Thank you all for your input. I don't feel so weird for leaving it up.

ita's thread
A place where we can talk about ita, miss ita, and share information about memorials. The hugging started over here in Natter.
I changed on Valentine's Day to my dad's picture because it was his birthday. I always have his picture on his birthday. Maybe I will start to wear pink gingham on ita's birthday.
I don't want anyone to feel bad about keeping or changing it. We are still going to remember her in all our own ways.
It is absolutely a whatever feels right thing, just as was changing it in the first place. For some it hurt more to change to pink. We all mourn in our own ways.
I'm with Strix, nothing has demanded a change, yet, so the gingham's still there.
This is my thinking.
Somehow, it was so comforting to see a line of pink gingham squares when we all had them up.
Yes, it was. I loved it.
I'm finally caught up to date on SPN, and although I still enjoy it, it is bittersweet.
I'm wearing a pink gingham dress to work today (which I bought in honor of ita a few weeks ago, but hadn't worn yet), which is definitely helping me get through the day. After two back-to-back twelve-plus hour days, the only things that got me to work at 6:45 this morning were a freezing cold shower and the pink gingham dress.
Looking for Like button. I heartily approve.
Pink gingham FTW!
That dress is so awesome, amyth. I really might have to get it.
