Remortgages and Remortgaging...

With all the troubles homeowners are going through here is the USA...one needs options and information to stay a head of the curb. Magic Money Remortgage is your online resource for everything associated with mortgages. One article that caught my attention was about Remortgage Products that listed several options including several that I didn't think of. It is possible, and quite often most favourable to remortgage with the same lender. This can be done by extending the life of the existing mortgage in order to reduce the amount of the monthly mortgage, or you may want to remortgage because the terms and conditions no longer meet the requirements of the home-buyer. Magic Money Mortgages has the information to connect you with the right mortgage for your situation...check them out!

Ultimate Sacrifice...

Paratropper Memorial Lake Kinney CameronOn 16 Feb 1944 Sixty Four years ago today 8 U.S. Army Paratroppers drowned on a night training exercise in Lake Kinney Cameron located in northern Scotland County, North Carolina. These men were part of the advance wave of young Americans trainning for the invasion of Europe who never made it to the battlefields but their sacrifice was not in vain and its an honor to pay my respects to these brave men.

Job Search...Daily Walk..

Winter Landscape Oak Openings MetroparkI managed to walk this morning for the 3rd straight day as part of my wellness plan to make me feel better and took this picture of the winter landscape. These daily walks are also helping me cope with my unemployment anxiety and I hope will give me the edge if and when I get an interview.

Job Search...

This has been one tough week on the job front...very few opportunities available in NW Ohio! My mental condition this week set me back for a few days...But am now starting to come around...I think! Managed to walk the last 2 days and had lunch Thursday with 2 friends from work. That really helped me...Thanks Men! My goal for today is 1 resume mailed, and walk. My wife is having surgery this afternoon..So I will be with her in this very difficult time for her.

Happy Birthday....

Providence Dam, Grand Rapids, Ohio
Today I counted and celebrated a Birthday...In truth I have stop counting and celebrating them...at least in public! LOL! Happy Birthday!! In Gods Love..!

Job Search...

Today on the job search front there is nothing to report. My unemployment has been shut off because my x-employer is paying me severance over a 4 week period instead of a lump sum and thus no unemployment for 4 weeks. As for insurance...I'm being compelled to pay for it myself and "Bay" will pay me back when I provide a paid receipt. Lets throw up more obstacles…kick a man when he is down! How can this be healthy for the employees that still work there? I know it’s not healthy for me! I managed to walk, ate light, and gave praise…I will be delivered! Amen!

Laurinburg-Maxton Airbase...

This is Command 1st Sergeant John B. Leach (Ret. U.S. Army) standing beside the WWII Combat Glider Pilots Memorial at the Laurinburg-Maxton Airbase in Scotland County NC. This man started the Scotland County Association of Military Retirees in the 1980's and is instrumental in getting this memorial erected honoring these brave men. The Laurinburg-Maxton airbase was the largest glider training facility in the nation during WWII and saw thousands of America's young men.

Lake Kinney Cameron...

Located in the northern part of Scotland County North Carolina is a little known memorial dedicated to 8 paratroppers of the 551st Parachute Infantry Battalion who died on a night parachute jump 16 Feb 1944 at Lake Kinney Cameron. These men paid the ultimate price securing the freedom of these United States of America and I find it an honor to pay tribute to these brave men.

Job Search...

Its been 10 days since I've blogged about my job search. I have nothing to report on the job front. I have been struggling with state unemployment office in securing unemployment...something about a severance package...I haven't seen one dime of that package...I'll try again tomorrow. I walked...ate light..and worked on resumes.
