• As I turn on the hose, I look over at my car and decide it needs washing.
• As I start toward the garage, I notice mail on the table that I collected from the mailbox earlier. I decide to go through the mail before I wash the car.
• I lay my car keys on the table, put the junk mail in the trash bin under the table, and notice that it is full.
• So, I decide to put the bills back on the table and take out the trash first.
• But then I think, since I'm going to be near the mail box when I take out the trash anyway, I may as well pay the bills first.
• I take my check book off the table, and see that there is only 1 check left.
• My extra checks are in my desk in the study, so I go inside the house to my desk where I find the can of Coke I'd been drinking.
• I'm going to look for my check, but first I need to push the Coke aside so that I don't accidentally knock it over.
• The Coke is getting warm, and I decide to put it in the fridge to keep it cold.
• As I head toward the kitchen with the Coke, a vase of flowers on the worktop catches my eye - they need water.
• I put the Coke on the worktop and discover my reading glasses that I've been searching for all morning.
• I decide I better put them back on my desk, but first I'm going to water the flowers. I set the glasses back down on the worktop, fill a container with water and suddenly spot the TV remote control.
• Someone left it on the kitchen table. I realize that tonight when we watch TV, I'll be looking for the remote control, but I won't remember that it's on the kitchen table, so I decide to put it back in the front room where it belongs, but first I'll water the flowers.
• I pour some water in the flowers, but quite a bit of it spills on the floor.
• So, I set the remote control back on the table, get some towels and wipe up the spill.
• Then, I head down the hall trying to remember what I was planning to do.
