Seeing as the "Noughties" (horrible term, that) are coming to the end, what is your top moment of the last ten years?

Mine is meeting my boyfriend back in 2002 (internet)/2003 (real life)

I turned 20 at the end of 1999 so the last decade for me was about being a 20-something: not anymore a poor student with no money to my name, but also no big responsibilities (like children or big mortgages). What could be better? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

my daughter was born 9.15am 30th September, 2002

(after losing the baby due 23rd March, 2002)

and discovering that I was allowed to do something for myself, and therefore beginning piano lessons, which has led to the big wide world of music (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piano.gif)

It's been a decade of such extremes that I guess the highs stick out even more....

Restarting learning the recorder in 2003, finally cracking the grade 7 gremlin in 2004, reaching that only-ever-dreamed-of grade 8 in 2005, ATCL in 2006, LGSMD in 2008, the two latter being beyond anything ever dreamed of. Joining the fora and meeting some fantastic fellow musicians and making some very good friends who mean a lot well beyond the music too. Being invited to YAP and APs wedding belongs in there as well.

Edit: goodness me, how could I forget? Playing Bach's fourth Brandenburg Concerto, a dream of some twenty years' standing. Highlight of a lifetime, that (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif).

I'll not go into the lows. Suffice it to say that they've none of them been linked with music, whereas most of the highs have (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif).
