I vote, “Light the fire!”

Today’s affirmation card time!

This card could be useful. LOL

I’m picturing climbing into bed at night and just handing it to Paul. HA! Kidding!

Yesterday, yes, I forgot yesterday. I was ready to go to bed when it hit me that I forgot my blog. That’s as far as it went. LOL I was pooped out, don’t judge! LOL

It’s not a big loss, I didn’t have much to say yesterday anyway. 😋

Today it is freezing cold and SO incredibly windy outside! I turned the thermostat up a tiny bit extra.

Patiently waiting for the day Paul finally decides to start up the wood furnace. Even with the normal furnace running, the house is warm but you still feel chilled.

The wood burning furnace, it warms everything differently and is just SO comfy cozy!

It also heats our water instead of the gas water heater and even a shower is nicer. Really! LOL

I look forward to it EVERY fall.

Today my great-aunt stopped in to buy some chicken eggs and we were talking about it. She said something I found funny but true. 😊

“Burning firewood heats you twice.”

VERY TRUE! The work put into cutting, splitting, and stacking enough firewood for a winter season is NOT light work. LOL

Despite having some woods to get firewood from, actually going out there for it has not been needed. With all the poor Ash trees dying out, procuring firewood has been much easier with people happy to just give it away just so they can clean up their yards or woods.

Between my parents and us, we’ve collected enough firewood for the winter, plus some, for both homes. Hauled it all to the farm to split up later. We’ve been so busy all of our firewood is still there. GAH!

So we have our work cut out for us this fall. Hunting season in full swing AND we still need to haul our wood home and stack it. UGH.

Until Paul decides when we’re going to take care of that….. I’ll make some extra hot tea to sip during my days.

Take care and stay warm (or cool) wherever you’re located. LOL

*Hugs*

Come spill the tea with me!
