The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Well that was easy. Not at all.<\/p>\n

First go outside, so beautiful take a shit ton of pics.<\/p>\n

Then to the wood pile that I already knew was incased in 3 inches of ice. After 20 minutes of more chopping and prying, I managed to free enough wood for this mornings fire.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Through even deeper snow I hauled that load into the garage. I could go no further. I took a reading with my oxy thingy. O2 98 pulse 129. Normally that wouldn’t concern me. Except for the mild chest pains.<\/p>\n

I rested a few minutes in the garage. After that I grabbed all the thin small stuff great for fire starting, then headed into the fireroom to build the fire.<\/p>\n

Cats got fed, but sadly the food bin was empty. Back to the garage.<\/p>\n

I tried to grab one bag but two came out of the box. So what the hell I carried two. Cats got fed again.<\/p>\n

Then I heard a sound I hadn’t heard for awhile. My big stray was outside. Back down to the garage and out the door with some food. I didn’t see him but I saw fresh tracks. I left him some food behind a tilted sheet of plywood. I knew he hid there sometimes.<\/p>\n

On the way back I grabbed this weeks hellboards. Some boards that were incrusted in three inches of ice. I figured they would do better in front of the fire.

\nCats water. I forgot to take yesterdays water up where it was warmer, yup it was frozen solid.<\/p>\n

I needed to go out again, for snow.
\nI got a gigantic bowlful and got that on the woodstove.<\/p>\n

Warmer days were coming, that meant less fires. Less fires, less opportunities to cook woodstove pizza.<\/p>\n

Grabbed the pan, oil, cheese and pizza. It’s on.<\/p>\n

Finished the pizza, had my vitamins, now just resting.<\/p>\n

Trying to decide whether not to start the gen, and play some Witcher 3.<\/p>\n

I probably would. I just needed a little rest first. I realized I had been working a long time this morning. Afternoon it is after 12.<\/p>\n
