Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
The weather last weekend was hot but the heat was tempered by the insane winds we were having. The wind howled all day Saturday and Sunday. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/UqatqfLkgOc I did not mind as I was having a do nothing weekend. I watched several movies and series. I ate popcorn. I spaced out and it was just …
I've mentioned how happy Amelia gets when one of us understands what she is trying to say and I thought about that and realised that being understood is what many of us strive for in our lives, even once we are adults. Maybe that is why I relate to Amelia so, the lifelong misunderstanding of …
This week has been absolute chaos and disarray. The only consolation is that we chose this chaos and the end result will be worth it. We had a team of builders arrive on Monday and they made wonderful progress! The bathroom feature wall tiles were up the first day and the tiny powder room sink …
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 …
You know when you were a kid and you were on holiday and you had that 'summer feeling' where your skin felt salty and tight from chlorine or sea water? Sitting with damp swimsuits on the chair cushions and knowing you will regret it later after you have changed and you get your new clothes …
Last weekend was great for catching up with my social groups after my month in George. I saw so many of my pals either on Saturday, Sunday or both! I mentioned my Soul Circle group on Saturday in last week's post. On Sunday I met 'L', a woman who is here for work for a …
The only bad thing about a 3 day weekend is how long the following week feels, but the long weekend itself was lovely. A nice mix of friends, family, outings and visits. Last Sunday it was Father's Day so Caitlin came to collect us and we went off to the Hout Bay Harbour Market. https://www.instagram.com/p/CtoVB65qpM8/ …
I usually pride myself on my organisational skills. I mean I am a Virgo Sun Sign with at least 3 other planets in Virgo, I should be the most organised person on earth. But lately I seem to keep dropping the ball and double booking myself. I think it is because I am not used …
This was the longest 4 day week in history. Tuesday was a public holiday in South Africa. It was 'Women's Day'. I've written before about how high the levels of Gender Based Violence and domestic violence are in South Africa, so this day is just a platitude as nothing changes. We are no more safe …
I have a confession to make. I have an obsession with birds. Not in a lesbian sorta way, but in a David Attenborough sorta way. When I was young I do not remember having this fascination with birds. I do remember sitting out on the patio in Georgia with my beloved Grandmother watching the birds …
