Here is a little about my life in recent months. Money problems continue, the day before the new year, my dog got a flux, so, haa, I took her for daily injections for half the holidays. Now she is much better! But I again went into debt, spending credit money. Then I bought with a credit card for my mother a blood pressure monitor and strips for a glucometer in order to better monitor her condition. And now I'm back in the field of harsh saving money - my mother and I eat only wheat, pasta, potatoes. Nothing sweet, bakery, meat, even chicken eggs are now SKYROCKETED in price by ~4-5 times compared to last spring. But for what I get to buy - many thanks to my patrons on Patreon - if not for them, we would not have even this.
Regarding shelling: I still live in Zaporizhzhia, which is very close to the front line and, unfortunately, S-300 missile system volleys reach us. Massive shelling across the country during the day, almost every night shelling from the S-300... When I think that I have already come to terms with this, another exploding rocket rumbles and I lose sleep. Bad, unpleasant, disgusting. Tired. I have a house, the glass has not yet been knocked out. Yet.
On electricity: (absurd expletives) Today I had, attention, 2 hours of electricity! Planned power outages, then emergency power outages, and then emergency shutdowns (accidents at electrical substations?)! Yes, such is life after the shelling. There is only one hope that by spring, by warming, it will be better. Will it become...
Now I really really dream about an iPad or a laptop, but looking at the prices I faint - such amounts are immense for me. My priorities right now are: 1 pay off my credit card debt (~$85), 2 pay my apartment debt (~$250). And only after all this I can start thinking about STARTING SAVING MONEY for an iPad (~$380? minimum). Why everything in life depends on money, sigh.
I'm still somehow holding on, but this war is almost a year old and every day I'm going crazy more and more.
