Just being thankful.
I have (as all of us have) seen a sharp reduction to mortgage siginings. I thank God for my full-time job, I hate going there everyday, but I am still thankful for it.
I am also quite thankful and pleased at the sharp INCREASE in general notary work that has been coming my way from local residents. Apparently my efforts to increase my websites traffic is working and local people are finding me and calling me up for general notary work.
I am also thankful for my newest venture, Officiating Weddings. I got ordained with one of the online sights and have performed three weddings already. I can't say how much fun and how exciting they really are. What other job can you have where your customers are always Happy?
Count your blessings, not your problems!

I hear you, I am thankful for getting to spend the extra time with my two boys, having the energy to get a LOT of things done around my own home and enjoying the many fall festivals that are in Appalachia Sept and Oct!
Of course I will also be thankful when things pick up and I can pay for Christmas!

I am thankful also. We sold a piece of property 3 years ago and finally closed on it this past Monday. Now I can pay off the "interest only" (yes that's right) we had to take out to get through a rough time. Some of our stress is lifted off our shoulders now. I am thankful my husband has a good job with great benefits. I have been blessed with a very good year closing loans and am going to stick it out for the long haul in this business. I love it and refuse to give it up. I count my blessings everyday. My husband, I and our children and grandson are all healthy and we are so very grateful for that.

I am glad that I am spending more time at home enjoying my family, and getting just enough jobs to pay the bills. I am glad that my husband's job is okay. I am also glad he is a foodie. I don't have to worry about dinner, whether I am out signing or at home. He is either watching the food channel, or inventing something in the kitchen.

I am glad I am alive and thanking the Almighty everyday. I am glad I am not in Baghdad.

My day job...it's a blessing. My business was great when it was a business but I am very thankful I made a move when I did. I actually like coming to work and having a boss...takes a lot of the stress off of me--no decisions to speak of...'course, I have a really nice boss, too.

How about performing "quickie divorces?" :-)
