I just want it to be at least right at average for my birthday. I always go to my grandparents for thanksgiving in southern Alabama, so a break from 75 and sunny thanksgivings would be welcome since I’m staying home this year
 
"For the people to rule wisely, they must be free to think and speak without fear of reprisal."
Consider asking for access to the political thread to post political articles. It was fine up until just after election day or so outside that thread, but since it is well past that time this thread isn't the place.
 
Three positive things:

1. At work I managed to control my anger which has been a huge issue, I didn't snap at a nasty customer and instead put my hands together, said god bless you and have patience mam

2. Getting trained to teach F45

3. Making my first payment on my student loans a full 3 years early before the first payment due. Beating myself up because I really really could have paid off a good amount last 2 years had I got started earlier.
 
Thoughts on item 3? I have both sub and unsub loand. Unsub loans accumulate interest while sub loans dont till I leave. Someone suggested it would be better to save some money then pay them off when they are due. I hate debt period lol. Thoughts?
 
How is it that such a liberal state like Georgia ( the only state in the south to vote for Biden) consistenly has Republican governors ?

How is it that North Carolina which votes republican in every presidential election since the 60s just about still elects democrat governors most of the time ? State politics are always a bit different than national ! I’m still in denial about Georgia lol! Seeing the electoral map and seeing the blue hole in Georgia surrounded by a sea of red is odd !

Not trying to be political, just speaking from historical information, but to be fair, Georgia has only started electing republican governors somewhat recently. From January 1872-January 2003 Georgia had all Democratic governors. Since then they have had three republican governors so I am not sure it is fair to say they consistently vote republican governors right now.

And yet not one of those democratic governors was black. How does a state with over 30% black population not ever have a black governor ?
