I like vacuuming just because it’s loud and it feels satisfying to make the dirt go away by having it vanish into the vacuum. ---

Splitting wood, with an axe or a maul. It’s a great way to get out frustration and pile up wood for the fireplace. And I get to be alone; no one pesters a man swinging an axe. ---
