I go to Mass almost every morning and over the last 18 months I've forgotten what my acquaintances look like or what their voices sound without the muffling.

It was shocking to see how they all aged. One woman, new to me this year, is someone I would have guessed to be about 35. Mask off - closer to 50+!

BTW, the old folks were the first to rip them off. Sadly, my close friend, a retired RN, chose to keep hers on. Sort of like a security blanket.
