As the temperatures begin to dip, the cold air can also reduce the air pressure in your tires. Take a few seconds to check your tire pressure and put air in them to get them back to the right setting. If this isn't in your wheelhouse to do yourself, you can also ask for the pressure to be checked the next time your car is in for regular maintenance. You also should ask if the tread on your tires is acceptable. If it's too worn down, they could present problems during the snowy winter months.

According to the National Sleep Foundation, the ideal temperature to get the best sleep is 65 degrees. While this may sound cold to many of you, the organization says a room that is too warm can make it difficult to get quality sleep. Fall and winter months are a good time to test this theory; lower the thermostat to 65 degrees and use blankets and socks to stay warm. When you wake up (rested, hopefully!), you can raise the thermostat back to a warmer temperature. You'll achieve a better sleep and save money on your heating costs at the same time, too.

The warm, covered environment of your backyard grill is an ideal place for a wild animal to forage for food or to nest inside. But wild animals and grilling dinner don't mix, so use these tips to keep them away. First, keep the grill as clean as possible, since grease and leftover food can draw animals in. This includes removing the grease tray and keeping it clean. You can purchase a tight cover for your grill as a barrier, too. Avoid wildlife-deterrent chemical sprays; nothing chemical-based should be near something you use to cook food. And if you do find a nest, no worries: Just remove the nest and run the grill on high for 30 minutes to sterilize it before using.
