To continue this.
last year I bought 4 TONS(8000lb) of PELLETS and had 20 BAGS(ish) remaining + dropped my oil tank from 1/2 to just under a 1/4th.
I Again BOUGHT 4 TONS and FILLED THE TANK UP TO JUST ABOVE 3/4ths
THE TANK IS BARELY BELOW 3/4TH, AND I HAVE SLIGHTLY OVER 2 TONS(4000LB) OF PELLETS LEFT + LAST YEARS 20(ish) BAGS (1000lb)
THIS IS NOT NORMAL.
I SHOULD BE BURNING MY "COLD DAYS" pellets right now.
I was burning my "NOT SO COLD DAYS" pellets & even that is too much.

I will probably not even bother filling and starting the pellet stove tonight.
I'll let my furnace kick on at 60F if it gets so cold overnight or 64F around 5 am if it gets so cold.
Heck I might not even start the pellet stove tomorrow I may tell the furnace to raise the house temp to 66/67f and then let mother nature do the rest.
This whole week is supposed to be very warm. I dread what could happen to trees and vegetation with multiple 40-degree temp swings.

It's passed my normal bedtime by 47 minutes...
it's 41.4f outside.
it's 68.7f inside.
I'm not going downstairs to start the pellet stove.
I'm going to snuggle my gf in bed & wake up once or twice in the night cussing the dog out for being a bed hog and or to reclaim the blankets the gf has stolen from me.
goodnight #coso
