For week now, it has been raining every single day. I have so many things to do and no energy. I notice that I get this was everytime it rains. I'm starting to believe that I am solar powered and when the sun isn't here, my energy isn't either. Am I the only person that is solar powered?

Well I guess there is a few who are like you who depend on the power of the sun to energize your home. I guess it does have disadvantages and advantages. But I admire you for doing such to help our environment recover from too much carbon we are putting in the environment. In my place I think that is ideal since we do have sun all throughout the year with only a few days that we don't have sun. But I think it is an expensive to have right now. I dream someday that it will become affordable.

I feel the same way! When the sun is shinning I have all the energy in the world. When it is a rainy dismal day all I want to do is lay around or nap. So yeah, I guess I am solar powered. I never thought of it that way :)

Most people lose energy when it is darker. Usually it's more in the winter season where it's known as the winter blues. You will have to install brighter lights in your environment to make up for the lack of sunlight. Although this seems to be a lot of effort, it will work. Also keep in mind that people feel like they lost energy eventually may feel blue and depressed.

Wow It's awesome to be a solar powered person. Your post poped up a question in my mind: Is there any way to save the power for a long time? You know, just like the dry cell batteries, or our cell phone's one.
