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 …
Every time I experience an instant manifestation, it always surprises me so much, even though it happens quite frequently. Last Saturday was the Women's Group I had mentioned attending. The meeting is held in Berg en Dal estate and the host's home is right up at the top, backing onto the mountain. I was sitting …
Last Saturday night we were invited to dinner with my daughter Caitlin and son in law Wesley. Poppy went with us and she was so well behaved and did not get car sick this time. She lay in my lap like a perfect little princess on the way there and back. Maybe she is outgrowing …

I mentioned in my last post that Norm's birthday was Sunday the 17th and that we were going for a Tasting Menu lunch at Foxcroft with Caitlin and Wes. As many 'big girls' do I had carefully pre-planned what I was going to be wearing: it had to be comfortable enough to eat copious amounts …
I had such a lovely weekend with my daughters last week. Last Saturday Lily went to a baby shower for a friend who lives in Cape Town and then came to join Caitlin and I to do some painting at Clay Café. Caitlin nor I had eaten so we ordered food when we arrived. Healthy …
One certainty about living in South Africa is that everything is often uncertain. My current project has been full of uncertainties. We have been asking for a plan with priorities and it was finally presented on Wednesday. We felt confident and charged off with our top 5 priorities. Then on Thursday the plan changed. It …
