I thought so, but wasn't sure as at RFK's funeral, there will still veils aplenty, but I assume that's a personal choice?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Pre-Vatican II, every woman had to wear a veil in church, right?

I think it was just that they had to cover their head.
I just got back from a massage. I may just lie around and be jelly all day.

I think girls did too, something to cover their head, but I'm not sure.
"Ava Maria" makes me cry, everytime.

Yeah, that's what I meant -- something on your head.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Aims, yeah, personal choice, plus RFK died very early in the post Vatican II era, and there were a lot of women who just didn't feel comfortable unveiled, even though they knew it was okay -- it was still just too new. I don't think I've seen anyone with a veil in at least the last five years, maybe ten, even at churches with large nun and little old lady contingents, but it took a long time for some people to adjust.

My friend Heather's family was very, very traditional Catholics and ignored a lot of the Vatican II stuff, such as covering your head. More than once I gave her crap for wearing a doily on her head.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Hooray, Grace!
Msbelle, I hope this is a big turning point for you and Mac.
I just caught up after a week of vacation! I've been working in northern Michigan for 15 summers and never had time to be a tourist, so I spent the past week doing just that. I have some photos up on FB, and some on Flickr. I'll link once I get more on Flickr.
