I needed to do the laundry, but then I realized I was out of detergent, so I went to write a shopping list and realized how unorganized the junk drawer was, and started checking pens for ink.

When I went to toss all the junk, I saw that the trash was full, but before I took it out, I wanted to get rid of old food in the fridge.

That’s when I realized a juice jug had leaked so I needed to clean it up, but when I went to grab a rag, I saw that the pantry closet was a nightmare so I started organizing it.

And that’s how I ended up on the floor looking at my old photo albums from 1900s and not doing laundry.
