Well, got word today that it will probably be another

week until I get my car back and fixed BUT at least

I have their very nice courtesy car to use until the

swap can be made. I really have to hand it to my Ford

dealer, Hutcheson Ford of St. James, MO. They went

way beyond expecations to fight for me to get my repairs

made under warranty when the warranty company had flat

out refused to honor the claim. If I ever want and/or

need a new car, there is no way I would ever go anywhere

else, though in all honesty, I just want my old one to

run forever, lol.

 

Lowered prices at my eBay store so sales went up a bit

BUT the money amount was down so my newly won

Power Seller status is at risk. If you ever buy books,

movies, cd's, Barbies and other collector dolls,

Elvis or Betty Boop stuff, etc. I would sure appreciate

your checking out MY eBay store. I have almost totally

positive feedback and quite a few return customers

so even the few of you who do not know me can rest

assured that I send what I advertise or more :-)

My brand new Grandson, Aiden, will be three months

old on Saturday! Geez, no fair. I have still only

seen him just once, the trip I made to take my beloved

3 year old grand-daughter Madison home after Mommy had

the baby and that is my number one goal when I do get

my car back. The 94 mile trip one way is just too

much for me to afford in a Taurus that gets 23 miles

to the gallon with the air conditioner OFF when most

of our days lately have been near or up to 100- I got

30 or more mpg with my Focus and still could barely

afford to see them all more than once a month.

Of course, it is still much better than last year

when gas prices were over a dollar a gallon higher!

 

I have over 1000 classic or hard to find videos and DVDs,

books and cd's and some great memorabilia items.

Blogger Forums - A Great Place To Advertise Your Blog

 

No matter what type of blog you have, one of the best ways

that you can advertise your blog is to join a blogger forum.

 

After all, everyone who posts there has a blog and that's

the main point. It's a great place to meet other bloggers

and to advertise your own blog.

 

There are quite a few blogger forums that you can sign up for.

 

One is known as Bloggeries, where you can show off your blog,

get your blog reviewed or review other blogs, and find lots

of tools that you can use for your own blog.

 

Another good place to try is Blog Forum. Blog Forum, like

Bloggeries, has spots for you to market and show off your blog.

 

Blogger forums are a great place to advertise because everyone

in these areas are of the same mind and want to make certain

that their blogs get noticed and read.

 

If you use your blog to advertise something that you are

selling, or you want to get a lot of traffic to your blog

in order to make money, you want to go someplace where it

can get exposure.

 

 

When you advertise on a blog forum, you know that you are

placing your advertisement in a place where blogging is

something that people enjoy.

 

Just remember when you are posting to a forum to read the

rules and abide by them. That way you'll get your blog

noticed and you will know that you are doing the right thing.

Feedback

 

I sent a solo out last night and completely forgot

to remove my few No Solo subscribers. I heartily

apologize, did not even realize it until I got

a heated UnSub request. It was not my intent, things

just get away from me sometimes and I do my best

but occasionally mess up. Yesterday must have been

MY DAY to mess up, lol. I spent 2 hours doing a

transcription of a 20 minute pod cast as my pc

kept freezing up with the pod cast software and

then found out I had done the WRONG POD CAST, as

well. It was time to take a break after that one!

 

 

just think, you can have your feedback in this

section with a link to you or your biz, hint, hint.
