Sorry if this is a quick, dumb or obvious question, but for the life of me I couldn't see any instructions on where the notary was supposed to stamp and sign. Today I had it done and the notary stamped and signed right near the signature.

Is this adequate or am I missing something...

As long as its on the same page, anywhere near your signature its fine. Some forms that require a notary don't even provide enough space for the stamp.

You don't need to notarize I-864.

I-130 Timeline with USCIS:

It took 92 days for I-130 to get approved from the filing date

NVC Process of I-130:

It took 78 days to complete the NVC process

Interview Process at The U.S. Embassy

Interview took 223 days from the I-130 filing date. Immigrant Visa was issued right after the interview

There is no place for a notary signature, nor do the instructions indicate that a notary is required.

8-30-05 Met David at a restaurant in Germany

3-28-06 David 'officially' proposed

4-26-06 I-129F mailed

9-25-06 Interview: APPROVED!

10-16-06 Flt to US, POE Detroit

11-5-06 Married

7-2-07 Green card received

9-12-08 Filed for divorce

12-5-08 Court hearing - divorce final

A great marriage is not when the "perfect couple" comes together.

It is when an imperfect couple learns to enjoy their differences.
