Welcome to Litsy!

Early birthday Present from my roommate Tina. She told me I was hard to shop for...😂😂 Obviously not, she knew the “Hogwarts is my home”bracelet was on my wish list. #birthdays #bookbabe35

I‘m a huge Potter fan...I wore my Slytherin sweater to work today. I rock a Slytherin lanyard at work...and now I‘m thinking of buying this custom made skirt for my blogger photos. It‘s just so damn cute. Of course I need to see if it can be made in plus sizes....🥰 #bookbabe35 #harrypotter

Another blast from the past.....Spice world. It‘s hard to believe that I was 13 when this movie came out?! Is it bad that this movie is now 22 years old and I still love it! 😂🤣. Also, this album was everything! (“Never Give up on the good times” is still my jam)! BTW Scary and Ginger where my favorite Spice Girls! #thespicegirls #bookbabe35 #memorylane #melb #scaryspice #gerihalliwell #gingerspice

@backstreetboys where literally one of the many reasons my family teased me in my pre-teen and teen years. I was a girl obsessed. Posters on every wall and the ceiling to. I was no joke when it came to my guys. I‘m 35 and I still have the first @nickcarter poster I ever taped on my wall 🥰. #bookbabe35 #backstreetboys #celebrating35yrsofMe

One of my favorite moments of the past few years was the completion of my Masters degree. It was a full circle moment for me. A moment I‘ve never regretted. If only I had a nice cushy job in my field....kicking ass and taking names. Even without the job I don‘t regret one moment of my Grad education. #bookbabe35 #masters #bloggerlife

Next up...the Shows that got me through college. Both times. Grey‘s was everything for YEARS. I sadly gave it up after Cristina‘s exit. And really stopped watching after Derek‘s death. Torchwood started my obsession with BBC America. And lead to my love of Doctor Who. I‘m still a Huge Supernatural Fan; Dean is Bae. All the rest are bad ass...if you get a chance to watch Sanctuary you should it‘s sooooo goood! #syfy #bookbabe35 #reading

90‘s tv had to be some of the best stuff ever. It‘s kind of weird to think that most of my favorite shows aren‘t something most of those younger than me have ever seen. #bookbabe35 #clarissaexplainsitall #blossom #thenanny #dinosaurs #fullhouse #familymatters #disney #bookbabe35

Of course my countdown really begins with a quote..this one remains the one that is closest to my heart. I have always believed in the goodness of all. I‘ve always believed that everyone deserves a chance to let their goodness shine; even when they‘ve shown me their worse. Some people close to me see this as one of my weaknesses. I think it‘s a strength of mine. #annefrank #bookbabe35 #annefrank #livingwithpurpose

Today marks the 40th day until my 35th Birthday. I want to take these forty days to re-introduce myself. Share all the things I‘ve loved along the way; everything from books, to music, to people. I believe my 35th year will be a magical and beautiful one. I‘m so ready to hit my mid-30‘s.....I‘m leaning into them hard and with as much poise and grace as God will allow. I‘ll be using #Bookbabe35 on these posts. #livingwithpurpose
