We never stopped with the parties. Outside especially. Sure, we have an older crew here and some were extra careful, but it was mostly business as usual after the first 6 months or so. Especially when the vaccines rolled out.
We are almost complete on the renovation of this house. Pool tiles tomorrow, then new floor paint.
Last thing will be a roof, but it just got a clean bill of health 6 months ago. When insurance decides not to renew me, that's when the new roof happens. Lots of people on my block were forced to replace. I got a quote when we moved here - $30K - two years ago. People are paying $50-60K right now. I'll hold out.
I MIGHT consider self-insuring this place too. Everything is now hurricane proof - except the roof. Gonna go with metal if I'm allowed to.
