Welcome to Litsy!

I just wanted to post to say thank you to all of you for your kind words and Litsy love you have shown me, as well as to share my thoughts.
Was I angry? Yes, for all about a minute. Then I realized that this is not something to waste my energy being angry over.
I honestly wish this person nothing but the best and hope she finds what she needs to make her happy. Rest In comments. However, ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

It does make you wonder what role unionizing played in this🤔

You guys!!!! Look what @Chrissyreadit has gotten for me for our #coffeebeanbookclub!!! I am in total love with all the unicorn stuff and especially the gorgeous MUG! Thank you ever so much! I love it all! Happy Halloween to all! #cbbc #cbbc3 @Mommamanzi

#bookmarkswap @LibrarianRyan I am so thankful for the amazing package I got from @Crazeedi - Diane you really outdid yourself! Thank you so much for spoiling me🤗

Hey guys! Opening day is upon us and I still have a ton of people I haven‘t heard from. Part of that is because Litsy stopped sending me notifications for two weeks. It was wild. Anyways. PLEASE LEAVE ME A COMMENT that states if you have/haven‘t sent your package AND if you have/haven‘t gotten a package. Thank you!!! Seriously you guys are all amazing, thank you so much. #ThankfulForBooksSwap

Just signed up for the #ThankfulForBooksSwap. I'm so excited about my swaps. Have I mentioned I love giving and receiving gifts?

Thank you to all of the Admins working hard to keep Litsy going! I love this book community, and I appreciate all of your hard work. I'm still fairly new here, so I don't know who all of the Admins are, but thanks @TimSpalding and @kgriffith!

Thank you for being awesome, @cobwebmoth!

Should I win your #chooseyourowngiveaway I'd take the gift card.

Thanks everyone!!! 🤗😬🤗😆

I am a day late posting this but I did pick a winner yesterday for #AwesomeLittenGiveaway. Thank you to everyone who entered. I loved seeing all the nominations. The love and positivity was inspiring!!!

The winners are @TricksyTails and @robinb!!!!!! 🎉🎉🎉 Thank you both for being #AwesomeLittens!!!!

The magnificent @MinDea is doing a #giveaway 😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻! The #AwesomeLittenGiveway is on a roll! Not much time left to share your thoughts on who you find to be some awesome Littens in the #LitsyFamily 😊🙌🏻.

@BookBabe is the most awesome Litten for me. She is my soulmate, she has more positive adjectives about her than can be found in the dictionary, and she's the one who introduced me to Litsy. Love you! 😍😍😍😍

@Amy-Laura came up to London to go book shop crawling in Bloomsbury with me in July. She was the first Litten I met in person and we had a wonderful bookish day together. She might not post on here often, but she's a wonderful person.
Amy, I still remember us diving into Skoob Books as if we were going treasure hunting.

@MinDea #AwesomeLittenGiveaway

I‘ve now absolutely got to tag @TricksyTails in the #AwesomeLittenGiveaway - she just sent me the sweetest email ever because she knows things are crappy for me (I promise to respond soon), and I‘m so grateful for you and all the sweet comments you‘ve already made on my posts! 💓💓💓
PS. Your pup and her eyes looking up like that remind me of my now-gone Tasha (wolf-Shepherd mix) 😻
#PayItForward

Thank you to @MinDea for hosting this great #giveaway where we get to praise & support other Littens! Check out her post for more info

For the #AwesomeLittenGiveaway, there are so many wonderful people I could tag, but I want to acknowledge @robinb
On my birthday she made me this super nice post wishing me a great day & I felt like we hadn't even communicated much before that. It completely surprised me, made my day, and made me love Litsy more.

Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉on your milestone @MinDea I am thankful for so many awesome Littens that it's hard to choose just one #commonproblem I'm especially grateful to @KassKho for her work organizing #Canadagoespostal and connecting me with more fantastic Littens #theCanadiantour

✨The awesome @MinDea reached the 1k milestone and decided to celebrate by doing a #giveaway! Congratulations and thanks for doing this! 🎉📚👏
✨I've met alot of amazing Littens, but I went back to a certain emotional post about my LeeLand who I had to put to sleep and decided to tag @Bostonmomx2 for her kind words during a rough time. There's tons of others I could also tag! 💜💜

@MinDea #AwesomeLittenGiveaway
How can I enter this giveaway without mentioning YOU? I seriously don‘t know how to enter without sounding like a suck-up. When you asked if you could help me on Thanksgiving and emailed me, I seriously wanted to cry. I‘ve not been so touched by anybody reaching out to me in a long time, and because you‘re here in #Seattle, I know we are going to meet up soon. Because things at home are difficult, I‘m so grateful 💖

@MinDea - you are one of the wonderful Littens I‘ve met! I love that you reached one007 followers. Thank you for this giveaway, and thank you for organizing the #LitsyBuddyRead, along with @Jess7 . The two of you come up with some wonderful choices to read, as well as thought-provoking questions every Sunday. So the person I am honoring in this post for the #AwesomeLittenGiveaway is @Jess7 , but give yourself a pat on the back too!!

I hit 1K!!! 💖💖 As a thank you I am going to do a #Giveaway.

To enter tag me, #AwesomeLittenGiveaway and tell me about some of the wonderful Littens you have met since joining this community and why they are AWESOME! I know there are so many so feel free to do as many posts as you want but please only one litten per post. The winner and the tagged Litten will each win something 😍😀😄 Winner will be picked on Wednesday 12/13 eod #PayItForward

Ahhhhh @Tiffy_Reads great minds think alike! We picked the same totes for our swaps! I laughed so much when I saw that, but I absolutely love it! All of your goodies are wonderful (I'm a huge In the Wick of Time fan) and the books are so intriguing! I can't wait to dive in. Thank you so much! (Also, I didn't realize you're in Indiana - I lived in Bloomington for six years and miss it very much.)

#booktoteswap @cobwebmoth Thanks for organizing!

Pulling from the lyrics to show my thankfulness today for my Litsy family! You all make my days more special! ❤️ I hope everyone celebrating Turkey Day (and those who aren‘t) has a wonderful day!

Clearly my daughter 😁

You are awesome @britt_brooke and congrats on 150k! #150kgiveaway

By the time I took the screenshot one more person had liked something. Thank you, Littens, for all the love you've shown me these past months. 😘

I'm thankful for my family, friends, a good meal, good books, and this pretty kitty.

#photoadaynov16 Day 24 There are so many things to be thankful for. I'm always thankful for my husband, family, friends, my cat and books. This year I'm thankful my husband and I did our own thing and just got away for a few days. We have had 2 nights of great music (James McMurtry, left and Slaid Cleaves, right) and today we are just having a a lazy day. I hope everyone is having a wonderful day. I love all of my fellow Littens! ❤️#thankfulfor

#thankfulfor realizing that even in most arid places there's still beauty and peacefulness. Glad to be alive, to have a family, both human and feline, wonderful friends, to be sorrounded by books and of course so thankful for the wonderful Litsy community where I can fully express and share my bookish passions with such amazing lovely people! 💜💜📚📚📚
Best wishes to all!
Special thanks to @Lola for introducing me to Litsy! 💜
#photoadaynov16

#Thankfulfor these guys. #Raisingreaders with my awesome hubs has been one of the most exciting journeys I could have imagined (outside of a rollicking trip to Narnia. If someone wants to hook me up with a Magic wardrobe for #secretsantagoespostal I am all in 😉).

I am thankful for SO MANY things, but here are a few of the ones I am thinking about right now...I'm thankful for my 3 dogs (and all dogs everywhere), family, museums & art, nature/outdoors (especially Limekiln State Park pictured here, middle row left), travel & NYC, hockey, vegan friends & Disneyland, plants, especially beautiful flowers, New York City Ballet, my favorite theater & ballet in general. #photoadaynov16

Very #thankfulfor where I live: the country, the people, the sense of community, and this view out my window. I think I'd be lost this past year without my family and friends. #photoadaynov16
