Rockies Won Wild Card!

After 13 innings of up/down/up, too many times to count, I am exhausted, but happy. In their habitual, win impossibly, style the Rockies beat the Padres by the skin of Matt Holliday's teeth (literally). Now I can relax until Wednesday afternoon, when the Rockies play the Phillies in Philadelphia. Wouldn't it be great if the Rockies won the World Series in the same impossible style? No, I refuse to think about it, it takes too much energy.

My vote:

Matt Holliday - MVP

Troy Tulowitski - Rookie of the Year

Now let's get back to rearranging my quilt studio and stash so I can do more quilting. The sewing and cutting tables had gotten so piled under I couldn't find any place to work. Moved out my old pressed back chair and bought more plastic drawers at WalMart today. The chair couldn't be seen for the In Progress projects piled on it so I decided it could be better used in the dining room.

Hee, hee, I just finished reading the morning paper and had to check on you right away. Woohoo! I wondered if you hung with the Rockies till the wee hours, and clearly you did. Ah, isn't victory sweet?
