Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
Do you ever have one of those days that just feels blissfully perfect from start to end? I did last Saturday. First of all the weather was clear so I could pray to the 7 Directions outside on my hill when I woke up. Then I attended our women's group from 9:00 until 12:30 and …
I spent all of last Sunday doing my favourite things: bird watching and faffing about my garden. I took wild iris seed pods from the pool area and crumbled the pods and scattered the seeds in another area that is very shady and full of tree roots, so not much grows there. Let's see what …
I have mentioned before that Norm is doing an investigation into my family tree? You can read my previous post here. He is making great progress and just today has now followed my father's lineage back to the 1500s and linked us to King James of Scotland. In 1530/1533 Princess Jean Elizabeth of Scotland, Kelso …
Sometimes my weekends end up being so tiring even if I do nothing. This last weekend was so busy and therefore my tiredness was justified. This week has been full of dramas and disasters which has not really helped perk me up. Last Saturday we had our final Soul Circle for the year. It was …

This week I heard someone say that they do not believe in 'falling' in love, that to have a relationship you have to get up each day and 'choose' to be in love. I guess that is no different than what 'they' say about being happy, that it is a choice. I always thought that …
Not to be trite, but you know the phrase 'just because you can, does not mean you should'? Usually it is served with a side of shade or body shaming, but in this instance I am using it to refer to managing the household on my own. I coped perfectly fine with Norm away and …
It was lovely having a three day weekend both last weekend and this weekend, especially as that resulted in a three day work week and everyone loves that! Assuming that you are getting paid of course. I am very grateful for paid holidays, especially in such a stressful time as the Covid Era with so …
The entire planet seems to be in a panic about the risk of contracting Covid-19. At the time of writing this, South Africa was reporting 51 cases, and all of those infected people had traveled overseas. This was an increase of 13 additional cases from a report I had read the previous day and an …
