Spruced Bruce
Mon Feb 04 2013

I went a little crazy today in the housecleaning department. Rugs got washed, corners vacuumed, carpets de-dog haired, floors mopped, surfaces dusted, and clutter banished. It all started here ... Oh, it looks innocent enough AFTERWARDS, but the woodbox area WAS a total disaster. Wood bark, wood chips, and wood dust, had crept into everything surrounding our Bruce. It's warm enough today that I could let the fire go out, so I haven't touched the wood yet. As soon as I do, there will be…. detritus everywhere again. But for the moment, it's pristine. I decided to take a picture of it to remember my hard work. Though if I have to choose between tidy or warm, I'll take warm every time. Besides, at a certain point one just has to accept the cold hard fact that life is just….. messy. (Don't we know it.) Indubitably.

    My hearth area is alway a mess so I keep a work bench brush by the wood bin and use the little ash shovel as a dust pan for quick clean-ups as needed....does a better job than the broom most of the time. :)
