Ahhhhhhh.

My pellets are taking a beating, I buy 5 tons in the summer to offset electric base board heat, actually I turn all of the base board down to 50. I have about a ton left.. and hear like many other alternate heat sources are also in short supply. My home has been typically between 58 and 65 degrees all winter.... except on sunny days.

As an outside observer I've noticed that you NA Members put great stock in a rodent's shadow to determine your winter weather patterns.

Apparently these woodchucks have doomed you to 6 more weeks of winter, therefore;

Sacrifice ALL ground-squirrels and your dilemma should be solved, simple!

Woke up to a mix of freezing rain and some sort of granular mix. Snow later. Whoopie.

I picked the last week of January to have my knee replacement operation!
So I spent the month of February depending on others to plow the snow and bring in the fire wood.
Prior to going to the hospital I had stacked two cords of wood on the front porch and last week we had to bring more wood over.

Times they are a changing and this morning When I got up it was 31 degrees.
We're getting more snow today, but the heaviest will be south of us.
We haven't had the deep cold, just constantly close to zero with high winds.
Looking forward to smelling the roses.....

On the plus side of this, daylight savings time snuck up on us. It starts this coming weekend, March 9th. So when it does warm up we can hit the ground running.
