Got a few things around the house down that I have been meaning to for a long time:

Scavenged a cdrom drive for my test machine and threw all my old drives into it and did a fresh install of fedora core 1 on it. It died a while back and I didn't have any way of booting it to re-install it. Also wanted to check 2 drives I had laying around, a 37GB and a 30GB drive and make sure they are ok before I use them for any data.

And of course it being the season now, got out my Xmas lights and put them up in the window. I guess I could put some on the apple tree in front, but that sounds like way too much work. One of the stands I have is of course broken. The durability on Xmas lights is pretty low it seems like. I remember my parents having some strands they used every year I had been alive and they worked fine. Perhaps some LED ones would have more durability than the old filament kind.
