i was brought to the cafe close to 1pm to help my father set up a metal shelf in the basement and disassemble the hospital bed at my grand uncle's place. the shelving took more than 30 minutes to put together. afterwards we looked at the bed but it required some tools to take it apart. while i was there i also checked the internet, my sister's been complaining about slow speed. download was just 4-5 Mbps, until i rearranged the modem and router so it sat higher on a table and reset everything. speed was back to a manageable 24 Mbps. we left with hailey and returned to belmont.

it was a cloudy and cold day and there was even a thin layer of snow in the morning. without even a glimmer of sun, the solar panels only barely managed to produce 2.59 kWh of energy and the system didn't even crack 1 kW. only about 1 kWh went back to the grid as we used the rest powering up the house during the daytime including the tv and a space heater. there was a bit of light snow clinging onto a few panels but tomorrow's supposed to be in the lower 30's and if there's a bit of sun all that snow will quickly melt away.

when my sister returned to belmont to pick up her dog she gave me a ride back to cambridge as well.
