Hello everyone and welcome to November!
I spent yesterday training my replacements and now they know enough to bother me for the next two years about how to do everything.
I woke up this morning to find the temperature dropped 25 degrees overnight. Not a lot of fun when you go to sleep at 70 degrees to wake up at 45. At least I didn't have the fan or AC on.
No credit news to report, but I hope everyone gets great news this month.

boo november .. is it summer yet?
its the worst season- i have to spend time with my "family" 🙄
I start Thanksgiving dinner by toasting the fact that I haven't seen my in-laws for another year.
This Thanksgiving makes four years since I last saw this them.
My wife hates her parents as well, so it's OK.
Mornin' peeps.
I don't like November. It's cold, dark, wet, and dreary. Along with December thru February. I just want to hibernate until spring. And losing DST doesn't help either. Work days should get shorter with the shorter daylight, but they don't, so I basically live in the dark all winter. I'm no fan of the "holiday" season either, especially now that I'm alone. I'll be spending Thanksgiving alone, as I can't afford the "family trip" this year.
In credit news, I have my silver spade, and one inquiry *should* have dropped off EX by now. I've also updated my account ages in my sig. And I'm down to 237 on my mortgage countdown. Only 19 years and 9 months left. Whee. And yes, I'm still broke, though "very" slightly less broke than last month. If credit is a marathon, saving is a leisurely stroll by a snail with no motivation.
I guess I need to find something positive to say next. I've made it 3 months in the garden. Only 21 more to go (at least). Gotta keep my eye on that diamond, and a report free of inquiries.
Oh, and it's Friday!

They're closing the patient garage and moving them into the lower levels of the staff garage because they are building a new section of the hospital, where the patient's currently park. It's going to be he🏒🏒 getting out of the parking garage in the morning. The trade-off is a nice new wing of the hospital and further job security. Gtg, only on a break. 😘
Kudo'd for hockey sticks.

And Good Morning, Garden!
It's a season-appropriate 44 degrees in NoVA.
Mortgage paid.
Must remember to pay RE taxes on the 15th. Not having escrow is a double-edged sword, but one that I gladly wield.

My Experian is still suffering and I think it may be because they're not showing my Disco. I contacted Disco to request an off cycle report and it's still not reporting. What should I do?
If there's a critical need (e.g. - mortgage), find a back-door number and call. Otherwise, embrace the delay.
