April 2018

Nick and I started a new show this month on Netflix, "Fastest Car".  We watch most of an episode each evening, up until the final race of the show, then save it as a cliffhanger for the next evening.  His car passion comes and goes (it's not like his laptop, which never gets old.)  Out of the blue, he drew an engineering-like design for windshield wipers with better coverage.  We played a racing video game at Dave and Busters when we hung out with Dawn and Phil, but he was more into the Jurassic Park games.  I'm just trying to keep him active, like outside shooting baskets and riding his scooter.


I asked Nick to peel himself away from the laptop long enough to dry dished and fold laundry, which I found him a half hour later under the warm laundry pile, asleep on his bed.  Not that he isn't helpful, he awoke one morning and made me breakfast before work... although I'm not as into burnt garlic toast in the morning as he is.

Most of this month was lost on our house, having it ripped apart from bad OSB, so Nick spends a fair amount of time at home alone since we don't drag him over to the house with us every time.  He's capable of a little independence, again with the laptop keeping him distracted.

Nick at the Beach

This is just a great set of images of Nick at the beach over the years. Certainly not the only instances, as we've been to Clearwater Beach a couple of times as well, but the poses are coincidental, and fit together perfectly.
