21 again...

Tuesday's ride home was uneventful...the plan was to get home in time to drive to the PO facility in Mitchell to pick up a package...would you believe they shut the door right on 6pm as another person and I were less than 15m from getting in?! bah...

Wednesday

nice quick ride to the gym (sub 20min)...

Day 1's program - upped bench press slightly (by 2.5kg but still not up to pre-shoulder injury level) as well as tricep pressdown with bar (by 4kg)...

the temp was quite pleasant on the ride to work...

mum & dad picked me up from work to go out to Willow Park Nursery to select some plants to go on my balcony...ended up with three different coloured petunias and three succulents (Echeveria Black Prince, Echeveria Blue Lotus and Sedum Autumn Joy)....should look good when planted...

this time left work early to ride via the PO facility...nice long queue when I got there but it only took 8mins...

then it was a quick dash to Magnet Mart to return some balcony railing pots which didn't quite fit (I have nice new larger versions which do - photos will be added when plants in and settled)...their computer's crashed but we got through in the end after 6pm...

home to shower and change, drive via mum & dad's to pick up the plants then off to the Vietnam Village Inn in Page for the latest speedygeese dinner...20 attendees in all, great food and good fun!

today

21 again!

lots of birthday wishes passed on via phone (mum & dad singing!), text, facebook and email...

did my usual run at lunch but in reverse...through Acton to the lake then under Commonwealth Bridge around Central Basin then around Lennox Gardens, back over Commonwealth Bridge and back to work...the weather was a nice contrast to Tuesday!

crossed paths with Janene, Dave B and Kerrie B...
