My husband was gave a new position at his supplier making more than five figures, but there was only one catch.
If he wanted the promotion, the two of us would be forced to transport a thoUSnd miles across the country.
Since I had never lived in the north east before, I encouraged our husband to accept the new job position. I was happy when it was confirmed as well as the two of us started looking for houses to rent while the two of us save money for an eventual property purchase in the future. Even though the two of us were moving to a greater city, there was still a high demand for housing in that area. I didn’t want to live in an older house, but our chances were limited as well as the two of us had a shrinking window of time in which to make a decision. My husband as well as I finally signed a lease as well as moved into our new home. One of the deciding factors for this home is its wood stove that is situated in the kitchen in front of a closed-off fireplace. I heard that years of neglected maintenance made the fireplace a health hazard, so the previous owners bought a wood stove as well as linked the flue to the chimney high above the fireplace mantle to bypass it. If you keep a good supply of firewood, it’s a big benefit for Winter time heating. There’s a good furnace here but the wood stove is a powerhouse on its own. In the worst case scenario of a Winter time power outage, it’s comforting to think that you’ll consistently be warm. You just need a steady supply of firewood if you want on demand wood heating.
