Never Doubt

At home. Have my nephew over for 3 days trying to figure out what he likes. Building a cool new concept in my mind. I can see it now taking shape and can imagine that were going to have something pretty cool when it all comes together. How long can this go on?

No Worries . . .

Staring out the window at the world that surrounds me in this little place that I like to call home. Parents are going to be visiting so thinking about that. Stealing a little bit of shuteye on the sly I have to admit - but that aint so bad. Will we ever get a hold of the craziness?
