Words don’t adequately convey how stoked I am for this! 😃 Haven’t seen these people in person in 15 years! While it’ll be something of a downer that they are ahead of me in life mostly, it’s gonna be nice to show I’m still fighting!

I had my 25th over the summer and it was a great time! I’m not a huge fan of Facebook but I have to admit it was instrumental in locating alot of people. I wouldn’t worry about where you are in life, it’s where you are going that is important.  
I didn’t settle down until I was almost 40, some were ahead of me, some behind, some starting over, etc…

Remember to take your clothes off before you bathe…

Agree 100% with what I bolded! I’m getting back on my journey to a more normal life.

Just had my 15th two months ago. I stay in touch with a few friends, but most I had not seen since my 10th, and many I hadn’t seen since graduation. I had a total blast. Have fun!

I had my 40th last year. Lots of fun, but I went to a small school and many of us knew each other from grade school.
