GF and I were having this same discussion last night as she was cutting my hair. I'd ordered clippers from Amazon and received my first haircut in over 2 months. I desperately needed it.
I commented on how much people were re-discovering things that they should be doing for themselves. Haircuts are a basic and simple one. I've been cooking daily and luckily for me, I really enjoy cooking. GF says I'm quite good at it.
I fixed my 2003 GMC Envoy that needed all new coil packs, plugs, wires and an oil change a few weeks back. I'm quite technically adept so I've been fixing friends and neighbor's computers, something which I said I'd never do again some ten years ago.
Fixed my clothes dryer myself last month, learned how to sew buttons with my heavily arthritic fingers and more.
I hear more and more about people re-learning/re-discovering the things they can and should be doing for themselves. It's one of the few bright spots that's coming out of all this China virus bullshit.
I also have been cutting my own hair, cooking more more, and just ordered a bread machine to start making bread. Agree that the one of the only upsides of this pandemic.
