Lack of adult conversation is the biggest issue. The banter of a 2 year old high on goldfish crackers leaves me craving a bit more intellectual stimulation. Running out of projects.

Also rebuilt an old acoustic guitar adding a spider cone resonator and an electric pickup. Going to build a ukulele for the boy next.
