Dear Prudie: I'm wracked with guilt.
My brother’s first wife, “Lynn,” was my dearest friend and my daughter’s namesake. She was murdered, and the killer was never caught. This has devastated our family for decades. My brother is in his mid-40s now and remarried. I liked my new sister-in-law “Karen” until she requested I redecorate my house. I was an artist in my youth; some of my best works involve Lynn and my daughter. I have them scattered through our home.
The topic has not come back up, but my brother has rejected invitations to visit over the summer and will be missing the celebration for my daughter going off to college. I asked my brother if staying at a motel rather in my home would make Karen more comfortable. He stuttered and ended the call. My brother has come to every major life event for all my children. He is especially close to my daughter. I have a wedding picture of my brother and Karen on the wall with the rest of the family photos.

However, they note no system is perfect. Court documents show Greene violated a PFA filed by a family member early in January by showing up to the home, days after it went into effect.

Home renovation projects that can help sell your houseTo help homeowners get an idea of what home renovation projects will be the most valuable, Extra Space Storage analyzed data from Zonda Media’s 2021 Remodeling Cost vs. Value Report to determine the 10 home renovation projects with the highest percentage of their job costs recouped, or the highest return on investment. To determine the 2021 results, the report used data from 2017-19 on common projects done by about 200,000 home renovation professionals and that can be priced accurately, which is why products with specific styles or finishes, or projects whose price is determined by specific region or climate, are not included. The analysis applies a statistical model to the older data that’s based on recent construction cost estimates and economic indicators — such as income, employment, and market housing — to create the best 2021 estimate of a renovation project cost and its resale value.
