25 steps toward a clean coffee table

It's amazing how 2 people fresh home from a trip can trash a room or four so quickly. At any rate I was picking up the living room this morning and saw some water on the coffee table...spilled while refreshing the cat water - yeah another story.

1. Go get paper towel in kitchen
2. Notice paper towel dispenser is empty
3. go to laundry room to get new package of paper towels.
4. Feed cat a few morsels since he followed you in there.
5. Grab laundry basket
6. go to bedroom and load dirty clothes from suitcases...
7. return to laundry room with basket of dirty clothes...
8. return to kitchen; sort through nonessential snail mail on counter
9. find "trash" on counter along with airline stubs and credit cards.
10. place things in safe places and mail pile in den
11. remember ear piece adapter was put in shirt pocket on the flight from Seattle
12. return to laundry room to look in dirty shirt pocket
13. check travel bags for adapter
14. attempt to remove traveling clutter from den
15. remove book from travel bag
16. return to living room with book
17. sit down with laptop and check email
18. decide to get coffee
19. again shift stuff around on coffee table
20. notice water spilled while refreshing cat water(another story)
21. go to kitchen for paper towel
22. notice paper towel rack is empty
23. go to laundry room for new package of paper towels
24. place new paper towel roll on rack in kitchen
25. return to living room with paper towel and clean up spilled water!
