I bought a wood burner, stacking firewood, servicing the furnace, making sure I have plenty of gas for the generator, and kerosene for the stove's, bought a propane cook stove for the basement, canning this year, haven't put a lot up but working on it. Bought new winter pack boots and long johns. Since I have a cabin in NY now, thats a whole new ball game, is not air tight by any means, so I have a lot to still do up there, but from what they say I might not be getting back in there all that often, unless I find a reasonable priced snow mobile.
