Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
We have been really enjoying our visit to the US and have been very busy. Mostly with eating, shopping and socializing but still busy! Aka get a cuppa and settle in for a bit of a long read. On Monday Mom, Norm and I went on a mission to find my Mother of the Bride …
South Africans had a moment of huge pride this week when the beautiful Zozibini Tunzi was crowned Miss Universe. There had been so many comments on social media about her short natural hair. She was told to wear a wig to make her more attractive but she was confident enough to trust her own natural …
Thanks to my fabulous Sunday evening last weekend, on Monday morning I was a wee bit hungover. I had left the office early the previous Friday so I missed the arrival of a meeting invite for Monday but luckily I wore a nice dress and did not look a tramp despite my fuzzy head. We …

I have five more days on my current project and then hopefully I don't ever have to work again with the developer I've had so many issues with. This week he allegedly developed 10 data rules but only half were valid. He could not even get his job to complete on Friday but felt no …

My current contract obligation was primarily to document the metadata for a new data lake analysis environment being built and …
Yesterday I went to my drumming circle. I haven't gone in over a month for various reasons, one weekend I was suffering from stress another was when Panda was sick and I had to look after him then the last event Norm was sick. My voice took a lot of strain as I have not …
Every day we see some new bit of progress with Panda's development. If you compare his progress from my last blog to this one it is amazing! I usually write a few notes each day in my blog and then connect the dots and tie it all together when I'm ready to post but I …
