Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
This has been such a busy week! First of all, we still have our overseas visitors with us until next Monday. Last Monday I had to go back to work and Norm took his guests up Table Mountain. Apparently everyone in the entire province also decided to go at that time and Norm had to …
Every single thing seems to create a debate or an argument these days, including something as innocuous as Mother's Day. Women were complaining that no one recognises them on the day, some were complaining that it is wrong that it is only one day where mom's get treated nicely, some were sad because their mom …
As much as I love being back in my own home, I really miss waking up to little Millie's gorgeous smile. It is impossible to be sad or unhappy with that little bundle grinning her cheeky toothless smile. She has this way of staring straight into your eyes with such intensity, it feels like she …
I have had a great week. Work is still hectic as we ramp up on the design and documentation of multiple new interfaces but I am feeling in control and not over-whelmed. We are starting with our design workshops which last most of the day with the system integrator. On Friday our internet crashed at …

My weekend has been fabulous. Saturday I was invited to attend a self defense class hosted by Lucinda Evans and the organization 'One Billion Rising'. https://instagram.com/p/B8EaSaLp0Li/ It was held in an area of Cape Town called Lavender Hill which sounds so pretty and makes you expect to see chocolate box cottages and undulating fields of …
What a mad week. Norm and I were both very grateful for a lazy stress free weekend and we took full advantage of our free diary. We had a long lie in bed on Saturday morning. We only emerged due to my sore back needing to move about a bit. We moved downstairs and contemplated …
Even though it is not quite December, the season seems to be fully launched. The week flew by and it was the weekend again before I caught my breath. On Thursday night we had a work function in the city centre. I left my office in Mowbray promptly at 3pm and shot off to Hout …
Every year I sign up to donate to Operation Shoebox. This year I signed up for 2 newborns and I did my shopping on Friday. As the babies may not be born yet I do not know whether they will boys or girls so I did boxes which are suitable for either. I used yellow and …
