It's an adjustment, to be sure.
Good luck to her (and you).

Son at Tech (ME), daughter at ULL (Nursing/ NP).
There are trade offs to everything. But in the end, I believe the right choices were made.

Weren’t your plans to move? Where you headed?

As a proud 2X LSU Alum...
That is where my two kids that just moved are going. Well, the one going to Tech hasn't moved yet, but you get the point.
I have one more to go and she will no doubt be a full scholarship student somewhere, just not LSU if things do not change soon. I have three other close friends whose kids went to LSU last fall and they regretted it. Two have already transferred out despite good grades, etc.

It's weird man. The house feels kind of empty.
You and your wife can do it in any room in the house now any time the mood hits.

I raised two by myself. It was a huge hole when they left. But it passes.

Congrats man! Smart to take advantage of TOPS, get in, get a degree and secure a stable career without accumulating massive debt. Moving off to college first then you'll be paying for two wedding's my man

ever seen the campus?
So many great places to eat and hike.
SoHo Social was where we went just about every visit. Their taco restaurant is cool as well.

I think it kind of hit me this morning

You ever get up to Nashville you need to visit.

Oldest went to Samford for grad school. Amazing campus. Tight knit family atmosphere. Strong focus on faith was a plus.

We're paying everything TOPS doesn't cover so she should graduate debt free.

Ran into a guy moving his second into Samford at Starbucks the other week. All I can think about is how much that costs. Beautiful campus, lovely spot in Bham but man...

Great and sad day, all in one.
Posted on 8/22/26 at 9:50 am to fallguy_1978
Yep. Know the feeling. Mine just went back after being home this summer. It’s great to have them home though.

Oldest son just moved there to ULL today. Congrats on the nest being empty.

I’d prefer my kids not to go to either college and go somewhere out of state.
