The Man Behind the Spiral Design

Meet Daniel Morton:

Dan had a dream, a vision which all started like this:
"I was sitting in the living room alone. On a wall there were three long shelves filled with trophies, one trophy in particular caught my eye, it was a single spiral with a cup on it The trophy was made of plastic. In my mind's eye I could see the single spiral made of wood. My mind went into deep thought. Mentally I tried to design a way the spiral could be made of wood. A thought finally came to my mind as I had a vision of a beautiful, spiral lamp."

At the young age of 75 his dream is now becoming a reality!
His beautiful spiral design has been created into an elegant Coffee Table:

Be Careful what you re-Tweet


For those that do not know what RT means:
RT = Re-Tweet.
And it is a nice thing to do when you see a tweet come through your network that you love and/or appreciate. You can copy the words and put RT in front of their name and re-tweet it!

For example, if someone sent out a tweet reading:
A gal I follow:

ModelSupplies

Just tweeted: @ModelSupplies You can go a month without food, you can live three days without water, but you can't go more then sixty seconds without HOPE. -Sean Swarner

I like what she posted so I would copy what she posted: You can go a month without food, you can live three days without water, but you can't go more then sixty seconds without HOPE. -Sean Swarner

And then I would click on the ARROW to reply to her, then I would paste what she said after her name. So it would now look like this:

@ModelSupplies
You can go a month without food, you can live three days without water, but you can't go more then sixty seconds without HOPE. -Sean Swarner

THEN I would add RT in front of the @ Before her name. The KEY to this is to make sure you have a SPACE or her name will not be a HOT LINK. So, it would now read:

RT @ModelSupplies You can go a month without food, you can live three days without water, but you can't go more then sixty seconds without HOPE. -Sean Swarner

NOW, we have a problem with this tweet.

When I re-Tweet it she has a long name so, it has put it over the 140 limit by 12. Twitter alert is telling me -12.

I have a few options, I can try to shorten it to something like this:


RT @ModelSupplies Ucan go a month without food U can live three days without water but Ucan't go more then 60 sec without HOPE -Sean Swarner

The saying now fits with 0 space left! Notice I changed the word YOU to U and I removed commas, changed sixty to 60 and shortened seconds.
The only bad thing about this is it will be difficult for someone else to RT it.


Keep this in mind when you are sending out short sayings. Keep them as short as possible so that your friends can RT them easily. Keep a space before the @ AND at the end add a period and/or an additional space. Especially when you RT links.
Make double sure there is a SPACE after the link or it will not be HOT.


I hope that helps understand a bit better about Re-tweeting!


Something else I must tell you about,
today I had re-tweeted a nasty radio show and I felt terrible after I did it.

One of my friends tweeted about a current Radio show that was on the air at Blog Talk Radio so, nice person that I am decided to help them out with the promotion and RT a few of their posts. Suddenly I decided to tune into one of those shows and soon found out it contained nasty, vulgar wording in the music!

I felt so bad that I had actually sent that tweet out to my followers.

How very stupid of me!

GREAT LESSON LEARNED.

Beware of what you RT.

Good rule of thumb is to check out the link before you re-tweet it because it will indeed reflect onto you and the results will be followers lost.


My sincerest apology to all those that may of heard that show.
I will pay more attention to what I re-tweet in the future.

Much respect,

I've Saved 7 months, 3 days, 20 hours of my Life Today


I woke up one morning only to have my prayers answered.
I did not smoke anymore!
After smoking from age 16 to age 40 something, it was a true miracle I quit!
I prayed many nights before bed, "Please Lord, let me wake up in the morning and not smoke!" And it finally happened! Cold turkey I knew that I knew it was time and it was "his"time not mine! I quit with no problems and have not smoked since!

I also joined this website:
QuitNet.com and it has been a rewarding influence to get their notices of how much longer I will live because of not smoking!

**cheers** to a healthy, smoke free life!

I got the BEET

My Aunt Sally gave me a bunch of fresh beets she picked up at the farmers market up by Palatka FL. They are huge!

I've never cooked fresh beets before so last night while on Twitter I had some great input from a few of my followers:


markdavidgerson@PowerSellingMom I just steam 'em. They're so tasty, they don't need much else!believesulli@PowerSellingMom I just boil them,or steam them,cut them in smaller pieces when they are fork tender.They're the best!Just don't wear white.

christinajade@PowerSellingMom this is good, tried it couple wks ago! http://tinyurl.com/afzppl

markdavidgerson@PowerSellingMom just peel and slice them first or it will take forever!christinajade@PowerSellingMom thank you! very very yummy stuff! :) let me know what you think!LeahCarson@PowerSellingMom Shredded beets+shredded carrots + touch of preferred sweetner + dash of ground cloves = great side dish

...........................................................................................

I will post later with photos of what I decided to make. But since I have sweet potatoes she also brought me I think I will go with the suggestion from christinajade.

Appreciated markdavidgerson letting me know about slicing them thin. I bet it would take forever to cook them.

Had to laugh at believesulli about wearing white!!! lol

Also appreciated
LeahCarson
with the shredded suggestion. I may have to try that one next time!

Green Shipping Rocks

If you are SHIPPING GREEN then take the Green Shipping pledge!

I will give free advertising to those shipping green!

In all the years I've been selling on eBay the only item I've bought is TAPE!
I've been able to ship green all these years.

When I first started it mainly was because I was a Single mom on a budget!

And as a Girl Scout leader, I did appreciate the importance of not wasting and recycling.

Since then, I've write: Green Shipping ROCKS on all my packages!

People are loving it actually!!
