You got the best heat there is. We have a wood/coal stove also but I ain't hooked it up yet. The house really doesn't have any room for it.
That's all I use for heating this house, apart from letting DS put the little fan heater in his bedroom for a bit in the evenings. I love the wood stove's heat and when I load it with coal, you can't stand near it for too long, you'll burn yourself.

I keep gas for the generator at all times, but it's wood heat here. House was built in 1900.

There is a space heater in the bathroom because I hate stepping out of the shower into cold.

It's 50 and drizzle. This is actually pretty normal weather for this time of year. It's been a weirdly dry year. We're so far behind normal in rain it isn't funny

We had a tiny bit of sleet yesterday and rain most of the day, gosh it bucketed down at one point. Today is dry, but overcast and 12C (53F) :idunno

15° F last night. It's clear skies right now so cold. Once our normal clouds come back, we should be just above freezing.

Zone 6B or 7 can't decide
Our refrigerator went out yesterday. We put stuff we wanted to save in the back of my wife's CRV. Got down to 22 last night. I told my wife I think this the first time we used a car as a refrigerator :lol:. It's 36 right now and I'm waiting for the delivery guys to bring a new refrigerator.
