I love this work!

Had a reverse mortgage closing Friday morning. Lovely Japanese lady, 76, still had her high school figure and flawless skin. Lives in my old neighborhood, where my Beautiful & Talented Wife, now my Beautiful & Talented Estranged Wife and soon to be my Beautiful & Talented Ex-Wife, still lives in our house. I mentioned that the Japanese's greatest contribution is sushi. At which point she jumped up and fixed me the most delicious sushi I've ever laid lip to, and for good measure threw in some fried battered shrimp and meta (mita?) soup.

Her late husband was an Air Force bomber pilot in World War II, and was stationed in Japan after the war, when they met. During the war his plane had actually bombed the town where his future wife lived.

Unfortunately, she doesn't have a bass boat.

What a delightful signing you had......Maybe a future prospect for the mating game? Asian's tend to look years younger then what they actually are...... so the fact she is 76 should be of no concern. Huge, by the way do you know how sexual the His Hugeness sounds?

***Huge, by the way do you know how sexual the His Hugeness sounds?***

You may wish to check your spelling. I have no delusions -- nor, I might, does anyone with whom I am intimately acquainted.

I have borrowers offer me to stay for dinner, which I declined. 2 weeks ago I had a Saturday 9:00am signing and my husband was with me for the witness. The couple was our age and they thought that my husband and I were real funny and sounded like we would be a fun couple to so things with. They invited us to a BBQ they were having that afternoon, we had them over the next weekend and the husbands went fishing and we went to some yard sales.
We have become fast friends. I meet some of the nicest people and I really enjoy this work most of the time. I do not schedule my closing close together because I do not want to get stressed. When this work becomes more of a job, I will move onto something else.

My sentiments exactly, Margaret.
