Answer 1

Answer: Therefore

Explanation: Therefore means that 'as a result' , 'thus', 'consequently'

As we can see here, there is an excuse of Mrs. Eaton saying what she has to do today, meaning that these stuff (doing laundry, walking the dog and so on) show us how busy she is. So, the sentence "I'm busy" shows that she is busy with doing/completing these stuff.
