This is a little Jubbling but it’s mostly rooted in cheap. My son had a band concert last week and needed dress shoes and I wasn’t about to go purchase a new temporary pair for him. His feet are still growing, his concerts are infrequent and Jubbling is still grossing about $3.24 per week. So I did what any Jubblinger would do – I took out a pair of my old penny loafers, put in some insoles and asked him to put on two pairs of thick socks. Paired with a clip-on tie and white shirt and my son looked just like the rest of the 7th grade band and he was totally cool with it. As I was getting him set with the shoes, we must’ve repeated “this is pretty Jubbling huh?” atleast 10 times.
Honestly, my only concern was that he’d have to move quickly and possibly lose a shoe but this was orchestra stuff and not marching band. For marching band, I’d just have him wear three pairs of thick socks.
This weekend, my daughter Amanda and her friend Maggie decided to make cat toys again. This time, their toy making materials included twine, toilet paper wrapper, a little tape and a pencil to draw eyes. It’s hilarious to see the results because they not only spend time studying how their respective cats play but they also factor in what they know about how cats hunt in the wild and then meet up to develop the toys.
