Thank you Neck, I accept that!!

We have had a very bumpy few years but no matter how hard things get, we have each other, and we have our faith in God. I'm just ready to see EASY for awhile - talk about refiner's fire and I can testify!!

Ha! Then what was the first year of the First Century? :D

Re: So we're about to head into 2010
 

No, no, no, you count 2000 as the and not the beginning. 1 is the beginning.

Re: So we're about to head into 2010
 

The first day of the year 2000 to the end would be the first year, wouldn't it? Just like your first birthday means you've lived one year?

So 2000 to 2001 would be the first year?

When I turn 10, I've lived 10 years.

the past decade brought events that absolutely broke my heart and events that caused me to shout with joy. God provided all that I needed in every event and I know He'll continue.

Re: So we're about to head into 2010
 

And... even if it is 1995... the past decade is STILL the past decade. We are not required to wait until 2000, 2001, 2100 or 3052 to use the term. :)
