Do you have an extra cup like that laying around that? If you do, see if they will play with it. If you do not, you can choose option a and tell everyone within 100 miles not to do that again. This can also be done if option b does not have the result you desire.

There is absolutely no way we could afford private school especially since my wife is looking to retire next year after this final delivery order ends. She is working on getting Nationally Certified and wants to get hired on by one of the local ambulance companies as an EMT. Even with her retirement pay, she will still take a huge hit money-wise. (will help on taxes though).

DO YOU:

A) empty the cup in the sink and then throw cup in trash

B) since you are not the one who left it there, and you will not be the first one up in the morning, you leave it there as a friendly reminder as to why it is important to not leave cups like this on the counter

C) if option B is chosen, there is the additional chance that one of the alarm will find it at some point in the night and make it a further point as to why you do not leave cups like this on the counter
A

Don't be passive aggressive.

Am a big public school advocate but many private schools have financial aid availability.

And with her working as an EMT a lot have first responder tuition rates.

Ya might have to have the firefighters come do a show once a year, but ya can swing it.

The Christian Academy in Waldorf is $9698 a year plus other fees.

The one in White Plains is $8113 a year plus other fees.

Not cheap.

Seems high but I guess it depends on the area. My son goes to one and it is less than $3k a year. We belong to the church and he does get a scholarship which helps out on the cost. He is now a freshman and been there since K4. Best move we ever made. only about 50 students enrolled in the academy

My sister emailed me saying that someone was murdered in their housing development. Apparently the person was not a neighbor or someone they knew, but still...

It is very muggy at the campsite. It is also moldy. Lots of leaves down already and there has been a ton of rain here. It is not a good combo for my lung disease. Still hanging a nice time. Walked almost 10k steps.
