There’s nothing like being stuck at home all year to make you finally face up to the things you’ve been putting off. Everyone I’ve talked to has spent the summer doing home repairs or upgrades — that dining room you’ve just put up with for years, that spare bathroom that never looked right, the backyard trees that needed to be taken down — staying in place has given us the time to look around and see what needs to be fixed. We can’t just ignore it any more.
