Today was chilly enough to wear a hoodie sweatshirt indoors and brave the fireplace. Turns out, we don't have a gas fireplace. We do have an ash chute that leads to the basement. We don't have a cover for said chute. That means there's potential for a basement fire. We have an old baking sheet over it now. We do have a new fire extinguisher. We don't have a fireplace screen. We do have one on order. Until it arrives, we're only burning artificial logs. Less popping and sparking. It's a little smokey. We'll have a chimney sweep come and step in time, or something.
For now, I'll enjoy the fire, the wine, and the company.
