I woke up this morning at 6:15 when the alarm went off. Then I fell asleep again for another two hours. Which is unusual for my body.

I'm still feeling tired though, like I didn't get enough sleep.

We have someone coming around to talk to us about home battery options. It's not the 'lasts forever' kind of battery option that I wanted, but I'll take it for the moment just so I can learn a little more about battery options and also get something in place for the moment.

A solar array (probably ground based?) and a back up battery are definitely things we're planning on getting whenever we build our barndo out on the family property. It won't be cheap, but at least that way we can work it into the building loan right up front. And given how often the ranch loses power, it will be worth it just to keep from losing things in fridges and freezers alone.

It's the backup power for blackouts that we want, really.
