Hello, my name is M _ and I’m a wood-aholic. I have given up buying clothes, shoes, food and other necessities of life so that I can buy more wood. My wood addiction comes from the need to have the latest and greatest version of what Mother Nature has created in the form of a tree or other woody growth. I can’t help myself, as I have no control over my spontaneous purchases of unusually grained lumber or exotic burl wood. I wander the streets scanning for fallen limbs and scout the curbside for freshly sawn logs from neighborhood trees. I haul unclaimed logs home in my wheelbarrel or my SUV. I have tons of logs stored in my backdoor patio that are larger than anyone can move. I dream of finding the ultimate figured burlwood that I can cut and shape into a new project. I am a wood-aholic. But I don’t want help! -- "They who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night." ~ Edgar Allan Poe |
