Any one else burn wood??

Sorry for so many posts, I am sort of sick, and bored. Any how. Its about 22 degrees outside, and 72 in my house, and I havent turned on the furnace yet this season. Sweet. This is my first season with wood in the house, but for the last three years , I have been heating my 35x 120 shop, primarily with wood. My shop heating bills went from about $3000.00 dollars a season to about 500. And home heat will nearly be free as I have been cutting wood. It does take a little time, and I thought this would be a negative, but I found that I actually like cutting trees, and splitting, stacking wood is kind of theraputic, and a good workout. I put the wood burner in just to help with heating, but it looks as if it will heat the whole house by itself. We have a long ranch style house, The wood burner is all the way at one end, and we have been using fans to move the air, but next year, I will put some ducting in the attic to put the air right into the rear bedrooms. . Even though heating oil is not as pricey as I had anticipated ( 4.02 a gallon last season) this is still great.
