Much Needed Rest

I have been out and about everyday for the last week. I am finally
taking a day off to just rest and do nothing. My body was starting to
revolt against me and remind me that I am not twenty something
anymore. I felt very fatigued today and have had a sore throat for
the last couple of days. This is a very strange feeling, because I
hardly ever get a sore throat. I have been around a lot of smokers
the last week, so I wonder if being around them has irritated my throat.

I decided to create a list of things I want to accomplish this
weekend. I want to look back on my list and see how much I actually
accomplish. So, without further ado, here is my list. (Side rant
here. Who speaks like that anyway. "Without further ado". I think we
should bring back the Shakespearean language and talk like that all
the time. But that is another blog all together.)

1. Read and finish the Harry Potter series (at least book one. I have
had so many people tell me how good this series is to read)
2. Clean the apartment (deep clean, not just pick up)
3. Go for a bike ride (at least 30 miles)
4. Run Saturday and Sunday (at least 5 miles both times)
5. Go shopping for a new wallet (since I lost mine, it is time to
pick out a new one)
6. Have dinner with a friend (any friend will count)
7. Take some random shots with my digital camera (I have had my eye
on a few things that I would like to capture as an image)
8. Update my blog (I've been slacking on the updates lately)
9. Work on my resume (more new jobs keep popping up lately)
10. Take my dog for a long walk (Its been a while since she has had
some good exercise)

So, there you have my list of things to do this weekend. I plan on
completing all of them by Monday morning. Seem like a lot? I have at
least 48 hours to do all of this, so it doesn't seem so bad.
