We are officially at the end of our week without wood heat. Our chimney was once again mostly obstructed by creosote, thanks to our sweep’s lack of coming over when scheduled last May and our lack of following up with him.
But after promising to come yesterday and never showing up, then finally making it over late this morning, and cleaning out a couple bucketfulls of crap, the sweep gave us the go ahead to light ‘er up.
Well, he didn’t actually say that. Apparently, he didn’t actually say anything. Meg said his wife did all the talking for him. Figures.
At least now we can turn off the four space heaters that have been running since Monday morning.
What are you doing? Burning green wood or what? Didn’t I read somewhere else on here about a chimney fire too?
