Welcome to Litsy!

Slowly managing to retrieve my pictures from my broken laptop's hard drive.

Meet Nifl, our late darling snowflake aka teddy hamster. ❄️❄️❄️
The name came from Niflheim, the snowy realm from Norse mythology.
He was an absolute darling.

My sweet little friend Fern died unexpectedly yesterday. She was just about the nicest hamster ever - she never bit me and she was okay with cuddles. It's hard to like hamsters because they don't have long lives, but they're so worth it. I loved everything about her. #hamstersoflitsy

@Readergrrl it's here it's here!!! Special appearance by Fern. #littlechristmasswap @bookish_wookish #hamstersoflitsy

Thank goodness I ordered delivery for dinner because I did nothing today besides watch the virtual Gilmore Girls Fan Fest online and would never have opened my door to see this #allhallowsreadswap excitement waiting for me! Bonus #hamstersoflitsy in the background.

This picture has made me laugh so hard that I can't stop sharing it on social media (apologies for cross-posting). This is my official 40th birthday portrait, ridiculously captured by my sister. Fern was going NUTS and I'm so glad I got something where she's sitting still. Thanks to my dear Litsy family for the love on this unusual birthday! #hamstersoflitsy

I'm behind on posting the #cozyinthesun winner (to come later tonight!) because I had the opportunity to drive out of state to get this little friend last weekend! This is Fern. #hamstersoflitsy

I had to say goodbye to my little buddy Richard today. Some of you met him in real life and know how wonderful he was. I got him at the end of one of the hardest years of my life, and he made every day happier for me. I loved him so so so much. #hamstersoflitsy

Today's #readathon hasn't gone as expected! I was worried last night about an infected-looking spot on Richard, and thankfully the vet could fit him in this morning. He's fine now, and I can finally get to my book. Watching a hamster get a tiny tiny exam isn't a bad way to spend the morning, though. :) #hamstersoflitsy

I've been a bit stressed this week because Richard jumped from a good height and injured his legs. I've been worried about his lethargy, but today he seems more like himself. Also good: I got to see tiny tiny hamster x-rays - which they take with dental equipment!!! - and I really loved this Gothic perfection of a book. #hamstersoflitsy #pop18 #childhoodclassicyouneverread #booked2018 #spookyread @Cinfhen @BarbaraTheBibliophage @4thhouseontheleft
