My boss keeps piling it on!

What's your best advice?

I love my job, but my boss keeps adding more and more tasks for me to do. All his suggestions are good, but he overlooks the sheer mass of what he’s asked me to do. Often he’ll say, “Why isn’t that done?” He forgets that he also asked me to do many other things that did get done. He often involves me in unplanned meetings that make a disaster of my planned workday.

How can I get him to be more realistic? Do I just say “Enough already!” or “I can do that but other projects will have to wait”?
