RCR 3 EVER
ArboristSite Guru
We are in SE Mi and if anybody still has some wood to sell we need about 3.5 cords of hardwood, 16"-18" max long. Our fireplace insert can handle wood 5-5.5 inches in diameter, so larger pieces are better than small sticks, although some smaller stuff is needed for small fires. WE stack the dry seasoned wood in our attached garage in large bins, so hopefully the wood is fairly bug less.
WHY: Due to ongoing health problems with back and worsening health problems I am now in wheelchair for any "walking distance" more than 20 feet less if there are no walls for support. My court case was delayed by defense again until end of October. Some doctors are lying about my condition or covering their butts.
Then in April our older Golden Retriever died suddenly and we were taking her to property to get buried. My truck and trailer hit a patch of black ice, did several 360's on freeway, hit several guardrails and was totaled along with trailer. We were okay along with our other dog in the truck. Everything went flying out rear of truck along with the casket and strewn for 100's of yards along embankments when pickup tailgate was ripped off . We did manage to find the missing family member though.
So we have been without any vehicle to transport my wheelchair out of my house since April. I am house bound. The trailer was totaled so our family's ability for wood transport from property to home is also gone. I cannot get into our other vehicle since the car is too low for me to bend to, plus my leg & leg brace does not fit in the car. The wheelchair lift newly installed in truck 2 weeks prior to accident was damaged in accident so it is unusable in any other vehicle.
My new powerchair developed driveline problems so it has been in repair since May, I only had it for a month.
Biggest problem nobody has been able to get to property to work on firewood this year because of lawyer problems and court case so no firewood for this year or next year is cut.
I am worried about heating our house since we can't afford gas bills to heat the house with old furnace. We decided before I got injured that we would heat house with wood from property instead of replace inefficient old furnace. In hindsight we should have done the furnace.
More problems:
The idiot lawyer just called while typing out this request for wood. he wants to try arbitration to settle, but I still have to renovate the house so I can get wheechair into bathroom, at this time I can't even get my walker in bathroom or my bedroom. I have more problems than just 1 leg paralysisissed-off::mad2:
Sorry for the rant But we do need wood at least for this year and will have to decide what to do in future if we can't get afford a truck with chair lift and cap lift.
