    DH had a question. I may or may not be correct in paraphrasing what he said. LOL He knows how to run duct work from the basement to run cool air, but he's stumped with our woodstove since we've never had one personally before. When this stove gets cooking, it's easily 100+ degrees in the living...

    EE/Aracauna/Ameraucana Question...

    I should be happy, but I'm not.

    Back history here. My SIL and I were pregnant together in 2006 and DH's whole side of the family treated us like dirt for 'stealing the light' from SIL & BIL with their first kid.
