Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
Caitlin and Bree came around last Sunday to celebrate Father's Day with Norman. He is so humble and he hates any sort of attention but a low key pizza and chat is his style. I miss my own Father, who I actually did call Daddy as many southern girls do. He has been gone for …
I continue to be observant of Mother Nature reaching out and contacting me. In my prayers on Monday when I said "Thank you for the birds" a bird sitting on the gate gave a loud squawk. When I put my hands out, palms upwards, and turned towards the West and gave thanks for the rain, …
The weather has led to a lot of people being sick at the moment so I tried to get a flu shot but there are none available. Chichi came to work on Monday and as soon as she spoke I could hear the congestion. Norm popped on a face mask and drove her home. It …

I once asked a teacher 'what is trauma? at what level of pain do you go to in order to know what is important enough to document?' We were creating a 'Descansos' which I have written many posts about, so you can either do a search for the word in the search field on my …
It is so easy to take miraculous things for granted. We often live our lives in a predictable pattern, wake at the same time, eat the same things, watch the same TV shows, shop in the same places, relate to people the same ways and go to bed at the same time. I try so …
This week has been full of chaos and stress and fabulous things, I am like a yoyo. Next week I will be in George visiting Lily, Amelia, Josh and Trevor. I am looking forward to it so much! Last Sunday Norm and I were booked for lunch at Veldt DBE with Wesley, Caitlin and Bree. …
