It seemed that a every weekend my husband had to work 3 out of 4 each month!), it would storm. So the kids (4 & 2 1/2) and I would have to bring in wood for the woodstove to supplement our furnace heat in an old house and in case the power would go out. This involved coming home from church, going out to the woodshed and piling split wood on the kids' toboggan, hauling it up to the house, throwing it on the back porch, throwing it into the summer kitchen and then stacking it in the back room. I was so sick that by the time I'd helped get the wood into the house, I had to go lie down or I was going to fall down. so it was left to my kids to stack the wood. Then we could have lunch and I was generally able to make something nice and warm. <br />It never failed. The weekends my husband had off... yep … it was lovely winter weather. Hubby did try to have wood in the house for us but somehow, every Sunday we'd be out fetching wood every Sunday.<br />Fortunately our kids thought this was great fun and they were helping mommy and looking after her and the baby.
