Dear Brooke,
Today is your birthday. 36! Congratulations. Considering some of the moronic shit you've done in these past 3 decades it's actually a miracle you are still alive! (really- backroading?? just because there isn't much to run in to out in the middle of nowhere doesn't mean you can't get yourself killed drinking and driving..and all that peeing in the road!) Not to mention the abundant amount of talking to strangers, bad Internet dating, swimming after eating, and overall general shenanigans that have resulted in an unknown amount of liver damage. So it's generally believed that if you've made it this far you're probably not going anywhere anytime soon. (but your liver kindly asks to keep it in mind the next time someone yells SHOTS!)
But it's time to get serious. 36 means a lot of things. It's an age where the body wants to start a downward spiral and it will happen, but let's not allow it free range with the gas pedal. SPF, working out, healthy food, less alcohol, lots of peace of mind, and laughter.
Goals for the next 36 years-
love
laugh
take risks
enjoy your family (the one you were born into and the one you created)
give it your best shot
always be true to who you are
stop worrying what size pants you wear
be "all in"
never lose your spirit of adventure
All my love,
the one and only you
