You're right Mark they do! They make a very satisfying WHUMP noise and break easily without any loss to anything that matters. I also find it therapeutic to tape them back together for "next time". I've been using the same 3 boxes for 13 weeks now and they really hardly resemble boxes anymore.

For me, I think the anger parts are because I have such a hard time expressing myself when really tired or upset. Kinda like a 2 year olds temper tantrum. Can't express it verbally, so out it comes physically.

Its been quite the learning process for my family, especially my husband. He used to follow me around and try to engage me when I was angry and that worked out poorly. Now I try to get something out that sounds like "box time" and off he goes, leaving me to get rid of my frustration. Its not a daily thing, but every couple weeks it seems to be box time.

Though this past weekend, with my parents visiting from out of town, there was a daily dose of box time. Luckily we have a good sized property, so I just took my boxes outside out of view of the house behind the machine shed.

And you might be right EsthersDoll, it might be fatigue that causes me to choose my battles. If it doesn't seem worth it, then shrug and off I go.... at least until I blow!

It seems the apathy / indifference happens more often than the anger, maybe that's a good sign?

I never would've guessed that falling on my head, would knock me on my behind!!
