Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
I've mentioned how happy Amelia gets when one of us understands what she is trying to say and I thought about that and realised that being understood is what many of us strive for in our lives, even once we are adults. Maybe that is why I relate to Amelia so, the lifelong misunderstanding of …
I keep seeing people posting threads about 'what weird thing did you do as a kid you thought was 'normal' but was absolutely due to neurodiversity'? So many things I have not thought about in years are bubbling up to the surface. I am trying to be like water and imagine my mermaid self , …
I read that "Eleven minutes a day of deep, conscious breathing can get you high, humbled, and halfway to a mystical experience" and who doesn't want that? It grabbed my attention and the rest of the post was pretty humorous. Cutting down the jokes to just the list of items, he gave us some good …

On the night I arrived in George, on our way home from the airport, we thought we saw the North Star. It was reflecting so brightly that I thought it was actually the moon, but it was a full moon that night, not a crescent and I could see Mr Moon on the other side …
Last Saturday Norm and I joined our friends Dave, Julie and Darren for lunch at Chef's Warehouse which is a beautiful restaurant at the Beau Constantia Vineyard. They also have a designated area for wine tasting or just to imbibe in a social setting. We have so many choices of first class restaurants on our …
In typical Cape Town fashion the weather turned last Sunday and the sun made an appearance after days of rain and wind. We took advantage of this and Norm set up a workstation for me by the new succulent garden. https://www.instagram.com/p/CO7151XJ_n5/ We planted the large planter the kids gave me for Mother's day. https://www.instagram.com/p/CO71bZUp_uh/ As …
