Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
This week has been chaos, some things were fabulous and some were challenging. It was my last week of work on the project I have been a Data Architect on for several years. I love this team and have learned so much. I had a Data Quality report to deliver which meant developing the code …
I find that the nearer we get to the end of the year, the faster things seem to roll past us. Even the weather is not feeling like December. Normally at this time of year it is very hot with very little rain but we have had all sorts of nonsense. Last Sunday we had …
This week has flown past, possibly because Norm was away since Thursday morning so I was Chief in Charge. It was a bit overwhelming so I put a routine in place since each of the dogs need meds throughout the day, I put on alarms via my phone and of course created a spreadsheet otherwise …
Sometimes the thing that you want the most is also the thing which will change your life completely, yet that part is never thought about. You only focus on the acquisition. Finn is a case in point. We wanted him so much (and still do) but we are finished. He has so much energy and …
I have had such a wonderful week and weekend. Last week we had my beautiful baby girl Lily in Cape Town from Sunday night until Friday morning as she was down here taking a wood-working course. Lily stayed with us until Friday and then she went to spend her last night in town with my …

It started storming last Sunday night and the foul weather reflected our gloomy moods. Norm had a terrible cold and was dosing on and off on the couch and every time the wind blew against the doors it sounded like Navajo hitting the door with his paw to be let in. So many things brought …
The renovations on our upstairs started on Monday. They are doing the main bedroom and our en-suite bathroom first. Norm worked like a demon all weekend moving all of our bedroom furniture over to one of the other bedrooms and has set up a nice little temporary home for us. This is the cleared out …
On Thursday Norm decided to go to one of the vaccination centres on the other side of Cape Town which has been vaccinating walk in patients as long as they are registered on the government portal. He did not have to wait long at all, they vaccinated him and he was back home in a …
On the public holiday Norm and I made a lot of progress on our succulent garden. We moved the Ganesh statue my kids had given me out there as the centre piece. He looks so lovely in the sun. https://www.instagram.com/p/COLAnogJLKt/ We moved a lot of my existing pots from the patio and from other areas …
