This is what I have done in the last 2 1/2 days. Still have some left to stack just to soar to do it.....................................

But you will be glad when the cold wind starts blowing and you stay warm while you are quilting.

Just think you will be all cozy this winter when you quilt! :wink:

I think you'll be needing that wood soon, so I'm glad you have it ready to use. You can quilt when the snow falls and you can't work outside anymore.

FIRE!!!! I hear ya on being sore, but it's soooo so nice to have firewood. Can't afford it right now so I'm scrounging up bits of leftover scrap lumber in hopes of having a fire or two this winter. :)

For some reason, a vision of an ant and grasshopper came rushing thru my head :thumbup:

Oh I remember those days......hang in there.

That is a giant stack of wood. Wish I has that much cut, split and stacked.
Don't over do it. Take a few days off, maybe someone else with stack the rest of it.

I heat with wood no other form of heat. This will last me about a month and half maybe a little longer if the wind isn't to bad.

Don't you love your woodburner? My son has one and his house is always so nice and toasty. Unlike mine where you can see your breath in the winter.

my goodness, i've been cutting limbs but not that much!!!

WOW - what a lot of work and you are such a "neat stacker"!!! Is that an outdoor wood furnace?

You have been busy! Great looking stack!

Great accomplishment. The soreness will pass and the pleasure you feel when this is completed will be immeasurable. Winter in your home will be toasty and warm due to your great effort. Kudos. Thanks for sharing the great pics.

Very impressive...stacked wood always looks so cozy to me.

OMGoodness I remember when I had to do this, I think God everyday I don't have to do it anymore.

But it is so nice that you have a place to burn it.

We also heat with wood. Just can't seem to get warm enough with other types of heat. Well my husband can't - I'm always warm - even wear short sleeves most of winter. lol

Just think of all the quilting you can do this winter in your nice warm house.

Looking good. We don't get firewood anymore - no truck. To say nothing about the emerald ash borer which has cause a real problem for dealers to bring wood in.

Ahhhhhh, so glad I live in the south! We get cold, but not THAT cold! You surely did stack it pretty! But oh, I know you are tired! Blessings!

I look forward to helping DH with wood. It's great exercise. I also enjoy the heat our wood stove puts out. Great for drying clothes, keeping warm, and cooking on.

Looks like lots of hard work but a what a feeling of accomplishment!!! My hubby's parents had a woodburning stove when I first met him and I remember their house was nice and toasty in the winter.

Looks like you live in the country - nice!

Meg

Ditto!

This stack is only a six week supply? Oh, my, you have more back work to do? It should be cozy this winter when you are ready to quilt.

Whew!!! You'll be so happy to have that pretty soon, but it is a ton of work!

Love your stacking project. Neat stacking, sort of looks like a quilt design to me. We used to cut, split and stack about 20 cords of wood a year before I bought a pellet stove.

Oh your aching back. Beautiful stacking, I must say!

Our firewood was just delivered last week, so we are ready. Nothing like a nice fire in the fireplace!

love the wood heat, it is just oh so nice and cozy!!! My dh is going to install a similar stove soon, can't wait!! we have a heatalator now but it does not do as well as this will do!! congrats on your start of wood, I would get a man to do this for me, I am such a wimp when it comes to that type of work!! lol

My back hurts from just looking at that stack. It will be worth it when the snow falls!!!

Holy cow - you did a very tidy job. Our pile sure doesn't look like that!

What's that old saying, wood heat keeps you 3 times warm, once when you cut it, once when you split and stack it and once when it burns.

That's a lotta wood!

WOW - Kudos to you!

Looks like a professional job. Years ago my husband cut
our wood and I would help run it through the splitter. It is work, but since I did office type work, I kinda enjoyed
working outside. At least you can see the result of your hard work.

Month and a half? No wonder we don't use our fireplace. Only use Duraflame in it anyway, during the Holidays. Too pricey. And can't have wood heat the whole house due to asthma. But I sure love the hot heat, the smell, the warm cozy cuddling watching a movie next to the fireplace.
Putting off sewing to get this done will be hugely rewarded when the cold starts. Sore muscles and all.

Gotta love all that "warm for the winter" wood! Just think of all the calories you are burning compared to how few get burned when seated at the sewing machine. Just need to find that silver lining :D

whew that is hard work, and yea, it goes fast when the wind blows or the temperature drops.
Sorry I can't help you except in spirit.

Nothing like being prepared! I remember those days of cutting, splitting and stacking.....ouch! Love the warmth on a cold winter day though!
