Open the hood, top off the oil, top off the radiator water, top off the windshield washer water, check the oil, trans fluid, radiator water, windshield washer water, jump start the battery, jump start another vehicle from car battery (without getting shocked), check the battery, remove and install the battery, check the fan belts, but after that, it is time to take the car in for servicing if it needs more.... like alternator replacement, change the oil, other major fluids, spark plugs, etc.

2. What’s something you know how to fold a piece of paper into?

Walk, take photos, drive my car, relax outside, the usual, casual stuff.
