Had a lovely birthday - walked up to the local vegan cafe for a triple cheese toastie and a chai latte, then got a small loaf of sourdough bread from the little bakery. Then did some more tidying and vacuuming before my aunt and cousin came by with birthday presents consisting of a cat themed tote bag and several bags of wood, then took me to the local Vietnamese restaurant they loved last time where we proceeded to stuff our faces. They're already making plans to come down soonish (from Rezza mind you) so they can go again... ๐คฃ

I love a good birthday story.
A bit late/early to be canvassing opinions, but has anyone been to Frankston Brewhouse? We've done all the local breweries around Mordi and Braeside so thinking of checking it out tomorrow. Cheers.
E: Great place, they've put a lot of effort into the decor and general vibe. It's clean, it's bright, the staff were friendly and knowledgeable about the beers and food. The music volume level was perfect, both in-house and when the solo and his guitar came on at 2pm. Rec.
I'm seriously considering having another rest day from my exercises today. My foot is getting better but still sore and I've been alternating between household chores and resting it, with probably not enough resting to be truly beneficial. I feel pretty guilty though, so I'll probably cave in the afternoon and try to do something. After I hang out another load of washing and unload and load the dishwasher again.
Afternoon nap acheived. Flat cleaned. Cats scared and then treated after nasty vaccuum machine utitlised. Mining and crafting done a little. A nice walk to the beach and surrounds after a solid coffee and another walk to my meeting this evening should see me to 7ks today hopefully. Nothing philosophical today. A bath and a face exoliant later is on the cards. Skin care has become a new pastime. Make up is fun, but it's just unneccessary most of the time.
