We have two daughters. The youngest one just went off to college last August making us official empty nesters. At times it is difficult. Sometimes on a weekend or after work I find myself just looking at their rooms. They are not there, but so much of their childhood is still there. Pictures with friends, awards from school, trophies from playing sports, their beds and other random things that remind me of certain times of their lives. I have random memories of things when they were babies, or 5 years old, or 15 years old and I think to myself....wow that seems like a different lifetime now. Was that even really my own life back then or just someone else?

Best thing I can tell younger parents is to learn to hold on to moments as they pass. We all think about the future way too much and miss the present.

It's not all bad though when they grow up. Not at all. My wife and I feel a deep sense of pride and accomplishment seeing them all grown up now. They are both well adjusted young women forging a great life for themselves. Somehow we did something right along the way. And that's a great feeling.

I'm not a mechanic, but I would surmise that driving around on a tire with dry rot is probably a very bad idea.

I would like to have a meaningful comment on all the threads here tonight. But I timed my drinking around a 6:00 start time after work and now it’s 10:00 and my wife wont leave me alone.

Home run or strike out.

Nice jinx.

I’m with you bro. Only thing that saved me was that I boiled shrimp for some company and you have to eat it hot. Now I’m full but still have room for some Tito’s

Absolutely absurd

It would seem he’s struggling to hit.

This is going to be a fun post season. I’m looking forward to it.

He does not love LSU. This is a PR campaign for him just like his commercials and billboards. It gets him publicity, and most of all, more clients. It is what it is, I guess.
