And in breaking news….

I finally finished my cat needlepoint! Daughter #1 reminds me that I started it when she was in high school, i.e. over 10 years ago. Nevertheless, I am proud of myself for completing the project. Better late than never, right?
Also, in case you weren’t paying attention, the hometown team clinched the Central Division. We have the best record in baseball!

And, yes, HE’S our manager, so it’s a win/win.
Today is also the 52nd anniversary of Roger Maris of the New York Yankees hitting his 61st home run of the season, breaking the record Babe Ruth set in 1927. How time does fly!
Roger Maris ended his career in St. Louis, playing his final two seasons with the Cardinals, helping to win the 1967 and 1968 pennants. He was outstanding in the 1967 World Series, hitting .385 with one home run and seven RBIs. It was the best performance of his seven career World Series.
Go, Cards!

Gosh, I’m so out of it, I didn’t even know that the Cards were doing well. Your cat pillow is fabulous!!!
The playoffs start on Thursday, so think positive thoughts about the Redbirds!
AWESOME pillow! I *love* it. And I’m so happy about the Cards, though I haven’t been following as well as I usually do…
Well, October is the only month I really ever get excited about baseball!
