Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
The last few weeks have been riddled with chaos and filled with both natural and unnatural disasters both near and far. Terrorism and the alt-right hate groups kicked off on Saturday the 21st in my home country, the USA. There was an alt-right rally in Charlottesville Virginia which resulted in a battle between the good guys …
On Monday morning I woke early and when I checked my phone I saw a message from a friend telling me that our street was closed due to chaos from the riots. A fire had been started in the middle of the only street out of our suburb and a barricade put up. I then …
This was our last 4 day week for a while. The week went quickly but I suspect next week will drag. The drought continues in Cape Town. I can't embed this video but click HERE to watch recent footage of the dams. It is so frightening. More so that the government seems to be doing nothing about …
I leave for work in the morning at approximately 630am. Now that it is heading into colder weather it is still dark out when I leave. I use a flashlight to get downstairs to avoid waking everyone up. But then when I get onto the roads I struggle with the glare from oncoming lights from …
A 'normal' two day weekend always seems like you are being short-changed when it occurs after a lovely lush long 4 day weekend of fun. But at least I had a nice one even if it was a short run. We only have a 3 day work week again this week as Thursday & next Monday …
The week in LaLaLand is over. No harm, possibly a few fouls. I did try, and mostly succeeded, in keeping my anxiety under control. I'm aware that the new alt-right who are in charge of the White House are hitting hard and heavy early with the hopes of protest fatigue setting in and the normalization …
Considering that this was a 4 day week it has felt like the longest week all year! On Wednesday evening it was just me and Norm at home so we decided to go to Pescarne for dinner as we had seen on their Facebook page that there was a new owner. We thought the changes they made to the …
This week has rattled past, I've been so busy. Norm has his board still here from the UK and we have seen very little of him, he warned me he would be unavailable this week so I planned accordingly. Tuesday I went to see my myosteopath who worked out the pain I've been having in …
My friend Retha and I normally attend the Cape Town Girl Geek Dinners but this month we decided to give it a miss and instead go for cocktails and dim sum at Kitima which is a fab venue. We booked seats in the bar and proceeded to sample the cocktail menu. we ordered the starter …
The last week or so has been challenging. I seesaw between normality and sadness. But one has to keep on keeping on...it is the nature of life. My friends rallied round while Norman was away. Retha came and collected me on my 1st night alone and we went to the harbour for take out sushi …
