Kevin,
I'm glad to see that you have Issues/risk for the 8th element.
Some don't put it in the list! You have to wonder.
Meetings, plan updates, PMIS updates, meetings, calls, risk review, issue review, meetings, team review, status review, and meetings. Saving Changes...

Kevin's list is good, and I would add weekly tasks, as well.
Monday morning, take some time to review the previous week and identify anything you have not finished that needs to be addressed. You could do this Friday afternoon, but I prefer to include it, Monday morning, as part of my weekly prioritization. Taking a little extra time to look at your whole week, on Monday, can speed up your daily checklist. Saving Changes...
