Mercury Retro is up my family's ass with a BIG STICK!

[Eurobabe]

I can't begin to tell you the annoyances that have befallen us (as a family) since bastard Mercury went retro on Monday. Actually we have felt the effects even before T-giving. Here goes:

I went to ER Monday eve with bounding heart palpitations. Nothing wrong they say, but it is so bad I can't take my daily thyroid medication. Panic out the wazoo (I'm a Leo) Our second house contract has fallen through, this time a week away from settlement. Buyer is in legal default. Oh joy, bring on the lawyers!

Daughter who is a Saggitarius, has biz trip to go to Paris on 12/7, her temp agency says yesterday, oh you can't go - it is a liability issue. Co. she works for needs her to go it is vital she attend a meeting for the job she is doing.

Mom, an Aries, has been working for an idiot lawyer who has made Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde look like a romantic fairy tale. He has time to bitch at her all day about how she is not getting his work done, A-1 class a$$hole whiner.

Oh and not to mention the daily phone problems, computer problems, etc.

Anyone else HATE these Mercury periods??

3. Retro always sucks for me

Let's see...I'm having trouble with one of my phone lines, sometimes it works...sometimes it doesn't. The phone company can't find anything wrong. My phone on my second line crapped out on me in the middle of a phone call from my son at school...all heard was "Mom, I need you to......." and it broke.

My laundry room flooded today when the sump pump failed to kick on. It's not broke, the float was just hung up.

The washer was thrown off balance today and took about an hour for me to get it back in place...it kept spinning the tub off kilter.

I was making a doll quilt for my niece and I never checked the backside of it...the bobbin tread was completely screwed up over the entire quilt; I need to remove every quilting stitch I put in.

<sigh> I hate retro....

Cheers,
Kim :toast:

5. It isn't getting any better, time to hire a lawyer

Because of the screw ups we could have 3 buyers on our house. Now which one is legally entitled? WTF knows.

MERCURY!!!!!

6. They are not the most fun for me!

I have six planets, a rising sign, and Chiron tied up in Mercury ruled houses.

This has been a relative mild one for me..but not so much for some of my friends.

One friend lost $1600 hundred dollars that was in an envelope while shopping around town. Another friend had to drive back from Pennsylvania(to New York)on her way to Florida because she had put her stuff in the wrong storage unit.

All I've done so far is forget to lock the back door at work so the police had to call me to come down and lock it.:-(

This too shall pass :)
