RE: Snowy Kyiv today

in Wednesday Walk2 years ago

Snowy beautiful Ukraine and every day I miss cold snowy days. Here rarely snowfall happens I heard instead I saw a frosty morning and a little bit of ice here and there. Is the heating system working or is it working like electricity (periodically)? I always wanted to see Kyiv in winter, but never got the chance...

Stay safe...

Sort:  

I live in a bulding that has heating from a common boiler that serves for many buildings like mine. Boilers belongs to the 1st priority, and they don't turn them off. Some new buildings has autonomous heating that needs electricity, and ... they have no heating during outages.

That's great to know... I heard in Kharkiv also people are facing a shortage of heat and of course the electricity problem that you have written about already...I hope the situation will be better soon... Are you planning anything for the Holiday season? How's Nick doing?

Authorities say we'll have outages till the end of winter. Maybe they'll be shorter.

Oh, Holiday season... I don't know what to do. My daughter Nataly is bagging me to come. For us, Christmas is a family holiday, and I always celebrate with her and my mom, and my brother's family. But it all depends on Nick. He's still in Kyiv, and I am not sure he'll be allowed to leave the city. I can't leave him alone for Christmas. On other hand, Nat insists and says if I'll not come she'll not celebrate at all. She's kidding, but I guess she misses us too much. She's always been a mom's girl 💕

Finally, I don't plan anything yet, and let it just happen. Life can change any time, so we'll see.

Are you going to have days off on Christmas? Any plans?😉
