Well I'd like to tell you that the Jetplanes had a relaxing weekend snuggling my the fire (we finally figured out how to use our gas fireplace) and watching the Colts beat the Jags...but sadly I cannot.


Friday we high tailed it up to Boise to pick up our final interior doors for the house. The linen closet door the smallest and the most expensive, had to be custom ordered...BOO. The pantry door, thank goodness, was stock. We also purchased the baseboards for the living room, family room, kitchen, and hallway. We purchased contractor packs, they aren't the glamorously tall and detailed baseboards we originally wanted but hey...things add up so somethings are sacrificed. I am loving my new appliances though:)


After that we met up with a couple from our squadron and ate all you can eat sushi at a new sushi place. Since they just opened (without a liquor license yet) we headed over to Cheesecake factory for drinks and of course desert, yeah I'm a fat ass so what.



Saturday morning bright and early we got up and hung the doors. Be hold all new doors (minus the closet doors on the side those are for the laundry area and our utility room)We then headed back up to Boise to enjoy the NIU v Fresno State Bowl game. Mr Jetplane is an NIU alum and I got us 1/2 off tickets on Groupon. Mr had a couple of frat brothers in town as well so we partied it up at the NIU alum reception and then had great seats for the game. We got to watch NIU beat up on Fresno, much to the surprise and anger of a couple Boise State fans that were chatting it up around us. We were rolling deep with some Chicago Southsiders so I'm not sure they knew what could happen if they kept running their mouths.... oh well.



We had a great time. So much fun that we ended up skipping our squadron Holiday party.

After the win we got on the field and them BAM it started crazy snowing!!! It was awesome!


Sunday morning I awoke to the sound of rushing water and then drip, drip, drip. Our roof is leaking...our NEW ROOF. The NEW ROOF that we had put on in order for us to purchase the house. It was dropping water right by Milo's bed and he was freaked out and lil pissed off. Needless to say, we are not happy and the roofer was out here a couple of months ago to fix the problem...obviously its not fixed....mmmm.



Mr decided to open up the ceiling...oh joy! I refused to sleep in there last night so we're kickin it in the guest bedroom. Thank God our houseguest left on Thursday...I washed the sheets and threw away the pillows he'd been sleepin on. Mr didn't want to sleep on them either.



Anyway - the rest of yesterday Mr. measured and cut all the baseboards. (Yeah trim...we've lived without since August). We'll start installing tonight. We installed the chair rail for the kitchen bead board yesterday. Its crazy how different the house is looking. Its been a lot of work, and we still have more to go, but its really been a rewarding experience seeing the changes the house is making.


Next on the list - PAINTING, we have more coats of white for the stairway, trim, bead board, new doors, and then onto the kitchen cabinets....


We are trying to get as much done as possible before Mr deploys in 2011. Its coming up and no matter what I can't wish it away. When he gets back from the desert we will be totally renovating the 2 bathrooms, so that's something to keep my occupied while he's off doing God knows what over there :)

Well football season is almost upon us and the Jetplanes are always excited. We have confirmed our NFL Ticket on Direct TV, made sure the surround sound is set up, we've invited some of our friends to make it a Sunday ritual, and I've been on the lookout for new football gear. And by football gear I mean COLTS gear.


Yeah that's right, if you didn't know already I'm a COLTS fan. I already expressed my disbelief and disgust at Victoria's Secret and their new NFL line. I mean come on VS, no Colts love, no Saints love...ummm what the hell.


But no fear my dear friends... Last season I was happy to find that Old Navy had quite a selection of NFL gear. Not all of it was in women sizes but you could easily find it in Mens or children's. This year is no different. Check it out here . I will definitely be ordering this tshirt and the sweatshirt that goes along with it.

No fear Pink Sass Old Navy is showing your boys some love....

Who's got 2 thumbs and ready to spend her Sundays watching football and drinking beer....THIS GIRL!!!

GO COLTS!!

p.s. Gap Give Get Promo is running now so your purchases are 30% off...

Go COLTS!!!

Its a big weekend at the Jetplanes household. Colts in the Superbowl baby...Colts in the Superbowl.

Hopefully the bad weather holds off, the Jetplanes are hosting a Superbowl party. Turns out Mr. Jetplane invited his whole class over for the party, depending on the flight schedule for Monday morning, we might have quite a showing.

Happy Pug Friday everyone....

GO COLTS!!

Holla!!

P.S. Jetplanes moved from Indy to Pensacola the year the Colts beat the Bears in the Superbowl in Miami....Jetplanes moved again (in August) from Pensacola to North Carolina and the Colts are again in the Superbowl in Miami.... do you see a trend here???

Happy Pug Friday to you all...

This weekend is all about football . Looks like we're going to be having a few people over to watch the games....

Go COLTS!!!

See the lil pug is a pilot?

This is a poster which comes from www.obeythepurebreed.com which is a hilarious site full of great Pug and other breed paraphernalia. Be sure to check it out, whether your a pug lover or not, its funny and they sell great gifts for your pug or any fellow pug lovers out there.

Happy Pug Friday!

Someone developed a major sinus headache last night and took medicine during the beginning of the Colts/Patriots game. By halftime I was in a drug induced coma and could hardly keep my eyes open... which totally pissed me off. This was the "game of the decade", to quote NBC.


If you know anything about me...I am a HUGE COLTS fan and a HUGE Hater of all things associated with New England...that obviously includes Bill B and even the hottie Tom Brady. As a True Blue Colts fan... I refuse to like him, no matter how sexy he may look at the cover of Details, GQ, or Esquire.... REFUSE!!!



Mr. Jetplane also had to get up at 5am for a test this morning so we decided after half time to watch the rest of the game in bed. Well I passed out in no time and Mr. went to sleep at the end of the 3rd quarter.


When he left this morning, he came in to give me another kiss and said.."Colts won 35 -34!" I sat up... you are f'in kidding me... and we missed it... damn it....


Well fear not..I have watched Sports Center and I am still wearing my Colts shirt that I fell asleep in... GO COLTS!!!

Final thought... going for it on 4th and 2 at your own 28??? Thank you Bill!

Last Sunday was the start of the NFL football season and that's a BIG deal at the Jetplanes household. We are HUGE Colts fans. Mr. Jetplane also likes the Bears and is still a closet 49ers fan.

Being the wonderful wife I am, I got he NFL Ticket on Direct TV.

And thanks for all your kind words about the home improvement and meeting new people post, I'm glad I'm not the only one. I'll post more about that later. The dinner was a success...

Photo found here...

1. I'm pretty sure I'm getting sick.
2. Had a great day shopping will blog about that later.
3. I cried while Jennifer Hudson was singing the National Anthem. That poor girl, I can't imagine the pain she's going through, such strength and poise.
4. I don't want to go to work tomorrow, but its a 4 day week for me. Which is great, but it also means that I have ALOT of work to do in 4 days.
5. Mr. Jetplane may come home for V-day weekend. Cross your fingers...
6. My step grandmother is in the hospital, I spoke with her today, she sounded very tired. Keep her in your prayers.
7. Please don't forget to enter my giveaway its end soon. I am on my 3rd Sookie Stackhouse book, its a great series.
8. I don't like Matt Leinart and find it funny that he's 2nd string. I love Kurt Warner.
9. The Telefora commercial was hilarious. The flowers told her no one wanted to see her naked... OMG that was funny.

10. My heart goes out to GRITS. I've been there and its really hard. Mr. Jetplane dumped me after he was accepted into the Air Force and got his orders for Officer Training School (OTS). He and some of his friends/family, thought that we wouldn't last and that I'd resent him if we stayed together. I knew they were wrong and had to get him back. Mr. Jetplane is a stubborn man and I knew that he'd never admit he made a mistake. He thought what he was doing was the best thing for me.

They were all wrong and can kiss my ass....

Well, since the Colts aren't playing and Mr. Jetplane is MIA....

1. I am making my yummy Italian Beef in the crock pot.
2. Heading to the outlet mall with a friend from work.

Quite a good, little Sunday if you ask me. We're going to get there when it opens, but with the Super Bowl today, hopefully no one will be there.

The spending fast is over for the weekend. I drop a little, okay a lot of, money at Target yesterday and now I've told myself that I can only go to BR, JCrew, Nine West, Brooks Brothers, Coach, Polo, and that's it.... wow that's alot.

I will be good.... I will be good...

That my beloved Colts lost last night. I hate the freaking Chargers and I can stand Phillip Rivers. Sorry to any Charger lovers, but I think Rivers is a giant a-hole.

But for my undying love of the Colts I have posted some of the hilarious Peyton Manning ads. Enjoy!

NFL Playoffs start today. Yeah Baby! Mrs. Jetplane has on her game day outfit and is ready to view the game on her 55" television. Mr. Jetplane and I will be on speaker phone for most of the game. I stopped by the store picked up a pizza to make and I have a 1/2 bottle of bubbly to finish. I may be the only person watching football and drinking champagne. Oh well.

Go COLTS!
