It’s Memorial Day weekend and I have so much to tell you. But first, I thought I’d finish off this trilogy before I move on to my next post. Besides, this is going to be short one – I’m only ten days in with my new job, so there’s not…
Mercury is in retrograde. In layman’s terms (because I do read my horoscope every week – whether I take it seriously is another story), I guess that means all hell is breaking loose as we speak. At least for Taurus (me), this is supposed to be a period of questioning,…
