Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
I have predominately avoided politics in my writing lately because it generates anxiety in me to discuss everything over and over. Norm and I used to always watch the news before bed to catch up on the world's happenings but eventually it was upsetting me so much it affected my ability to get to sleep. …
You may think that my Psoas is getting a lot of airtime lately and you would be right. It is quite literally my entire focus at the moment. I have read that some schools of thought are that the psoas is not a muscle at all, but rather an organ. Every day I log on …
Norm and I were sitting outside last weekend in the evening and we were having one of our 'one of us is autistic' conversations. I often wonder what my neighbours must think if they hear the things we discuss. Lisa: I have been watching the snails. Norm: what? where? what snails? Lisa: There on the …
Last weekend Norm did a lot of prep for a trip to Switzerland. He was up on Sunday and ready to go to the airport when he received an email from his hotel and noticed they referred to different dates. Luckily this triggered him to check his tickets and see that he flew on Monday, …

Caitlin and Bree and I are flying down to George today for Lily's 'Sprinkle' which is what you call a celebration of your second child. Apparently they can use their siblings left overs and only deserve a tiny head wetting. This is sarcasm before anyone gets offended. In fact I was recently told that my …
This past week was a bit transformative for me. I mentioned in my last post that I was going for derma blading, but after chatting to my skin therapist, we opted for a light peel and a session with the dermapen instead. A dermapen is specific brand of an automated micro-needling device that uses an …
This week has been absolute chaos and disarray. The only consolation is that we chose this chaos and the end result will be worth it. We had a team of builders arrive on Monday and they made wonderful progress! The bathroom feature wall tiles were up the first day and the tiny powder room sink …
I had a surreal experience this week. Last Sunday was Father's Day and I posted a tribute to my Dad who died before my children were born. I sat thinking about him a lot over Sunday and Monday, wishing that I had videos of him to show my kids and grandkids and sad that I …
