    I added a whole house humidifier. It helps.

    15 this morning and still 72 inside. Feels good compared to the 68 and the furnace running a bit. Probably let the stove sit idle as we should get some help from the sun to keep it nice in here. Lots of heat being fed back into the house from my basement cement slab floor from running harder than normal the last week combating below 0 temps. Gonna be burning a little less wood this week::thumbs:

    -8F at 6am. Up to -5 now. I can't wait until later this week when it' supposed to hit high 40s! Need to tear apart my plow pump, it's freezing up. Time to bite the bullet and just do it right.
