Lauras 25, 30.

- I've had a rough couple of days: insomnia, distraction, lack of productivity. There were some good things too, and I'm going to try to hold on to those. Extricate them from the moment. As for the rest, I will seal it up in a bubble running from Monday afternoon until about two hours ago, and move forward unimpeded.

- The answer to yesterday's QotD is Justin Timberlake, Salt-n-Pepper, and Joe Cocker. With a special preference for Joe Coker. No, this is not a joke.

- ALMANAC SAYS -
My husband and I live in Virginia about one hour from the North Carolina border. We are in the process of buying the house we are now renting. Someone who lived in the house before us planted bamboo in the backyard. The bamboo is taking over the yard and the fields beside and behind it. We want to cut it back, but we don't want to burn it if we can find something else to do with it. Do you have any ideas?
