Virgo Moon Madness

It is stress or change which drives most growth. Kim, the guy who helps in the garden, was here and we discussed how to manage the tree by the pool where the roots are cracking the pavement. He said we should just cut the whole tree down. He said that if we cut off a …

between the mountain and the ant

Do you ever have one of those days where it seems every thing is coming at you all at once and nothing goes smoothly? Monday before last, Norm had booked the plumber and the electrician to come and I had booked Chichi to come and clean and Kim to come and work in the garden. …

Your Highest Self

This week our internet died and I had 2 meetings booked to present the document I have put together so far for my client. I managed to bungle through the first one without being able to hear anyone, but the second was with senior management and the internet died completely and tossed me out of …

Celebrating Family

This past weekend was just so fabulous. My daughter Caitlin and I flew down to George from Cape Town at an obscenely early time of day last Thursday morning so that we could spend that whole day with Lily, Amelia and Josh. We woke at 4am and just threw on warm clothes and left as …

Water and Release

Last weekend was such a lovely vibe, starting so fabulously with the Organic Magic Project Event on Friday. Then on Saturday Norm drove me out to Scarborough to say goodbye to Tass my beloved teacher. Norm is always willing to be my transport as he knows how driving makes me so anxious but he is …

The Power

Even the dreadful news we were given last Friday afternoon that I may be forced to go into the office four days a week could not ruin last weekend, it was really lovely. The wind was howling last Saturday but it was a stunning clear day. https://www.instagram.com/p/CsLhs5sKDtH/ Norm and I popped over to Mr Price …

The Weight of Other People’s Opinions

I mentioned in my last post that Norm's birthday was Sunday the 17th and that we were going for a Tasting Menu lunch at Foxcroft with Caitlin and Wes. As many 'big girls' do I had carefully pre-planned what I was going to be wearing: it had to be comfortable enough to eat copious amounts …

Bewitched and Bedazzled

Last week my house sitter told me that our garden is looking lovely and that made me so happy! Obviously I think so but it is nice to hear from others that it is noticed. If only I could blink like Samantha from Bewitched and have all of our planned changes done at once. Instead …

The Same Way Twice

Last week Norm met our new neighbours who have moved into the property that was previously a guest house. He said they seem nice, the husband is a Frenchman named Pierre and the wife is named Saskia and is Greek (he thinks). We share the wall by our pool in common. This is the same …
