wives helping husbands with firewood

My wife and kids (teenagers) are hard workers and always help whenever they are around. My wife actually has a small scar on her head from stacking wood with the kids a few years ago. Moments after she warned the kids to keep their heads up, she bent over to pick up a split and ended up taking another split to the noggin. Wife and son swear it was an accident

 

Its just me to do everything wood related, but this thread definitely has me thinking about future wife.....must love wood!

 

That's handy.

 

Ad in personal section Wife wanted must like firewood cutting own log skidder and many chainsaws send picture of chainsaws and skidder Must also like all wood

 

Have you met scavenger?

 

There's a bit of an age difference there...

But I thought the same thing at first.

 

Whats 23 years.

 

That's a bit. That's a generation.

 

I'm sure if she's on this site she is a great gal, but too much of a gap for me

 

Actually looking for 3 wives, one for cooking, one for cleaning, on for yard work, all three would need to have part time jobs so i could play with cars, firewood, etc...

 

Wife used to be all in with the wood process.. Scavenging, queuing up rounds to split, stacking, loading outdoor boiler.. Then she tweaked something in her back while clearing brush on a scrounge, had her laid up for weeks. Haven't let her touch it in years, up until this fall when she ran the splitter handle for a while and chucked splits into the back of the truck. Now that we have switched to an indoor stove, she has mastered the stove and handles it plenty, especially when I'm away for work.

 

At our place it's 'all hands on deck' when it comes to getting the firewood in.

 

Mine helps stackin if needed, she'll keep the stove running and such. But Firewood chores are usually kept man's bizness in this household.

 

Melissa loves helping ! She is a beast when it comes to stacking! Now if i could get her to swing the 6 pounder....

 

So you're a kept man?

 

My bankaccount says no, my beergut says no and my wife says hell nooo!
Grammar aint nothing but trouble!

 

Mine helps more than I want her too. I enjoy the solitude.

 

The secret is out... making firewood is more fun than housework!

 

I am sure she enjoys a break from our awesome kids.

 

And now that I bought her a splitter and a Stihl 024 super for Christmas. She may be at the log pile more often. Even made her a pallet firewood carrier to make her life easier.
