I have the nice soft knitted kneepads as well as the heavy duty rubber ones with the gelpads inside . . . my old catcher's pads from my softball days would probably show even under a floor length skirt!

I do wear Clark ("sensible") sandals, but not the little abbreviated ones! I do keep my feet clean and my nails trimmed short, but I am 52 years old and have never had a pedicure, I think I may have had nail polish on my hands twice in my life . . . . between dogs, horses, and playing the piano, even a manicure would be COMPLETELY wasted on me. Let alone a pedicure.

I have no knee pads, ladies. I’ll just “offer it up” as the nuns used to say.

I wonder what it was like kneeling on the bare stone floor sans pews of Notre Dame de Paris for 2 hours at a Pontifical High Mass in Paris in 1688 during the month of “Aout” (August)?

Sacre bleu!
