Really, really good to hear youz are settling in.
there will always be stuff that worked in one house but not in the next.
The gov't is giving rebates on wood and pellet stoves and probably
inserts. anything efficient. SO go for the best deal. We have a never
ending supply of wood so it's obvious for us. Pellet stoves are very
efficient and burn the pellets slow. Just be sure to get one that is
easy to light and heats the whole house. Living 'out there' you are not
a high priority to get the power back on when storms or yahoos hit poles
and knock it out.
but happy to hear you haved turned a really big corner. Now we'll need
an address to send those cards to????

How YA-AWL doin, LOL
Well, we finally made it, and even thought the cable guy was here
till 7;00 last night, the PC came on line just now. Did I mention how
slow things happen here. LOL.
There was no surprises at the closing, it took 10 minutes and it all
was done. They seamed like nice people, and were over whelmed will
their packing up. I was nervous because there was still a good amount
of stuff here at the walk through. They left us a few logs in the
fireplace. Nice.
Well, we got all our stuff from the pod in the house before the
storm hit, and they removed the pod just before the first snow flake
fell. We have 4-5 inches here, and it's been fun watching cars
slipping past our place. D'OH. I guess I'm going to be clearing the
snow from the driveway today, as a plow buried us at the street end.
We have a large car port that kept the car clean, and dry. We have
about 80-90ft of driveway.
Dorothy, and I threw out a lot of stuff during packing to keep
from having to ship stuff only to throw it out later. Well, as we are
unpacking we are coming across stuff that we have no idea where to put
it. ???? This is all ending up in the basement.
We have used the fire place the last two nights and it was
great. He left some good burn wood and since we don't have a kitchen
table yet we have been eating on unopened boxes in front of the fire.
High cool factor. Taking it all in, very different life style from our
past, so far it's new and exciting.
I would like to install a fireplace insert soooo ....... if
anyone has advice on that topic ..........
I promise to send some photos when I get the chance so hang in
there, I just have other things to get done first.
Frank & Dorothy, NC
