What's a mundane thing you did today that you're proud of?
After noticing my central air wasn't working properly I figured out the problem without incessant worrying and successfully changed the capacitor myself, which fixed the issue. There was an active wasps nest on the unit right under where the capacitor was but I got it done anyways!
No way this thread doesn't already exist but I searched every keyword I could think of and didn't see one
 
I got tired of my garage door shrieking like a banshee every time I opened it, so I oiled and/or greased every metal-to-metal contact point on it. It not only is quiet now, but also opens and closes with much less effort.

Entitled-ass wasps, squatting on your land paying no bills and didn't even have the decency to give you a heads-up about the capacitor failure.
 
Changed out all the heads on my drumkit (14 in total) and polished all the cymbals (7). Huge pain in the ass but it's finally done.
 
I fed a stray cat on the way back from luring my fat old cat back home with treats. I made her night a little brighter and less hungry. She's got a cool meow. She sounds like Dino from The Flintstones if he was a cat.
 
Had a damn good sales day at work, I cleaned and reorganized the whole storage room so it doesn't look like an episode of Horders, and didn't get ran over by a van full of Mexicans on my bike ride home.
 
I drove 5 hours straight with a mileage of 43 miles per gallon.
 
Cleared and area in my garden before we get into spring to avoid snakes, went out there today to do some more work and i see a Satin Bowerbird with his bower right where i cleaned up dancing around to impress his new girlfriend. Ended up setting up a chair in my window and a camera to record his show.

Dancing boi

Bowerbirds are one of my favourite native birds for their song alone, the female bowerbirds ended up stealing all my pegs from the washing line and spreading them out on the back garden for fun.
 
Took an absolute beast shit that would make Kathleen Kludy proud.

It was a no-wiper.
 
Did my physio, which really works but weirdly - ONLY IF I ACTUALLY DO IT.
