REMINDER REMINDER REMINDER
Get yourselves off your duff and take care of your woman this week.  This year the date falls on Sunday so your order better be in by Friday or you will be SOL.

FSU Women think about this day as much or more than they do Valentine's Day.  So make her happy!

About to hop on a plane tomorrow to go back to Kharkiv to revisit my lady friend, so this year I will be fortunate enough to actually spend Women's Day with her.

Therefore the gifts side of the equation already taken care of...

Any suggestions on how to treat my lady friend on the activities side of the equation this Sunday?
Leaving town to go to a holiday resort is out of the question as the lady have to go to work the following day.

For God's sake man, don't go on any marches in support of Ukraine in Kharkiv this weekend.

You mean that you will be her gift ?

Not a bad idea.
A beautiful woman is pleasant to look at, but it is easier to live with a pleasant acting one.

For a celebratory activity, I'm taking my fiancee and teen daughter to the arguably best restaurant in Lviv...at least, it's our favorite in the city.

Going to a really posh restaurant is out of the question as the lady has a very active 3y.o. boy.
I was thinking something like taking her to a day spa centre for a massage, facial treatment and pedicure etc.
With it being still winter that limits the outdoors activities we can do...

sleepycat,

have you thought of the aqua park ?  not sure if its open at present , but its good for a busy child ,
try paris centre near pushkinsya metro for a great meal or movie/music , zoo if its still open also ?

ski park might be the go ?

or if sunday is not wet , make up a simple bbq  lunch with shashliks, and hit up a bbq park area if its possible ,or do it indoors at an apartment for lunch , then cinema etc

take care , kharkiv is not as safe as it was , being an aussie you will be ok

best of luck with it

AquaPark in Kharkiv is open all through the year.  It is indoors.  Love the slide that flushes you out like a toilet.

Did a couple of 2 hour drives with Ochka today.
Asked her about the Women's Day thingy.

She said, Yeah it was a nice because usually a day off, an office party, etc., etc.

But not the end-all for her.

She doesn't care if I do nothing special for her on the day.

I can't even remember what, if anything, I have done in previous years; so must not have been much.

On a little different twist:

I have pretty much turned her to my way of thinking about birthdays, holidays, etc.

That is . . . that they need not be observed strictly on a given day.

We celebrate birthdays (mine was just last week) on a day convenient in terms of her work schedule, what other things are going on, etc.

I have seen marriages deteriorate because the guy couldn't be there for a child's birthday party, etc.  Jeez . . . just move it to a day when he can be there.

For those who wants to send a prospect or more a flowers I can recommend http://www.sunrose.com.ua/

No I am not affiliated with them in any way, but I have used them a couple of times and they have been really good delivering on time and with fair prices imo.

maybe someone else have another suggestion for us poor bastards that cant be on the ground this day.
