Yeah. 5 years, how can that be?
Ah, the pitter patter of tiny feet in huge combat boots. Shut 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 am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Yes, my FB memories were saddening today.

Thanks for the warning gang, I avoided facebook last night. Sad memories + migraine would not have been a good combination.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
It doesn't seem possible that it was 5 years ago, but I was pregnant with ltc at the time. So, somehow the math works.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.
In light of the most recent episode of Doctor Who and the mother of the actor in question being Jamaican, I thought "ita would be rampaging through the thread singing, and then looking for someone to make her a coat." And oh, the hunt for the right glasses . . . .

I avoid FB like the plague, except for my kids and the Buffistas, so I got missed by that. What I did get was an e-mail from the memorial archive for her. I did go look to reread some of the things people had posted about her. ita was such a strong personality, she could never be forgotten, but it's always nice to be reminded of just how remarkable she was to others besides us.

I just felt like I needed to post here to celebrate our new Jamaican VP. Miss you, ita!

I've been thinking about that too.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Thinking about ita today.
