While the cat's away...

Jason left yesterday for what seems like may be an eternity. Those of you who know me well are all asking "What will your project be while Jason is gone?" I can't decide!!!! I have never in my life had this problem. Jason goes away...Jen does something crazy...dig up the front yard, paint the entire interior of the house, etc...
This time I can't decide what to do. I'm taking suggestions!!!
At first I thought a new dining table would be so great. I went to RC Willey where a friend of ours works. We have pretty much from the beginning of our marriage gotten all of our furniture, carpet, and appliances with his help. When I saw him today I told him I wanted a new dining table...and without missing a beat he says "Jason's out of town again?" Hah hah funny funny!!

So here are my options...please ponder and submit your suggestion. And remember I have a reputation to uphold, I can't have Jason come home to find nothing was done.

1) clean the basement
2) create raised garden beds in back yard
3) clean garage and have floor painted (I'm thinking pink!!)
4) conquer the laundry pile (this one might shock Jason to death)
5) other_______
