Today, Al and I were cleaning up his room. We happened to find a birthday card that an old girlfriend/now friend had sent him. He asked if I wanted it thrown away.  Someone explain why that made me so happy.  (And yes, it did get thrown away)
One year becomes two, two years becomes five, five becomes ten and before you know it, you've wasted your whole life on a problem you can't solve. That's one way to spend your life. -rwinger
I will not spend my life this way.

Someone explain why that made me so happy. (And yes, it did get thrown away) For boundaries and taking care of each other. YOU know why it makes you happy. Yes you do.

Of course I do. We haven't had any "issues" of this sort before. Maybe that's why it made me so giddy.
