How many are feeling the pinch?

My husband owns a plumbing company in Georgia and has been doing great for five years but this passed year since about November it has ground to a halt. He has had maybe four jobs in five months. Keep in mind it is a sole proprietor so it is not a large company. He owns his working truck, has his tools so he does not have to pay out much a month just his insurance. I know because of the economy things have gotten bad but for him to go a month with out one call is scary. Luckily I have a small job that we can use for food and small bills. I was just wondering if there were other small business owners out there still holding on by there teeth. Because our monthly expenses for the company are so low we have been able to hold on to it. I know others who have large monthly expenses had to fold there companies. If there are any one out there that have a business and are still holding on I know how you feel. Keep it up I know how you are feeling. Please share your story so that and tell how you are able to hold on.
