    My brother and his wife visited over the weekend so we did some major cleaning and I had to break down and throw into the recycling bin several perfectly useable moving boxes that have been sitting around for a year “in case I needed boxes”. Then I learned when they arrived that they were moving to a new place soon and could’ve used the ones I threw out.

      That’s some “Gift of the Magi”-level stuff right there. “Oh dang, I threw away a bunch of boxes yesterday!” “Oh no, we were going to help you clean your house!”
