962 day of war
Hello, friends!
This week has been quite calm, with almost no air raid alerts. It's getting colder now, and it seems they are stockpiling missiles, so mass attacks on energy infrastructure may not happen until the frosts set in. After almost three years of war, it feels like there's some sort of schedule for events in each season. I increasingly feel that the person I was before the war is gone, and living in a country at war has significantly changed my worldview. I feel like we've adapted to the war, and now, while these challenges are unpleasant, they're expected, and we can prepare for them.
I've noticed that I'm a bit worn out from dyeing, so I decided to take a few days off. Halloween is approaching, and I wanted to create themed T-shirts, but after finishing the last one, I realized I had neither the energy nor the inspiration left. Currently, there are no orders, so I have some time to focus on other things and take a break.
That's why I've been cooking a lot, cleaning, and even set up a small relaxation spot for the cat on the balcony. Although she doesn't like going outside, she loves to relax on the balcony. In the evenings, it's still warm in the sun, and I'm trying to make the most of it before winter comes and the sky is constantly overcast.
I've come up with the idea of making Halloween-themed socks, and I think people might find that interesting. There's still plenty of time, so I can both rest and do everything. At the same time, I will take a break from tee shirts)
Meanwhile, taxes have been raised to a record high in the country, which I find quite sad. Of course, the country needs more money to cover expenses, but I think it would make more sense to tax luxury goods, cars, and similar items more heavily. After they stopped providing rent assistance to displaced people, even though they promised to continue until the end of the war, I don't have many illusions left. So, we're stocking up on flour, grains, and preparing for winter. I guess the government is doing everything it can to help the country survive, and I'm trying to believe this is temporary, and things will eventually return to how they were.
Right now, it's unclear what President Zelensky's plan for ending the war looks like, but there is still some hope that the situation might change. That people will stop living under constant shelling and deteriorating conditions. Living during the war feels limiting, and this time feels like it's been lost. All energy goes into just getting by—to pay rent and eat. It's sad because this time could have been spent doing something useful. I'm trying not to give up and doing everything I can to adapt to this life, and I believe that these hardships will eventually come to an end.
Thank you for supporting me, I'm glad I’m not alone. Also, thank you for your help on buymeacoffee, it helps a lot.
