'll chime in and hope to give you comfort that you're not alone. Not the same situation as you and I'm a few years behind you (coming up mid 40s) but where I'm struggling right now is being stuck yearning for a situation that doesn't exist. I love the ages my kids are at right now and everything with them is a blast but my oldest will be in high school next year and I can feel that time with all of us together slipping away. Because of that I hate going to work everyday, even though it's simple work and affords me a great deal of time off, because it keeps me from doing what I want to be doing which is enjoying our time together. So I keep longing to be able to retire even though it's like 15 years away and when that time comes nothing will be like it is now and presumably (and I guess hopefully lol) my kids will be off doing their own thing and I'll be longing for these days.

Wow - this just hit home very real and hard. I turn 42 tomorrow with 12 and 8 year old boys. On paper I’m in a good place, but Im at a point where I feel like I’m having to choose between my job or my family. I’ll choose my family every time, but the effect on the job will ultimately impact my family. I’m terrified on the speed of life now - months go by in the blink of an eye, and the stress to make it happy for everyone has taken a huge toll on me to where I can’t enjoy it. The great big ironic catcher-22 of life

No - he doesn’t deserve one on his athletic achievements alone. But with all the portal/nil crap, and now that Dylan has made the NBA when no one thought he would, I really think he should get a statue at Auburn as the quintessential “student-athlete” and ambassador of the university. He could have transferred and done all the stuff, but he stayed loyal to the university that gave him a chance and he loves it. In today’s world, I think it should be celebrated.

That is a large man

Good grief

He was one that we thought we may flip out of HS.

The buzz is Boston College for Deuce

So Texas forced out Parker Livingston to make room for Cam.

What great irony would it be for him to come to AU and become an All American

Seems like you are a little more tame now. Funny how everyone said to wait until the portal actually opened before freaking out.

MOAR

For the love of jang, can we not go here.

Robby fricking sucked

You started a thread trying to be cheeky about Auburn QBs, whilst your own is a fricking bloody vagina.

Stop

Looks better than Ty Simpson for sure

You want to create apathy in a fanbase? Say that your ceiling is 9 wins. That was the bullshite that was spewed for decades at Ole Miss. And that’s exactly what it is. bullshite. Especially at a place with the resources Auburn has

Pretty sure he’s talking about the short-term and not decades like Ole Miss. Just like your success is very likely to be short term and OM will fall back to its historical place, and probably pretty soon.
