There's a slow wearing down of a woman's resolve that is miraculously possible.  The main rule is always clean up after yourself...above all else follow this rule. 

It's taken years, starting with baby steps...but persistence is key.  I didn't start out my marriage brain tanning elk hides in the bathtub,  I assure you, but at this point, my lovely wife just closes the door to hide the smell and asks when she can have her tub back  ;D

When you feel better, just peel a couple of shoots for shafts in the living room while watching tv.  Make sure to clean thoroughly.  Work on building that trust.  Before you know it you'll not only be tillering bows in the nice cozy indoors...you'll be using her crock pot to keep hide glue warm and sinew backing in the kitchen. >:D

OOPS!  Forgot about the dust factor!  BOOM, :(!  Maybe an electric heater, or an exhaust fan, along with a dust collector.  Got to set up a DC in my shop, but it has an exhaust fan, just have to remember to turn it on when sanding.

Well, re: covid - too many have died, period.  Re: building trust, flowers and chocolate help a lot, cleaning up even more!  Be sure to spread newspaper to catch the shavings and vacuum!

Btw, make her a bow, too!

Yes that's a bad situation for sure.  I really feel sorry for all the people who have suffered from this and especially for all the health care workers who have to deal with it.  We're not so bad up here, although that is changing now with all the idiots partying over the holidays
