Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
This week I heard a term which really resonated with me. Once again I cannot remember where I heard it, but the theory is that the reason that we cannot see the future impact of the actions or decisions we make today is due to 'dissociation from our future selves'. So we struggle with visualising …
We have all noted how time seems to have no meaning when there is a baby in the house. Lily has to feed Amelia around the clock and sometimes it seems like we do not know what day it is. In fact, in our Wednesday morning stand up I said 'Happy Friday!' which got me …
On the night I arrived in George, on our way home from the airport, we thought we saw the North Star. It was reflecting so brightly that I thought it was actually the moon, but it was a full moon that night, not a crescent and I could see Mr Moon on the other side …
I subscribe to a site which sends me 'Morning Messages' and these are always so spot on it is a bit scary. Of course, critics will say that like 'horoscopes' the messages are vague enough that they will resonate with most people, but then if it resonates with me, then that is enough. On Tuesday …

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 …
Each week we have a different area to explore in our Keto Group. This week we are supposed to be aware of 'daily self-talk', you know that little voice that we hear in our heads? I like to call mine my 'Inner Saboteur'. Let's call her 'Miss S' so that I do not have to …
Today is a very special day. We collect our Finn later this afternoon. The breeder used Pets Travel, and the company has been absolutely amazing. They have set up a WhatsApp group with me, the drivers and the agent and they have been sending me updates throughout the journey. I was so excited last night …
As the Queen once famously said about her entire year, this has been a weekus horribilis (aka a horrid week). In fact things have been extremely stressful since June when Navajo died. On Tuesday afternoon I heard that Kate, a friend from my Drumming group, had passed away. Kate is the gorgeous redhead in the …
