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,
Danna Crawford
CEO/Founder PowerSellingMom, Inc.

Now this is cool!

Twitter Blog: What's Happening?

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!

In all the years I've been selling on eBay the only item I've bought is TAPE!

My eBay Store

I opened up my eBay store (back in the day) lol No clue when but when I did I called it: Ask Danna. Then I bought the domain: AskDanna.com. At the time I had a website that was for people to ask me questions about eBay and to share freebies and offer free auction advertising.
This was way before the bump came along.
The way I had it for people to share their auctions was,
I set-up a guest book on my website page.
I changed the wording on the guest book.
Instead of it reading: Sign my guest book, I had it read: Post your Auction here!
It worked out very well at the time and I had quite a following of regular people posting auctions and visiting my website: AskDanna.com.

Soon, my site was so busy with traffic that the "Free" site I had it on would not allow anymore visitors. I contact the company and they said I was over my traffic limit for the month.

I then went to GoDaddy and set-up a website there.
I love it and it all went smooth until they started charging me more money each month than what I had signed up for. After the 2nd month of this happening, I contacted GoDaddy to ask them what the deal was and they told me that in one month I had over 28 thousand visitors AND the next month I had 32 thousand visitors in one month! I was like OMG!

I had to increase my bandwidth and come up with a new plan.

Soon after: PowerSellingMom.com was born and after awhile, I had no need for the AskDanna.com site anymore except to point it to my eBay store. I've always had the same name, so now my AskDanna.com points to my eBay store AND the rest is history!

Customized Christmas Cards

When my children were little, every Thanksgiving I would have them group together for a photo shoot! I felt it was the perfect time to capture a "family" moment and turn that photo into the yearly Christmas card I would send out to my family and friends. I've tried several different companies over the years and this is one I HIGHLY recommend for the best price:

VistaPrint
For a limited time they are offering:
50% Off Photo Holiday Cards. Personalize holiday cards with your photos! Exp 12/31/08
And their prices are fantastic!
I can proudly stand behind this company and say that they are indeed " MOM APPROVED!" ((smiles))

If you're looking for some Box lots of Christmas cards that are not personalized, I found some great deals.
