How much time have you already spent worrying about and
fiddling with this stupid faucet, when you could actually do
something about something else, like the weeds.

We've already mowed the weeds down, propped up the falling fence, fixed a
leaking faucet, installed new locks, and a host of other small
improvements. We enjoy doing home improvements so we've had fun fixing the
little things even if it doesn't make any difference in the selling price.
These small improvements don't cost much and I enjoy the challenge of
trying to solve odd problems like the tub spout.

Yes, we need to sell the house, and there are bigger projects we won't have
the time or money to get to. But why not fix the small things we can. We
are spending a fair amount of time at the house, so we benefit from the
small improvements we've done.
