By early 00's I am talking about 2000-2003.

Timothy1964 11 months 21 days ago Posts: 511	I am not a huge fan of the 2000's, as I was of the 1980's and 1990's, especially after 9/11. I started "falling apart" financially by the summer of 2002, where I had to sell a lot of my possessions in order to pay my bills on time and the job I had between June 2002 and March 2004 was a real nightmare...12-hour rotating shifts and low pay. The job I had between May 2004 and March 2008 was somewhat better, but I was still struggling big time to make ends meet. I would say my best year of the 2000's was between the summer of 2008 and the summer of 2009, then things started falling apart again by the fall of 2009, where my house went into foreclosure and I had to do a quick sale. My house sold in February 2010 and I moved out and into a mobile home that March. Also, from just a couple of days after 9/11, until I sold my house and moved, I had a roommate living with me who very much made my life miserable. The only positive thing I can think of about the 2000's were my friends, who I often went into the city to visit almost every weekend, which I still do today. Indeed, I would NOT want to relive the 2000's!

Still, I can only piece together the 2000's by the major events of my life during that decade. Some details are forever preserved in the form of home movies, but a great deal I have forgotten. I look back on that decade as bittersweet. Still, I came out of it better off. A husband, a father, financially stable... all good things. All blessings.

Edgold707 11 months 15 days ago Posts: 474	For me, 9/11 and the Y2K bug are among the various events that define the 2000's. But we shouldn't forget Hurricane Katrina, The Boxing day Tsunami, The 7/7 London bombing, The Mumbai attacks, Flight 1549 ditching in the Hudson River, and President Obama's inauguration among other noteworthy events. I think some people will consider the 2000's as the best decade so far for their own reasons and others will not. On a lighter note, I still have the Y2K Bug on my computer:

Remember, the 90s were pretty "forgotten" or at least "ignored" during the 2000s..

They only appear to be "the only memorable things" because kids only remember the late 00s/early 10s and adults are nostalgic for the 90s or earlier.

Timothy1964 11 months 14 days ago Posts: 511	I often wonder what the 2000's would have been like, or how much different they would have been if 9/11 never happened...other than the fact that the twin towers in New York City would still be standing tall.

eddstarr88 11 months 14 days ago Posts: 6883	For me personally, the early years of the new century were dominated by the excitement and growth of the world-wide-web. I was on the shore looking out onto a vast, unexplored realm. My journey continues and I'm not sure what I / WE may find together.
