Around Town:  Yesterday my wife and I managed to get the driveway cleaned out.  Took some doing as the wind I guess caused it to drift in quite deep in some spots.  But it got done and we didn’t need any more exercise for the remainder of the day.  Today will stay in looking out being so cold.  Great to have a warm house, along with lots to keep ones mind active.  The main thing in life is to have something to look forward to each morning which we do.  Also one shouldn’t let other folks bother them.  When some one plays on my nerves I just smile and walk away and forget about them, as in reality they don’t mean anything to me.  My grandfather had a good saying which I have used many times throughout my life.  Here it is.  Why should the way I feel be dependent on what you think?  Have to say I have used it many times over the years with good results.  You can reach George Walters at [email protected]

Around Town:  Quiet and not much happening in and around our District.  This morning it looks like our driveway needs to be cleaned once again.  Seems to be the trend these days.  But it does give one the exercise they need to stay fit.  Coming in from the cold the wood heat immediately makes you feel warm all over.  Nothing can beat it when it comes to getting warm. For most of my life I have heated with wood and will continue to do so till, well, lets not think on them lines.  This year I had a whole house humidifier installed onto my wood furnace and what a difference.  One now can keep a smaller fire going as with the humidity in the air you feel just that much warmer.  So often I see homes with out it and folks complaining about being cold.  With all forced air furnaces I would say in this country it is a must.  It is also very healthy for you relieving all kinds of conditions that can irritate a person.  So think on that for a bit and if you can wrangle it through your financial situation get it done.  You will enjoy winter just that much more.  What you safe on your heating fuel will more than pay for it.  Oh just make sure it is installed properly.  Very important.  Tea time here, Chaga is on the menu with a touch of chicory.  Good for what ails a person along with giving one the energy they need to enjoy their day.  You can reach George Walters at [email protected]

Around Town:  Hardly a car or truck moving up and down the highway.  Folks are staying home where it is warm feeding their furnaces and stoves. About all one can do on days like this, as it is just to cold to be outside doing anything.  But it is nice and warm in this old house of ours. New wood furnace we had installed last fall is working like a charm.  Have to say it is one of the best investments I have I made over the years.  So guess that is about it for this morning.  Dress warm if out and about and enjoy your day.  It’s all what you make it.
