I came across this Artful Blogger magazine online at some point. I absolutely had to have it! I became over eager and ended up with two. Oops.
So, I decided to give it out as a blog prize. I was going to have people vote on which of my faux Baldylocks ads they liked best but now my Photoshop has gone on strike. Eeek.
I love and collect inspiring quotes so what I will have you do to enter, is to leave your favorite quote in the comments. When the week is up I will draw a name out of a hat and send it to the winner.
Please, lets give this (expensive) magazine a good home.

You crack me up!!
You don't need to send me a magazine, but I'll add some quotes...
Okay, I just went searching for some quotes that I liked, but I can't find them :( LAMB!!!
So here's a lame-ish one...
Eat, drink, and be merry for tomorrow we'll die

Thanks Kelly.
A woman is like a teabag. It's only when she's in hot water that you realize how strong she is.
Nancy Reagan, former First-Lady of the United States of America
I've been eying that mag!!
Nice quote!
Two men look out through the same bars: One sees the mud, and one the stars. (Frederick Langbridge)
I used to collect quotes (dorky I know) but can't seem to think of any at the moment except for the one above.
So I just tried to type in www.baldylocks.com and it didn't work - it said coming soon! Weird, I know! Just thought I would share! XO Bff!
My favorite quote is:
People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within. - Elisabeth Kubler Ross
"Nothing makes a person more productive than the last minute." Unknown
These are two that I like.
“Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it” - Charles R. Swindoll
"What lies behind us, and what lies before us,
are tiny matters compared to what lies within us." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
I love these!
I don't know who this quote is from but someone quoted it to me once.
"Don't let what you can't do interfere with what you can do."
My favorite quote is " no good deed ever goes unpunished".
I remember that quote whenever I do something good for someone else. It almost always rings true... I still help out though!
skully, that is almost a John Wooden quote. I say almost but the only difference is that he said "do not" and "cannot" rather than "don't" and "can't". :) Doesn't really matter, eh? Anyway, it is a great quote and I thank you for reminding me of it. :)
BaldyLocks, thanks so much for this post. I am really enjoying all the positive quotes.
I'm a quotaholic. I especially love quotes from Albert Einstein like,
"The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources."
I love that!
Sorry, but I am a totally Simpsons freak
"Me fail English? That's unpossible." -Ralph
How about when Homer sings "I am so smart, S-M-R-T"
lol great quotes!
what about "What doesn't kill you, will make you stronger"
lol is that the quote? it's late here and I can't think! but I live by that one with two small boys!!
A mentor shared this with me during a difficult time and it has stuck with me -
"Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great."
- Mark Twain
The attitude of the company we keep is just as important as our own.
She who hesitates in the making of the hoop misses out on much wiggle time- Skully
Make some hoops! :o)
I like "what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger" as well!
And then of course,
"I'm a optimist with a pinch of cynicism and a dash of fuck you"
-ME!
So when do you determine the winner? Inquiring minds need to know! I didn't realize how many people posted quotes... that's what happens when you post first and then only look for new stuff!
XO
I was going to draw tonight but I actually went out with a friend so I will do it tomorrow.
I have good news, so I'm going to post it right now!
