Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
Time flies by so quickly, I also find that the older one gets, the more it seems to accelerate. I was ill with my stomach for 3 weeks so avoided everyone in case of germ transfer, then Caitlin was having a visit with her dad and brother for a week, and the next thing you …
Yesterday was such an eventful day that my post is a wee bit delayed. Usually I write a bit at the end of the day as well so that I do not have to try and remember what I did, but this week I did not do that so I hope I do not mix …
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.

This has been such an amazing week and it feels like a month since I posted! On last Friday afternoon Caitlin collected me and we set off on the 450 km / 276 mile journey down to the Garden Route which usually takes about 5 hours on average to drive, factoring in at least one …
When you are twenty, twenty years seems like a life time. I guess that is because it is. Even when you are old AF twenty years seems like a life time. Hence my surprise every time mine and Norman's anniversary rolls around and I add up the duration of our years together. (Much like my …
