I've commented before

on the odd pleasure derived from crossing things off to do lists. While the one at work at the moment is rather formidable, the home list has become rather tame. Little chores attended to today that I could cross off the list include fix the door frame of the master bedroom closet; bring furniture from deck to basement; clean fireplace and caulk a couple spots that needed touch up; bring some wood from wood pile into the garage ready for use; bring the hoses into the garage (hoping that they won't freeze in there). It's a nice warm "Indian summer" day and the perfect sort of day to attend to any last minute outside chores as we prepare for the arrival of old man winter. Now kicking back with a cup of wickedly strong Irish Breakfast Tea and then getting ready to preach up at Zion, Staunton.
