Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
I have been Head of the House all week as Norm was away in Ghana until yesterday. I often say I hate having responsibilities, that they give me anxiety as I always feel like I am forgetting something. Sort of like when you wake up late and you feel like you need to hurry all …
Time flies by so quickly, I also find that the older one gets, the more it seems to accelerate. I was ill with my stomach for 3 weeks so avoided everyone in case of germ transfer, then Caitlin was having a visit with her dad and brother for a week, and the next thing you …
Typical of the Mother City, the weather has been erratic all week. We had several days of really severe winds. Then we had several days of intense heat, it was 31℃ on Tuesday. That evening I sat outside at the back and took advantage of the weather finally cooling off a bit. The cats and …
This has been a week of chaos of the best kind. My daughter Lily and granddaughter Amelia were here all week again but they left on Thursday morning. I mentioned in last week's post that Norm and I were off to the theatre to see My Fair Lady. We were both excited for a night …
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 …

This has been a week huntyyyy! Norm only returned from Qatar on Monday so I was on my own last weekend. I was so tired that I just hibernated. I was harbouring a lot of anxiety and stress about the phone call from HR the Friday afternoon advising my contract ends at the end of …
One of my key memories with my Grandmother is the time we spent in the garden. Or 'the yard' as she called it, despite her house sitting on 20 acres of land. My Grandmother Rena was full of superstitions and 'old wives tales' and I wish I had taken the time to write them all …
I have had such a busy week at work full of all day review meetings and analysis and documentation. I love both of the latter but am not too fond of the meetings aspect. I read so fast I have consumed the info on the screen and interrupted the presenter to give them my answer …
My daughter Lily and granddaughter Amelia drove down from George on Thursday afternoon week before last. It was a 6 hour journey with Lily having to amuse Amelia and drive but they managed it. Lily was carting a truck full of things. She had loads of clothes to pass on to Caitlin that Amelia has …
