My blog, 8th. Ukraine, Kharkiv (19-th day of war)

The most frustrating thing about staying at home for long periods of time is constantly switching between activities that seem equally important. Especially when you live with three or more people. You have to maneuver. I have long lost the habit of this, because in recent years I have lived alone. Now I have to acquire new household and social skills)

Today, for the first time, instead of the usual arguments, everyone decided to go down to the basement at the same time, and spent an hour there. It was noisy during the day. While standing in line at the pharmacy, I've felt the vibration of the earth with my feet. It is always difficult to determine the exact location of a shot by ear. I only hope that they are behind a residential area.

Little by little I began to get used to the new way of life. Gone is the anger and misunderstanding. But on the other hand, it's 2022, and people are dying just because they ended up in the wrong part of the city. It is difficult to call such a world civilized.

It only warms that people on the street, in queues, do not particularly run wild, but hold on with dignity. There are more and more cases of looting stores in our area, but still there could be much more. So I think that everything is not as bad as our nervous perception may make us think.

Самая разражающая вещь, когда приходится подолгу сидеть дома, это постоянное переключение между занятиями, которые кажутся одинаково важными. Особенно, когда живешь втроём и более человек. Приходится маневрировать. Я давно отвык от этого, потому как последние годы жил один. Теперь приходится обретать новые бытовые и социальные навыки)

Сегодня впервые, вместо привычных споров, все одновременно решили спуститься в подвал, и провели там час. Днем было шумно. Пока стоял в очереди в аптеку, ногами чувствовал вибрацию земли. Всегда трудно на слух определить точное место выстрела. Надеюсь только, что они стоят за жилой територией.

Понемногу начал привыкать к новому образу жизни. Ушёл гнев и непонимание. Но с другой стороны, 2022 год, а люди умирают просто потому что оказались не в той части города. Цивилизованным такой мир назвать трудно.

Греет только, что люди на улице, в очередях особо не дичают, а достойно держатся. Случаев мародерства киосков на районе становится больше, но все же их могло быть и гораздо больше. Так что я считаю, что все не настолько плохо, как нам может рисовать наше нервное восприятие.

Yeah, looting in a war zone would seem to me to be a common thing. It's amazing you can still get shipments. How are your troops holding up? Are they still keeping spirits high? Will you or anyone with you need to take up arms to join them?

I do not know yet. There are rumors about the mobilization of the second stage. I think the morale is now supported by lulz in Telegram most of all) By the way, Vakarchuk (a popular performer) came to our city. Sings songs to people in the subway
