"I decide to water my garden.
- 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.
