howdy back Melinda! I'm sorry I mis-stated the name of that stats outfit, it's steem-data not steem stats. Anyway I just started receiving daily reports from them for some reason and when I look on the stats for the comments each day I'm usually the only human on there in with all the bots but yesterday your name was there too a few down from mine! lol. so we're keeping up with the bots! lol. yay!

As far as the little wood burning stove I think it would be for when you had company and then in case of a big disaster or outtages, an emergency situation in other words. Because I agree, otherwise it would be too much of a hassle. Do you have a basement and maybe could store some wood down there or move it or have it moved onto the deck in the winter in case of something serious? Just thinking outloud.

One of the things about Texas is we don't have to worry about that too much although the last 2 years it got down to 13 and 14 degrees which was highly unusual and alot of people had their water lines freeze and burst. We had to buy electric heaters because our heat pumps didn't warm the house but out here in the country everyone has big propane tanks for supplemental heat and now we know why!

Great to be keeping up with the Bots! I followed that account, it would be a good way to help keep track of how you're doing each day. Are you always on the list? I didn't go back to look.

Good thoughts about the stove, it would not have to be used everyday. I will have to look around and see who does wood stove installations in the area. I think I would like that. My daughter-in-law is a mosaic artist and over Thanksgiving she was sizing up my fireplace and talking about how much fun it would be to reface the tiles that are on there with Mosaic artwork. I would love that. Maybe I could tie the entire project together.

I do not have a basement. Although there is a concrete crawl space underneath the entire house, it is only 4 ft tall, because of my proximity to the river. It is accessed through a hole cut in the floor in the electrical closet in the garage. No stairs, so it would not be practical for storing much of anything because of the difficulty in getting it up and down.
