And just like that, Mercury is no longer in retrograde. Suddenly I'm full of energy and happily running errands on my day off. I'm paying bills without the usual fear of the low balance in my checking account. And there were even good brussel sprouts in the produce bin at the grocery  store this time.

I'm actually feeling open to creative projects and am meeting my cousin later to discuss some writing possibilities over vegan dinner. 

I am not even going to ruin today by obsessing over having to work the entire upcoming weekend. 

I've restocked the flour and sugar and might just bake myself a chocolate cake.
