Day 11

The load shedding is really getting me down. I'm trying to live my life around it but it's really hard to have to wait for electricity before I can go to gym, do laundry, cook etc. I should be grateful I'm a SAHM and I don't have to sit in traffic all day trying to get to work and back. Eskom says the power outtages will continue until 2015 and that we should learn to live without electricity. They are suggesting that we install solar panels to run the geysers but a solar panel suitable for that costs around R24 000. Who has that kind of cash lying around?

The eating part of my plan is going well. I just had stir fried spinach and feta with chicken strips for lunch and it was awesome. I did some circuit exercises at gym today, for the first time. I felt so bad not knowing what I was doing, but there where like 5 people in gym so I doubt anyone noticed.

Baby steps..
