I unplugged for the weekend. We've undergone some stress here at the farm, and well, I would just not be a pleasant person to be around. We are undecided about how to heat this place. I will really miss my wood stove. Although it was work, I will still miss it. I also feel stripped of my self-sufficiency, which I do enjoy. It's a freeing feeling to have less bills and debt. Now, Hubby's co-workers have convinced him that we need to install a furnace and not replace the wood stove. I'll update as he figures it out. My vote is for a new (or used) wood stove.
