Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
I continue to be observant of Mother Nature reaching out and contacting me. In my prayers on Monday when I said "Thank you for the birds" a bird sitting on the gate gave a loud squawk. When I put my hands out, palms upwards, and turned towards the West and gave thanks for the rain, …
The weather has led to a lot of people being sick at the moment so I tried to get a flu shot but there are none available. Chichi came to work on Monday and as soon as she spoke I could hear the congestion. Norm popped on a face mask and drove her home. It …
I had a message from my Maternal Grandmother this week. That might be normal for many of you but mine passed away over 20 years ago. I had seen the most amazing pictures of a garden with a variety of beautiful, unusually coloured irises and it made me think of my Grandmother who loved irises. …

This week has been full of chaos and stress and fabulous things, I am like a yoyo. Next week I will be in George visiting Lily, Amelia, Josh and Trevor. I am looking forward to it so much! Last Sunday Norm and I were booked for lunch at Veldt DBE with Wesley, Caitlin and Bree. …
