    Start the new job tomorrow. Will be kind of slow as the guy that worked it before kind of messed things up but I'm NFI certified and have a good following of people in a small community of people I grew up in. Time to build it and make it grow! The company had a good strong customer base for a while until it got sold. The lady that bought it (who is a very cool person) hired said guy and gave him a shot and he screwed it all up so it's my time to shine. This could turn into a good thing.

    Sweeping chimneys, doing installs and repairing gas, pellet and wood stoves. It's what I do I guess.

    I'm stoked, my first official job/service call is to fix a Quadrafire pellet stove which I'm pretty damm good at.. also picking up my leaf blower tomorrow.

    I rather enjoy that sleeping temp. But I don't have a vote so its normally warmer than I like 68ish. Maybe I should have an intentional moment :whistle:God knows I have had plenty of accidental ones.....
