There is no better way to inspire overzealous productivity in my husband than to plan for dinner company. Here is what he hopes to accomplish by 5 p.m. today:
- Assemble and place our new kitchen work table.
- Paint the kitchen ceiling.
- Polish the chrome and glass coffee table.
- Stretch the new painting on canvas stretchers and then hang it.
- Rake the backyard.
- Clean out the fish bowl.
I, in turn, must:
- Make a quick trip to the grocery (with the boys in tow).
- Vacuum and dust the house.
- Prepare some food.
- Find a new home for all of the cookbooks and table linens that are stored in the old kitchen island which is to be replaced with the work table.
