Yesterday was hell. The garage door wouldn’t open. Needed a new motor. Then the electrician came and set up the solar battery to the iPad so I can read how much power I’m using and making. The solar electrician inadvertently switched off power to the garage door and I couldn’t shut it. This is 7 pm. After lots of text messages all fixed. Foot note, I’m amazed at how much passive energy I’m using over night.

Bank to get Xmas money. Zoom meeting with dietitian and others, hair trim. The last time she blow dried my hair and I looked like Dolly Parton.

Marina, you always cook really interesting food. Think I could make miso Almonds. Will have a go.
Cookie, they look nice.
Bit cooked out after yesterday lunch. I’m making lamb and veggie soup out of the bone from the 1/2 leg. That will do for a couple of days.

Judy, I’ll be interested to know how that tastes.
I’m having 2 zucchini falafels with salad for dinner.

Tai Chi then last Bookclub for the year. We had a lovely Xmas lunch and everyone was there. I won a gingerbread Xmas tree.
I’m waiting for the Solar man to come and put the programme on my I
Pad , so I can see how much electricity I’m making , how much I’m using and how much in the battery.

Ha, when the inspector came to say ok it can be switched on, the electricians teased him by saying I made Sausage Rolls for them. I had to give him a pot of jam as consolation prize.
Today I made Zucchini falafels for visitors for lunch tomorrow. I’m baking a 1/2 leg of lamb and one visitor doesn’t eat red meat. I’ve also prepared Miso Eggplant. This is really yummy. Will put recipe up when I have a moment.
Bit mad this week, Im doing lunch tomorrow, lunch on Saturday and lunch on Sunday. Probably have a nervous breakdown on Monday.

I had solar panels put on the roof last year. They produce lots of power, even on overcast days. The Government has offered a substantial rebate for a battery. The battery stores excess power, to use overnight or if the power goes off. I’m able to see, on the iPad how much I’m producing and how much i use.
Cookie, my DS has just updated his inverter and added more panels . He now doesn’t pay for any electricity and even covers the charge to bring power to the property through the excess that he sells to the grid. Yesterday I had 2 lots of visitors for tea and cake. The second visitor was interested in my recipe for Xmas Puds so we did a taste test. I didn’t need any Dinner.

Well done Marina. A real challenge.
Today the Solar battery is being installed. I was having blood removed at the Pathologists when they rang. I’ve made them turkey Sausage rolls for Morning Tea. Also found some Hot X Buns in freezer.
