The Ultimate Incentive natters on. Part 9

Hey Peeps

Cinny - did you do anything nice for your bday yesterday?

Tete - I caught up on your blog, and the bloggers weekend looked amazing! What an amazing place to stay, and the cake(!!!!) :D:D

It's a nice new day today, which is good. I procrastinated alot yesterday so today is going to be better. But before work I am going to paint the closet (yey!) because it can only be done in the daytime. (Well that's my excuse anyway ). I'm still waiting to hear from the worktop lady and get that all sorted out. I found some pics of bike shelves that I'm going to DIY with the old plywood closet shelves. We actually had to cut the shelves out of the closet, as some fool had cut them too big and hammered them right into the wall, taking off huge chunks in the process and splintering all the wood.

I'm excited to see the cupboard, Lara! Hope today is a bit more successful than yesterday - I love a bit of procrastinating at the time, but always kick myself when a deadline slaps me in the face.

It was just a normal day with presents and cake! Had some fresh presents on my desk at work this morning, some flowers and chocolates so it's like it's my birthday all over again

We'll have to have a special "CMD's DEBT FREEE!!" meet Trying to pressure OH into a weekend in Belfast when we're debt free actually - I'm desperate for a little holiday

Sounds lovely Cinny And so does your birthday celebrations. Did you get anything nice? Are you looking forward to Game of Thrones? I can't wait! Walking Dead is nearly over so GoT is just back in time. I didn't know you had debt, just saw your sig there. When are you hoping to be DF?

ETA: Lara I am dying to see your cupboard too

Aw, thanks Shrimpy! Definitely well and truly lost motivation towards the end You're very brave to start at the beginning of my diary, you'll be able to tell me what drivel I was talking back then

Another one here who is very excited to see Lara's cupboard

Glad you had a nice time last night Tete and Birdie, was lovely to see you both, sorry my directions were awful and I was so flustered, I wanted it to be perfect for her, but at the end of the day I should have just been happy that she just loves being the centre of attention.

I was the same for Evie's 1st birthday. It was the first party I had thrown in Ireland and I wanted it to be perfect. I did relax about an hour in and we had a wonderful day. I bet ye did too x

I did once the food was out, trying to do a hot buffet for 30 people from my tiny oven was a nightmare!

Never in the history of ever have pictures of a cupboard been so eagerly anticipated!

Everything WAS perfect Dinah you nut, you didn't seem flustered at all, I'd have been proper sweating and crying doing that lot!

I am getting flashbacks! I had a similar scenario with burgers, a tiny oven and a bbq that didn't want to work

Glad all went well though. Great memories

I am also looking forward to the closet reveal!

I'm definitely in for the meet, just have to double/triple check the calendar, will get my tickets tomorrow as its payday! What time are we thinking roughly? Just in case the cheaper tickets are at set times, I don't want to miss the macaroons! I'm excited and a little scared at the same time

Sounds like the party was great Dinah, bet Grace loved it!
