You would think I would know better than to buy a computer during a Mercury RX
But no, I had to go on Ebay and purchase a new (to me) computer. I'm sure the computer is fine (If it ever arrives.) Ah, the stupidity of expecting a shipment ON TIME during a Mercury RX. Geesh.
It was supposed to be here on Friday but it was rerouted by accident. I think on purpose. Anyway, it is supposed to be here tomorrow. I won't hold my breath.

1. I hope that everything turns out to be perfectly fine, PinkTiger.
I've had similar Mercury Retrograde periods where every package that I sent or was supposed to receive was screwed up. I'll send good vibes your way in the hopes that everything gets there correctly and as quickly as possible.

2. Patience
That's a requirement of Merc. rx.

I also made some purchases a couple of weeks ago and didn't expect to see them until after direct motion began. Also had some mess ups with returning an item/getting credited, and it took all this time just to get it straightened out.

Hope you get a happy ending.

3. I had to renew my Passport during Merc Rx
and, to my utter amazement and shock, it was completed and in my hands within a week! I had anticipated it being processed during Merc Rx and then, perhaps, sent my way after he turned Direct. But, nope, there it was in my disbelieving hands a measly week after I sent it in.

It's one of those new electronic ones, so let's just see how it works. Maybe THAT'S where Mercury will play his retrograde tricks. :evilgrin:

4. I've been waiting a month for a package from Germany
She sent it out just before the retrograde began. Sigh. Today is President's day so no mail, maybe tomorrow.

5. Are you the owner of a new pc today?
You reminded me that during this rx, I didn't even allow myself to get into what the next day might bring. My mind would not go there. I took it in very small time segments. The tempo was something new to me. Definitely different than running on straight time.

I've had a legal issue pending for several weeks. I got all the papers turned in before it went rx. Now I've just been waiting. I had a pop up reminder from my calendar today, Merc direct, so I will call my attorney in a few days and see what shook loose :D
