Thanks Heather, glad to see Jess out of the hospital. Will she get full use of her arm? I sure hope so.
I had fun giving a solar panel salesman a hard time this week. It was fun, brought back memories of when I was a UAW union negotiator.
I knew the attitude I was going to have with him. When within the first 5 minutes he said in a aggresive manner...... Am I here to sell a solar system to you or not?
That turned on my asshole switch and the fun began. ? I wasn't to aggressive at first because I wanted him to waste time with me. The last words out of his mouth while walking out the door was...... some people just can't afford buying our solar panels. I said with a few choice words, I could pay cash for your f###ing panels. Also added some personal swipes towards him. All in all it was energizing.
Hahahaaa!!! I’m glad you got some purpose out of him! Every now and then, I will have a little fun with a telemarketer like that ?

We don’t really know what to look forward to with Jess at this point.. we have heard some promising possibilities but we also still face the possibility of amputation.. we are just staying positive and taking each day as it comes.

Good afternoon folks! I’m well into a yummy margarita whilst watching Alabama Smoke Texas a&m in football.. My heart is breaking because I think I secretly believed that Texas had something special this year... they even started out strong and had my hopes up.. until almost half time... now I’m all sad.. if I had a beer, well I still wouldnt cry in it ... but I’d think about it ?

Well... I can't see crying in your beer either. That would ruin it ???

The only way; one day at a time.
Sending her so much love.
And you, of course.

Yes, so who has the job of wrenching the Wooden Spork away from the steely grip of Kris @Lokkje ?
Well, I may have moaned, but it has to been the devastatingly huge minuses incurred by our own @CarolM
Never in the history of the Cold Dark Room has such a massive minus total been achieved.
I am flabbergasted.

The batteries are real expensive. They don't even want to talk about them.
I think if they design a better battery that's cheaper. It will be more appealing to purchase.

Yes, the small little solar panel system that I have is tied into four deep cycle marine type batteries. So the panels keep the batteries charged. I then use a DC to AC converter to power 110v things. But yes, storage costs. I think these batteries were $125.00/e@ch. so, not chesp.
