Just too much

I have the next three days off. I’m taking a mini-vacation while my client is on vacation. I need some time to work on cleaning my garage and documenting my IDP hours. The garage because I want to get my Dad’s 1974 Dodge truck down here before he decides I’m never going to get it and takes it to the scrap yard (btw I don’t think he ever will, but just in case). I need to work on my IDP because apparently there is a July 1 deadline to document your hours or you lose them all. There may be some exceptions to that, but it’s about time I did it anyway.

Thinking about this time off I’ve had all kinds of thoughts of other stuff I’d like to do. I am starting to appreciate life’s limits though and at least realize I always try to do too much. I just can’t help it though. So while I watch last night’s Craig Ferguson I’m going to write a list of all of the things I’d like to do while I’m off.

Clean the garage
Document all of my IDP
Install the second toilet
Mow the yard
Finish Kay’s plant protection screen
Vacuum the house
Clean off the back porch
Clean the kitchen
Clean up the dog poop
Smoke a cigar each day
Give the dogs a bath
Write blogs
Go to a coffee shop
Read the Bible
Pray
Bible Study
Clean the big closet out so I can put the file cabinets in the garage in there
Catch up on laundry
Take a bike ride
Run at Walnut Creek

Does anyone else think like this? I hope everybody doesn’t. It kinda sucks. It’s not even remotely realistic to think I could get all of that done in the next three days. I’ll post this weekend about what actually got done.

I think we all think like that. Think we can do more than we really can! Human nature!
