Giving from the Heart!

I was reading an article in Massage Envy Magazine by Teresa Caldwell Board and I thought I would share its contents.  It states that more than 30 studies link volunteering to the specific physical and mental health benefits.  It pushes people to share joy.  "Cultivate a spirit of volunteering by looking for simple ways to show compassion and gratitude in your circle of connections.  To get involved you can search by zip code for local volunteer opportunities that fit your interests at allforgood.org"  I am urging my Florida friends to get involved in The Race for the Cure.  A beautiful benefit celebrating the survivors of breast cancer.  I know that everyone will enjoy this event and will feel more joy for volunteering their time. 

COME JOIN OUR TEAM! Please go to the below link and register to do the Race for the Cure on Sunday October 16, 2011. On the right side, client "join an existing team" then enter team name "Team Momma Stone" then click search for team and our team will pop up.

Married couples do not have to file a bankruptcy together!

Did you know that married couples do not necessarily have to file a bankruptcy together?  If all of the debt is in one spouses name, the other spouse does not need to join the bankruptcy.  Keep in mind that if you have joint debt and only one spouse files a bankruptcy, the other spouse's liability does not go away.  If you are contemplating bankruptcy because your paycheck(s) are not covering your expenses let alone leaving you any money to pay your bills; however, you are worried about both of you filing, please give my office a call at 407-217-5807.  Do not was one more stressful day or sleepless night, schedule a free consultation today so I can go over your concerns and give you some guidance.

Be positive and love your life!

I spent an amazing weekend with my sister and great friends at a music festival at  Suwannee River State Park.  The scenery was amazing, the music was fantastic, the sun was shining and I was in heaven.  In the middle of paradise, I was shocked to find that there were many unhappy people.  It made me wonder, why would people pay to be here to not enjoy the beauty, nature, new friendships, laughter and love that was going on all around them?  I know that every person experiences stress, problems, set backs, depression, disappointment, etc.  I believe that people focus too much of their attention on the bad in their life and do not take ANY time to focus on the good.  My beautiful mother always sings to me a song when I get too rapped up in the negative, "When upon life’s billows you are tempest tossed.  When you are discouraged, thinking all is lost. Count your many blessings, name them one by one, and it will surprise you what the Lord hath done."  We all need to take time out of our life every day to count our many blessings.  If we all did this, I believe there would be a welcoming surprise how negativity will start to float away and positivity will enter your soul.  Smile at strangers and stop to smell the roses.  Life is what you make it so make it great!  Please call me at 407-217-5807 if there is anything I can do to help you turn your frown upside down.

Do you have a large 2nd mortgage?

Did you know that if you have 2 mortgages that you could potentially get a 2nd mortgage and lien stripped from your house with a chapter 13 bankruptcy?  If your house is appraised at even one dollar less than what you owe on your first mortgage, a chapter 13 bankruptcy will discharge your legal obligation to pay on a second mortgage and will judicially strip the lien off of your house.  This is a great option for people who have 2nd mortgages and your house has dropped dramatically in value in this tough economy.  Call my office today at 407-217-5807 to schedule a free consultation to see if this option would work for you!
