Fall To-Do List around the home

I was standing at the kitchen sink this morning, drinking my first cup of coffee and watching the spiders that had built a very messy web between the window glass and screen and thought, "well darn, it's fall, guess I need to wash windows". What would you add to this fall to-do list.

turn and cover the raised beds (add compost)

clean and put away garden tools
