Well folks, in the last 1 1/2 hours the temperature has dropped from 33F to 29F! We are on a quick decline toward our projected -2F for overnight tonight. And with a windchill of -10 to -20F, this cold front is going to be nothing nice!! So far, since we started the fire, the furnace has not kicked on! And, for a bit, the house was getting overly warm. We have entered a critical zone on the homestead. We have to keep the fire properly stoked to keep all rooms toasty and the furnace OFF! From here on until morning I need to be watchful, keeping just the right amount of wood in the stove. Here at the homestead we have turned surviving the 2nd Great Depression into a game: Keep bills as low as possible... Have as much fun as possible... Share what we've learned So you can have fun too!!! |
