Life in hell
a year ago
This is just a cry of the soul for the recent weeks that have been happening in the country.
We have no light for 17-20 hours, and in some cases even for several days. Because of this, many people are unable to turn on the air conditioner at home and simply suffer from the heat. We have terrible heat. Only grocery stores are worse, they too are no longer able to keep the generators running normally for whole days and because of this, many products simply spoil, because there is no normal cooling. The same generally applies to refrigerators at home, where there is not even a generator.
The connection sometimes drops, I have almost no Internet on my computer. Only sometimes he appears and I go to post something.
I don't know how to work in such conditions.
I don't know how to find customers here either. I don't have any orders right now, and I don't have any money either. And under such conditions as described above, it generally turns into some sort of continuous survival, not life.
And I haven't mentioned again for shelling, which no one canceled either... And they were and most likely still will be.
AAAAAAAAAAA
I hate our neighboring country with all my heart. Why do we have to tolerate it and adapt to such a life because of them? Argh.

We'll keep those records, and add them to the bill when the time comes.
i guess you and your countrymen might already know the area and how to survive better than any stranger could.
o I guess for refrigerator, minimalizing opens can help trap the heat. You could also try covering the refridgerator with spare blankets (to try and maximize insulation a tiny bit). while it was off. But nothing restores coldness.
o For the artwork i guess you could try experimenting with traditional. Charcoal can be made very easily by burning any source of wood with a lighter and then you could play with coffee stains to stain the paper and paint on paper and experiment with charcoal/physical sketches maybe(???), and then photograph when power was back.
But i have 0 idea about selling/demand, and it's definitely a hell of a situation you and your peers would know better than me, a person on the other end of the world.
You might have to switch yourself into "survival mode", but yeah, sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do to survive, for each of us in our own lifes. Fresh food, fresh water, and whatever puts food on the table for your family .
For heat. if you have dry heat, wetting a shirt or a towel and putting it on your neck can help with water cooling. As the water evaporates in a dry climate, it cools you down. But The shirts can also get moldy/mildewy if you keep them constantly hot and moist. So you might want to rotate them out to dry in the uv sunlight or mist with a spray bottle instead. Or a battery fan.
In a pinch a rechargable light or maybe a solar panel light with on/off switch(???) might be able to improvise.
But the light levels are usually low/piss poor. You could charge it up and use it at night and try using it for off days. A AA battery can usually provide light for about 2-3 hrs in a cheap battery, and 4-7+ hrs for a decent battery like a Duracell/Kirkland life battery.
Still these are just flailing around, war is definitely messier than the cartoons and video games portray. You don't respond, wounds can get infected, and there isn't usually treasure chests and loot chests, but lifelong injuries and mutual piles of injuries and casualties for stuff of not much gain, other than isolated politicans 2000 miles away from the war, who'll never fight it, voting to start it for fun in a politican's voting room.
But thank you, I am really very grateful to you! You helped me a lot! ;з; 🧡🧡🧡
