many people have been reflecting back on the 2000’s – it’s amazing how much is achieved in 10 years, but i guess that’s no surprise as it *is* a whole decade afterall!
here is how my 2000’s went :
2000 = Sydney Olympics + went full time with the company is still work for + met Regan
2001 = started blogging + round the world trip planned + 9/11 + round the world trip cancelled + fell in love with Regan
2002 = met Regan in person for the first time + turned 21 + Regan starts the long migration/visa process + met John Mayer (ok not a life altering thing, but yeah it happened)
2003 = got engaged + started sh1ft.org photography projects + Regan’s visa is approved + Regan moves to Sydney + moved out of home
2004 = got married + my first USA trip + Mischa enters our life

i have a few hours to myself today (hooray for grandma’s!) so i ducked down to the shops to see what nonsense i could buy on sale.. here’s what i’ve picked up
1. Dotti strapless dress. $19.95. I saw this before Xmas and was going to get it for the original price of $79.95 but the money saver in me said to KEEP WALKING. I’m glad that I did! I really love the pattern and it’s not too short, thankfully for everyone around me, haha.
2. Target strappy heels. I’ve been looking for a pair like them and couldn’t resist the markdown. $20 from $50! Now where to go ..
3. Diva – cute headband and a new fake diamond ring (I still don’t fit into my wedding and engagement rings!!). Both $5 each.
4. Dead Set from Borders. OK, not on sale but hard to find
5. Dotti gold leaf belt to match the dress and other things 🙂 $15 from $20
6. WesternBloc’s VisualGram door stopper – $4.95. We have the Elephant version and it works WONDERS for little boys who love to slam doors…
7. A blue/white/pink icecream looking singlet.. just cause it looks tasty! $10
8. Last but not least, a Michael Jackson Thriller T Shirt from Target for $15. I didn’t think it was part of the sale so was happy to pay the full $30! I had a blue version as a kid but my mum didn’t save it.
so that’s it for me! no more shopping — apart from new computer speakers and maybe a new lamp for my office… i may have to stay indoors for the rest of the week to properly resist the urge 😛
Did you get anything in the sales?
