I suppose that makes for a fairly productive day -- it certainly has worn me out (although that doesn't say much due to my current state of having a cold)...
We built a fire in the fireplace last night (because we haven't for a long time) and must have burned some rotted wood -- which apparently smolders and instead of the smoke going up the chimney, it just drifts... which it did.... and therefore our house smelt rather stinky last night and especially this morning!!
Fortunately the weather was very cooperative today and the temperature got up to 60 degrees F -- and so we had almost all the windows open wide and lots of fresh air blowing through. Now that the worker bees have gone and so has the sunshine and nice temps, I have had to close the windows and light some candles in hopes of dissipating the stench.
