Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
Whenever I hear a message multiple times, I always assume I am meant to notice. The message that came through to me was presented as a variety of ways, but it gave me the same sort of emotion, so I am grouping them together for my own interpretation. You have been waiting all of your …
I had such a wonderful weekend last week! Firstly, my darling husband was home. Then on Saturday I saw my friend Annette who has been in my life for about 35 years. We met in George when our sons were best friends and our husbands worked together. We have stayed in touch through various relationships, …
It has been a busy week! I've swam, walked in the forest, gained a new client, spent time with my daughter and granddaughter, and started learning a new technical tool!

We had so much fun and a lot of chaos during our visit to George in the Western Cape. I flew down with my daughter Caitlin and her daughter Bree on Friday after work. Bree was so good on the flight, barely made a peep and happily chomped on our Chicken Tikka sandwiches (the best …
It is just unbelievable how much renovation disrupts your home, your routines and your mental state. My mental state is very much influenced by disorganisation. I know where everything is (usually in my desk) and not having things easily locatable was doing my head in. Norm put in the desk drawers on Sunday which certainly …
