Woke cold and in pain. More snow happened during the night. I let the fire go out last night. I thought it would burn it self out and leave the house somewhat warm.<\/p>\n

What really happened is the wood didn’t ignite. Good news is that wood should be drier and easy to light this morning.<\/p>\n

I am limiting the wood to one big log per night. I have eight left.<\/p>\n

About the pain, my back hurt so bad early this morning that it kept me awake.<\/p>\n

The same back that helped me chop my log of the day. While I was picking up that log from outside everybreath I took hurt from the cold.<\/p>\n

Tommorrow night it will get to -30 even colder during the 35 km wind gusts. That makes it impossibly cold.<\/p>\n

It is time to try filling small propane bottles. Then I can try the small heater.<\/p>\n

I may need that. Big bottles outside won’t work, propane doesn’t flow when it gets real cold. Something I learned after investing in propane heat. The little bottles only work for a few hours. I will be waking up a lot this winter.<\/p>\n
