Respect the burden.
Napoleon Bonaparte
I am a beast of burden today. So far moved two 40 pound water bottles (they were starting to freeze), one 40 pound bag of wood pellets, one 16 pound bag of cat food.
Later 200 pounds of wet cat litter need to be moved outside, then move one 40 pound bottle of water to fill cat bowls, fill and move 5 liters of gas to the gen, after moving a 5 gallon can my filling station, move the 80 pound gen outside and start, refill the litter boxes with 40 pounds of wood pellets.
My heart hurts just thinking about it. TG my coffee is ready. That means I need to sit and drink that. I might as well do vitamins and breakfast.
Will the remaining work get done? Needs doing. Solar batteries are low and cloudy skies outside. So the gen needs doing.
The litter boxes are smelly so they need doing. The cats bowls need filling, one was knocked over. Thats a waste of water.
I need to build a wooden frame around the bowl to stop that, oh good another thing to do.
Not to forget -20 in the day weather is coming in two weeks. I need to get some kind of heat going. So far survived without any besides the heat that comes off my one burner stove when I make coffee. Lots of blankets.
Going to be cool in here. I have a propane big buddy heater, since I bought it I discovered it should be not used indoors (cancerous fumes). I have a Diesel heater not hooked up, I also have two electric heaters one runs at 1500 watts, need the gen for that, and a 250 watt heater that will drain the solar batteries fast. The gen is needed to recharge them. When it gets too cold you can’t run the gen.
If I build an insulated box and put the small heater in there it might help a little. Oh good another thing to design and build.
I need a 20 year old clone.
