Shoes.

The other day, my son could not find his shoes before he left for school. It is below freezing most every day this time of year. He can not just wear some summer slippers as he generally does when he loses his shoes. I honestly did not know that he was down to one pair.

So I had this great idea. We would go shoe shopping (DO not worry. I am a really good "finder"  and found his shoes for him before he had to catch the bus to school,   BUT!!) and solve this problem for now.

We went to three shops and finally found the boy three pairs of shoes. Hopefully, this NEXT panic attack with be set off for a bit and he will always be able to find some shoes to wear to school.  Going to three places, at Christmastime, trying to find shoes for this enormous kid's feet, is a fucking nightmare!!  So be it.

I succeeded.

My boy has new shoes.
U
Men in New Orleans are generally shorter than the average US male and the shoe sizes run smaller too.  PA wears a 14 extra wide and doesn't understand why I'm always looking for shoes for him.  Silly man.

THAT'S A LARGE FOOT!

My fifteen year old son wears twelve EEE and he is still growing. He is around one hundred ninety pounds and about my height at five eleven. Decent sized boy.

Buying shoes for him is already becoming difficult. I would hate to have to find a fourteen size wide shoe.

... but hey! I will do my best, even if it means ordering shit online and returning half of them or whatever.

I'm reduced to hunt and peck typing, which I hate, on this tablet.  Even the removable keyboard is awkward.
