not because he was in trouble but because the parents had called the school to complain about their son's scuffed water bottle and wanted it replaced. They asked for $23. I wrote a check and was tempted to add a snarky comment, but I didn't. Yes, my son should keep his hands to himself, but the water bottle is still functional. My son apologized.

Igniting fireworks from the same spot repeatedly can seriously singe your lawn, which might end up needing replacing after just one night of fun. Although lawn itself might be relatively inexpensive, when you factor in the turf, labour and installation costs, this could end up costing you 15 per square metre. So for a UK average garden size of 50 square metres, you can expect to be set back by 750 in total.

Holiday decorations and celebrations seem to bring out the worst in many homeowners' associations.

I sheltered at home with my wife, and the wind and rain were so strong that we couldn't see anything. Outside our window, it was all just white - a white spray of water everywhere.
