My very first selfie!!

Ds showed me how to take a selfie.  So I thought I'd try it out.  I think I forgot to suck my cheeks in though?
There is the fire pit somewhere under that snow where I put the ashes.
 When I took this photo the weather network said with the windchill it was minus 30 oC.
 Plenty of wood still to use, plus there is some around the corner, but can't get to it for the ice.
 I bring in around a dozen logs every day.  Here they are waiting to go inside.
Then here they are all the logs stacked up in front of the fireplace waiting to be used.  I got the other photo enlarged and back and it is also on top of the mantelpiece but no doubt will be moved when the home stager arrives!!

We are getting that artic blast here too! Although the sun is out today, but it is still bone chilling cold. I have to go out later to go to the store as we are expecting another snow storm Saturday night and Sunday...Wish I had your fire place here. Keep warm!

You look like a real Canadian woman in that photo Gill! Snow, firepits, logs on the fire - just missing the Timmy's cup! Oh yeah, the stager probably got rid of it!
