Tyler is all moved in.

This past weekend, Karen Tyler and I packed up and flew back to North Carolina but only Karen and I returned. Tyler moved into his new home away from home at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. His room-mate Logan, a friend from high school, actually moved the lion share of his stuff into the room a couple of days before. We stored his stuff in their garage before we moved west.

Friday night Tyler was supposed to go to Marching band rehearsal. After some confusion he was able to connect up with the right folks so he could start practice Saturday Morning. We dropped him back at his dorm where he and Logan spent the evening setting up their new abode.

Saturday night Karen and I ran a Toothbrush and TV cable to him and to wish him the best before we headed back to Texas Sunday morning. He had a long day and was in less than a great mood. He felt clueless about what was going on with marching band since he missed the first two days of practice. Tyler very much likes organization and having a plan. And it bugs him if things are confused and he is powerless to do anything about it. Plus He had a band dinner to go to and would rather have just jelled in his dorm. That's my take on what had him on edge anyway.

Karen and I got his TV hooked up, attempted to quickly help with a furniture arranging issue and said our goodbyes. It was a little rough for both Karen and I. And perhaps a little for Tyler, who know. But we are both excited for him at the same time. I think he will really enjoy the college experience. Not just the social part but Tyler seems to get pure enjoyment out of learning.

So the best of luck to goes out to Tyler. Ask Bob, If you e-mail or keep your IM away message up to date we wont call ya so often and bug you!
