Pop goes the circuit breaker

Sunday, when I was drying my hair while the coffee maker was on... This morning, when the washer and dryer were running, and the coffee maker timer turned on... And many other times throughout the project, though the problem has intensified since the electrician turned the power on to the new side last week...
Luckily, we spoke with the electrician last night, and our current capacity issues are temporary. A few days ago, he routed three circuits into one breaker to provide plenty of juice for the power tools, but left us a little lacking. He'll fix it on Friday.
We still have a general capacity issue, and are thinking about what we'll have to do to solve it. We're not sure if solar is the right answer.
Would you believe, the breaker popped even as I was typing this??
