Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
This week has been full of chaos and stress and fabulous things, I am like a yoyo. Next week I will be in George visiting Lily, Amelia, Josh and Trevor. I am looking forward to it so much! Last Sunday Norm and I were booked for lunch at Veldt DBE with Wesley, Caitlin and Bree. …
As the Queen once famously said about her entire year, this has been a weekus horribilis (aka a horrid week). In fact things have been extremely stressful since June when Navajo died.
