Cutting wood...

I hate it. :P I really do not hate it...but with the rain and cold that we have had I just do not care to do it. We cut a bunch of trees for the new satellite dish and all of them need to be picked up now. I chunked them up a few weeks ago...but I have had no motivation to get them moved, split and stacked. Dang it! So now that it is raining and cold I get to do it. Sweet! To top that off...the tractor battery will not charge so I am having to use the four wheeler. It moves faster...but it just does not have the stability that the tractor does. It is difficult to steer and I have to shift. :P

Hauling wood is not done in vain though...to walk in the house and have it be warm and dry is really a change from the last couple weeks. I have been keeping it fairly cold and with the rain it has been fairly damp. Getting the furnace going, even though it sucks to use it in October, is not such a bad thing. Especially since the gas tank just cost me $325.00 to fill. :( I should start taking donations. ;) Anyone who feels bad about me not buying a house can donate to my fund to help me get into something for next year!

The rain has stopped for now...and it looks like it will keep its distance until Saturday. Finally! Some sun will do everyone here some good. Temps are going to work their way into the mid-40s for highs through the weekend and into next week...lows down in the mid 30s. Yay! You know what mid-30s means...we MIGHT get to see some of the white stuff...at least maybe some thick rain.

Well, enough from me for tonight. 10/13/09 Emmet County ORV ordinance takes effect!

Goodnight from Northern Michigan!
