decided to just completely go with the flow and be open to what the universe brings me. Since then I have realised that one of the ways I help people is just by talking to them. I have so many people message me and tell me so many …
I have mentioned before that Norm is doing an investigation into my family tree? You can read my previous post here. He is making great progress and just today has now followed my father's lineage back to the 1500s and linked us to King James of Scotland. In 1530/1533 Princess Jean Elizabeth of Scotland, Kelso …

My kids cannot believe that I can tolerate animals in my environment, much less sleeping in the bed with me. I have always been incredibly OCD, in particular about germs. I still am a germ avoider where I can be but I do not stress out about their mess any longer. Usually. Norm arrived back …
This week has been a bit eventful, but for a home bird like me I guess the bar is pretty low. Norm was away all week so I was coping on my own. I delayed last week's post until we arrived back on Sunday afternoon from our road trip and then Norm flew to Cambodia …
I have had a rather chaotic week. First, I was living like all the single ladies last Monday to Wednesday as Norm was away in Johannesburg. He had booked the doggy day care to take Finn all day so he was occupied all day and exhausted at night. I still had 4 beasties which I …
Friends know that I am frog-o-phobic and we have a horrendous situation going on at the moment. We have a toad somewhere in the house. How do we know? Toad poop. If you know toad poop, then you are never mistaken about the origin of that poop. It has no sphincter marks like normal poop …
