Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
I have written before about letting the 'light' in and referred to the Leonard Cohen song. I definitely feel lighter since my sessions. One of the things that has been on my mind since I went for Fascia release and TRE, Yolande said to me that our bodies have the ability to heal themselves, that …
When observant as only someone who is slightly obsessed can be, you can learn a lot about your subject of interest. I have a tendency to fill in the gaps between knowledge with my own imagination. Unfortunately for Norm he has to hear my theories about life. I am obsessed with birds, past the normal …
Last Saturday I had 2 of my girlfriends around for a visit. The weather had been fine all week, but then on Sunday we woke to rain and overcast skies. I decided it was too chilly for normal humans to sit outside (I do not feel the cold). I usually make an effort if entertaining …
This week I heard someone talking about not wanting to be 'that kindergartener who thinks that their artwork is amazing while everyone else looks at it sadly'. OK maybe that sadness is only when it is a pensioner instead of a kindergartener - else it is just sparkling disappointment, or something like that. Your honour, …
It is hard to believe that it is already almost September and therefore almost my birthday! I am turning 65 on the 3rd of September, so I will officially be a pensioner. I made several suggestions of things I desire and Norm says it sounds more like a Scavenger hunt than a birthday list. A …

You may think that my Psoas is getting a lot of airtime lately and you would be right. It is quite literally my entire focus at the moment. I have read that some schools of thought are that the psoas is not a muscle at all, but rather an organ. Every day I log on …
Last Saturday was very relaxed. I did interact with a newly identified bird, the Olive Thrush. It came down to the roof of the shed first and watched me for a few minutes. Then he dropped down onto the turf and started pecking at a piece of apple that I had given Poppy. Before she …
Norm and I were sitting outside last weekend in the evening and we were having one of our 'one of us is autistic' conversations. I often wonder what my neighbours must think if they hear the things we discuss. Lisa: I have been watching the snails. Norm: what? where? what snails? Lisa: There on the …
These last few weeks really made me conscious of the passing of time, something that is often skewed by my neurodiversity and time blindness. It also made me incredibly proud of the life and family I have built. July 5th was mine and Norman's 29th wedding anniversary. We were wed in the beautiful registry office …
