Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
I normally never go into a shopping mall, certainly never on a Saturday, and definitely not just before Christmas. However, we will often do anything for our children and so I violated all of those rules last Saturday. I had to park miles away, it was incredibly hot and I was dripping with sweat by …
The weather last weekend was hot but the heat was tempered by the insane winds we were having. The wind howled all day Saturday and Sunday. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/UqatqfLkgOc I did not mind as I was having a do nothing weekend. I watched several movies and series. I ate popcorn. I spaced out and it was just …
After such a beautiful day last Saturday, on Sunday the weather turned again and we woke to rain that morning. Norm and I had planned on having a wander around the garden centre as I had a voucher to spend, but I did not fancy roaming around in the rain so we decided to postpone …
I usually do not really suffer with jet-lag but this trip it has really hit me hard. Possibly it is because I started a new contract the day after we returned home? I have had to nap or at least rest a bit each afternoon as I have not been sleeping well at night, I …

I have had such a lovely holiday. I know I said I would write while in the States but I only had my iPad and it takes too long to type on that so I decided to just relax and not worry about writing. Therefore you have 3 weeks of info for me to condense …
This week has been full of fabulousness as well as a bit of heartbreak and my usual levels of disorganisation. I advised in my last post that my daughter Lily's kitty Rocket was missing. They finally discovered that he had been knocked over by a car and died. We are all so sad for Lily …
I have a confession to make. I have an obsession with birds. Not in a lesbian sorta way, but in a David Attenborough sorta way. When I was young I do not remember having this fascination with birds. I do remember sitting out on the patio in Georgia with my beloved Grandmother watching the birds …
The last month has been the longest in years that I have gone without writing. I use writing as a way to process my thoughts and feelings and to put things in perspective, or just as a way to diarise my life. I enjoy it when my old blogs pop up as Facebook memories and …
