Well, since I am stuck inside and the wife duly reported this crudy morning that the ground conditions are ankle deep mud down at my fire wood junkyard I figured today would be just as good as any other day to restart the
Official Firewood Burners #####ers and Whiners thread.
So I am still waiting for Obama to send the golden letter revoking my Social Security, I ran out of beer weeks ago UGHH!!, and I have no ambition to purchase any grog let alone cheap grog, My wood truck needs $400.00 of work at a dealership three hours away and I dont have the funds yet, I dont have the snow tires pulled off the old wood mule and put on the new truck, The snow chains are buried in the garage, the garage is not empty enough to park the tractor and snow blower, Its one of those days when a six pack of Heineken, a pack of Benson and Hedges and a well done T bone with mushrooms and onions would fit nicely, My allergist took blood yesterday figuring he was still going to stick me with anti venom shots and milk Medicare into the foreseable future for $1750.00 per month as the 400 anti venom shots over the last seven years have only given me lifetime immunity against honey bee stings and given me more medical woes, I am in the doughnut hole in more ways than one, my Social Security C.O.L.A., was a help, YA THINK!!!!, My Stihl 250C keeps threatening to sneak out at night to wake up the Homelite 250, steal all the beer out of the Timberwolfs Man cave fridge and cut down all the pines and willow trees for something to do as I have not been able to work safely in the rain and mud, I hate cleaning mud out of the lug soles of my Red Wing work boots and my Lacrosse winter boots, I hate pulling the felt liners out of my Lacrosse Boots as they are a BIATCH to reinstall, I dont have enough bagged sand for the driveway and paths for the winter,I still have to finish installing my hold down D rings and Anchor plates in the dump trailer, I had to buy plate steel using 6 by 6 by 1/4 plates to mount the D rings to as the dump body floor channel iron or sidewalls are to thin to mount them directly, thank you very much MAXUM, I have to clear up all the empty Schlitz beer cans and greasy Pizza boxes from around the Timberwolfs cave to be able to safely work when the time comes HA!, if it ever dries enough, I have to break the Timberwolf of using the log lift with compressed air to launch the empty beer cans on to my tin roof while its burning a bonfire in the back yard stinking up the neighborhood with green wood,
my new pipe wood racks from TSC are not even straight and level, my two wheel wheel barrow is due for a dual flat tire episode even with the slime, the old wheel horse is about to die as the Peerless transmission did not sound at all healthy the other day while I was letting it warm up, The John Deere complained like it was getting a colonoscopy without a mild sedative while working the other day, The mail has just arrived with my qouta of junk mail, The bagged coal I have stored out back is escaping from the cheap polyester bags it is stored in even though I have it under a tarp!!, I have one one of firewood to bring down yet to dump off for the next year, the dump trailer is in the way of moving the load of topsoil to make room for the next 30 cords, I have to move the loading ramp for the trailer where I can get to it later without getting stuck, I still have to remove the mower deck, mount the plow, chains and wheel wieghts on the wheel horse, I have to remove the lawn mower deck from the John Deere and install the snow blower rear suit case weights and weight frame, I have fire up the Snow Pups to be sure that they are ready for the winter, I am looking forward to a monster kerosene budget payment from Suburban Propane or Shoud f I say Suburban PROFANE!!!!!!!!, which is much more appropriate, I look forward to Suburban Propane telling me I need another oil burner when they told me the first Reillo Burner I bought thirty years ago was outdated and parts were unavailable, Pinochios nose grew 30 feet when that happened the first time and another 60 feet when I was told that the second burner was defective and parts were no longer available, and I look forward changing suppliers when I have the money to install a powered exhaust stack for my oil burner to remove it from my 16 foot chimney as it is no longer legal to have a wood burning appliance sharing a chimney with a fossil fuel burning appliance per the national plumbing code, I still shake my head thinking about this when I could have changed the stack with and exhauster when I was still employed IF THEY(SUBURBAN PROFANE) HAD SIMPLY TOLD ME I was out of compliance with the Plumbing Code or if my idiot insurer had sent me a notice regarding my wood burner which they have known about since 1982 and yet my problems are minor compared to other folks so I should be happy.:msp_rolleyes:

harvesting in my woodlands: firewood to heat the house ( 99.44% wood heated ), the shop, the hot tub, some neighbors; $$$$ from pulp and sawlogs for drink; and....the exceptional warmth and romance of the 2 stoves. What now: time to begin cutting for next winter's heat...when the ground freezes hard.
