Wake up, check the news, check whether there was a shelling

The last numerous weeks pass like this: wake up, check the news, check whether there was a shelling, if there was, then where and what is damaged (almost always this means a lack of communication and electricity, sometimes water, heat), write messages, wait for an answer, wait for an answer for a day, wait for an answer for three days, five days, receive a short message in response, if are very lucky - get through, calm down a bit.

I sincerely wish you all a peaceful and happy holidays! (and hey, it's not a sad picture, it's full of Christmas, it's just not very visible because there is no light)
