I've realized that cutting, splitting, and stacking wood really encourages me to feel healthier. My job has me sitting at a desk or sitting in a car for most of my day. Dang-it-all, I sit too darn much! Now, processing wood makes me move around a bit. I'll get some heat out of it. I figure it will save me $200 a month on the gas bill and heat my home warmer than I could otherwise afford. And I save $100 bucks a month on the fitness membership, as well as, the hours upon boring hours of running in circles or staring at Fox news while rowing or peddling the time away. Wood gets me outside in the sunshine and breathing fresh air. Definitely cheaper than a fitness membership. Now, I must confess that I've got a few grand into this wood thing already this year alone. But I figure over the next 3-5 years I'll come out ahead. Definitely, cheaper than a fitness membership!!
