the room is finally cleared out and we put 3 freezers in yesterday, putting in 4 more today plus a fridge. We are not currently using all of that, but do when we have market and lots of dough and veggies. We can run an extension cord to the room from where the solar panels are so hopefully all can be hooked up. We are doing 2 different systems so it shouldn't be too big a load on each one
The livingroom is still a mess , so that is today , plus I need to go shopping, out of bananas unless they all have been recalled too, and milk. Next year I am definitely milking a goat or 2. Not going on any trips next year that will mess everything up
 
It's starting to rain this morning. I got my tools put away and covered the log splitter and the wood pile. It might be a good day to make up a batch of my extra famous hot sauce. Better check and see if I have any rum first, if not I'll have to use tequila. Got plenty of that. I started out with 2 pounds of habanaro peppers, but after 8 hours in the smoker they lose a lot of weight. Habanaros aren't very hot so it's a good thing I have a big jar of dried ghost peppers, Carolina reapers, scorpion peppers and a few other hot peppers. That should pep it up a little.
 
Got up way too early but I got some chores done that I didn't finish yesterday.

So I've mentioned b4 that I have heel pain and that plantar fasciaits...

I took a chance on some orthopedic shoes made by a Utah company named KURU.

Igot some non slip ones made for folks like in food service or health care..

The first 3 days I noticed my heels weren't as sore at the end of the day and whenever I cooled off n got back up.

However, my feet in general were fatigued that first week just getting used to them but..very minimal heel pain.

It's been 2 weeks..the shoes are broke in, my feet are great..I still have some pain after a day on my right heel but that one is the most damaged. However, after two weeks I can get up after going all day with very little pain..so I know the tears in my ligigement..whoa..lol spelling..are healing..

So I just got another pair that I can wear out on my weekends.
I hope I can start going for little jogs again by spring!!

My lime tree gave me a beautiful lime today.
I gave her a nice haircut n out dropped a sweet lime..

Since Dmarsh named his tree..maybe my girl needs a name too??
And yes..her other job is the x mas ornament holder..

The rain didn't amount to anything, what a gyp. Anyway I have a big pot of hot sauce on the stove simmering. It should come out pretty hot. Its mostly peppers with a little honey, rum and other secret ingredients. Nothing to do now but wait. The wife is already complaining about the fumes.

Update: just had to take a taste. This could be the hottest sauce that I ever concocted.
