This morning, in the light rain, I hauled fifty 40lb bags of pellets from my backyard into my basement. And not a moment too soon! Within an hour, it was downpouring.
Just knowing that they're down there, stacked in a big pile, makes me feel better about winter coming.
I also cleaned and started my stove this morning, since the house dropped to a very damp 60 degrees last night. I added an extra blanket, but I was wishing I had cleaned it sooner. It was so nice to have that heat cranking through the house this morning!
Now I just need to start setting aside money for oil. Ugh!
