Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
This has been such a bizarre week with such extremes. On Wednesday my friend Sam and her husband Neal arrived much to the delight of both Norm and I who adore her to bits. Sam is usually the other person co-starring in most of my great stories. We met when we worked together at British …
Last Saturday I had 2 of my girlfriends around for a visit. The weather had been fine all week, but then on Sunday we woke to rain and overcast skies. I decided it was too chilly for normal humans to sit outside (I do not feel the cold). I usually make an effort if entertaining …
The difference in my life between last weekend and this weekend is like night is to day. Last weekend I was surrounded by noisy, energetic, sticky small humans and this weekend I woke up with a Pomeranian on my head. Last Sunday I woke to the usual sounds of the kids shrieking with either laughter …
The rain was constant last weekend. On Sunday morning I lay in bed listening to the pouring rain watching TikTok videos and laughing over posts on threads until after 11am. Norm brought me two rounds of cappuccinos in my favourite cup. Eventually I got up and showered and I packed my suitcase for my flight …
Having four days off of work with no obligations was fabulous. However, before the long weekend ended I once again had excess responsibility foisted on me. By that I mean, Norm's chores. Yes, I am a Princess. Before he went away Norm treated me to a gorgeous lunch at the new Little Fox. When we …
My friends and family often have a laugh about 'Lisa's World' which consists of what I see with my bad vision. On Tuesday I was sitting in the pool and I spotted what looked like a screen of some sort. Was it a camera? A listening device? Who would be interested in what two geriatric …
It has been a busy week! I've swam, walked in the forest, gained a new client, spent time with my daughter and granddaughter, and started learning a new technical tool! For a housebound introvert this is a high achievement. Last weekend was hot but at least the humidity had broken from all of the rain. …
Every year we end up having to buy an extra suitcase for all of the Christmas gifts I have ordered for everyone, but this year we had our limit of luggage and weight. We thought we had plenty of space until the last week when we (and by 'we' I mean Norman) finished up packing …
The weather last weekend was hot but the heat was tempered by the insane winds we were having. The wind howled all day Saturday and Sunday. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/UqatqfLkgOc I did not mind as I was having a do nothing weekend. I watched several movies and series. I ate popcorn. I spaced out and it was just …
We had so much fun and a lot of chaos during our visit to George in the Western Cape. I flew down with my daughter Caitlin and her daughter Bree on Friday after work. Bree was so good on the flight, barely made a peep and happily chomped on our Chicken Tikka sandwiches (the best …
