It's
that time again: I need to order wood. I wish it were more simple and
straightforward, but trying to get ahold of these loggers is like
pulling teeth. They never get back to me, so I'm sort of left
wondering if it's going to happen. Maybe they're just working on
logger time. The problem is, if too much time passes then I'm sort of
left out in the cold, literally. At some point in the year they can't
get any more wood, so I need to reserve some before that happens.
All
I need is to hear from them that they can get me the wood, at least
before next winter, preferably by summer. Then I can rest easy.
Another problem I have, which is not such a bad problem when you get
down to it, is that I know three sources for wood. Do I contact them
all and put in a order, or do them one by one? If I get into a
situation where all three of them are prepared to sell me a truck
load of wood, is that getting myself into trouble?
Boy,
I wonder if I'm the only person who has so much neurosis about
firewood? As my good friend GF used to say, "Did you bring New
York City with you?"
Until
the next time, thanks for reading, and thanks to Aaron Bray for the pic.
