Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
I'm always more pleased to receive gifts that show someone thought about the things that interest me, rather than gifts that they picked up at the chemist on the 'Mother's Day' / 'Valentines Day' marketing section on the shelves. Norman always knows the things that make me happy no matter how simple. My kids are …
The difference in my life between last weekend and this weekend is like night is to day. Last weekend I was surrounded by noisy, energetic, sticky small humans and this weekend I woke up with a Pomeranian on my head. Last Sunday I woke to the usual sounds of the kids shrieking with either laughter …
The rain was constant last weekend. On Sunday morning I lay in bed listening to the pouring rain watching TikTok videos and laughing over posts on threads until after 11am. Norm brought me two rounds of cappuccinos in my favourite cup. Eventually I got up and showered and I packed my suitcase for my flight …
Last weekend Norm did a lot of prep for a trip to Switzerland. He was up on Sunday and ready to go to the airport when he received an email from his hotel and noticed they referred to different dates. Luckily this triggered him to check his tickets and see that he flew on Monday, …
People often ask me why I bothered to get diagnosed with Autism and ADHD at my age, did it make any difference to have a label? For me it clarifies why I do some of the things I do or think the way that I think. For example, I can just sit in my fairy …
Every year we end up having to buy an extra suitcase for all of the Christmas gifts I have ordered for everyone, but this year we had our limit of luggage and weight. We thought we had plenty of space until the last week when we (and by 'we' I mean Norman) finished up packing …
Last weekend was really cold and overcast. As we have no heat in our house other than a wood fireplace that we could not be bothered to light, it was really cold in the house too. I was wearing 4 layers of tops, wooly socks and fur lined boots and was still wrapped up in …
This has been a really hard week for our family. It has not helped that the weather has been stifling hot and that it got up to 30℃ on Monday. Sometimes it was even too hot to sit outside as there was not a breath of wind. It makes me feel lethargic and sludgy. Last …
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 …
Do you ever have one of those days that just feels blissfully perfect from start to end? I did last Saturday. First of all the weather was clear so I could pray to the 7 Directions outside on my hill when I woke up. Then I attended our women's group from 9:00 until 12:30 and …
