So hope that your foot is better.
I would love to wear a hat to Mass, but no other women do, so I would feel as if I was calling attention to myself.
Fondly remember the days when ladies and girls wore hats to church. I, too, miss seeing everyone make the extra effort to dress up for church and for other occasions.
I grew up in the suburbs of Baltimore, and, up until I was in college, we would not have dreamed of visiting Baltimore — going downtown — without dressing to the nines. We did not wear hats, but we wore heels and stockings and gloves with dresses or suits.
When I can go back to Mass, I am going to wear my hat. Unless the lady who wears the mantilla is there, I will be the only one.
It will be interesting to see what comments I get. I’ll just say I couldn’t come on Easter, so they are getting my Easter bonnet today. Hahaha.
