Winterizing items with small engines and changing over tires (I do them myself).

I spend an entire day doing this stuff:

  • Clean shit off mower. Change oil, spark plug, and blades on mower. Drain gas and tuck out of the way somewhere.
  • Get out snowblower. Add fresh gas and check oil. Start and make sure it's working alright.
  • Install plow on ATV. Grease all fittings on ATV. Check hub fluid, replace drive belt. Install tire chains.
  • Put driveway markers along driveway
  • Install snow tires on both vehicles
  • Install special winter door over one of my exterior doors for insulation
  • Ignore all other small engines and wonder why they need their carburetors cleaned in the spring

Then there's usually an entire extra day of winterizing garden beds and whatnot.
