We have a Blaze King in the living room and a Hearthstone in the master bedroom in the old house. I usually have 8 cords ready for the winter, and burn a little over 6. The place where I stack it was getting to be a mess, so I did not stack as much this year so that I could clean it up when the pile was gone. That is why I have to cut wood now.
While the spousal unit is younger than me, she is not in as good shape. I put a propane fireplace in the new place. I will put a wood stove in the shop here when I get it built. I was told today that she did not want to spend another winter by herself in the old place, so I had better plan on getting a shop built so we can move. Twice a week I go over there and do the heavy lifting.
At 43 you are the same age as my pickup. I bought it new the day after Thanksgiving in 1979.
