So much to see and do - get hold of a good guide book, even pick up local guides when needed - Belleek factory and shop a must for the lady of the house - numerous castles - one time when we were soaked from the rains we could not wait until we got to King John's Castle just to get out of the rain, well when we got there, no roof on the castle, we had to make a run for a tent set up on a field for cover, fun....and while Ireland may not be the land of the "midnight sun" the sun does set late, after 10pm in late June/July something to see if you have never...the Blarney Stone....Waterford...Cliffs of Moher...Ring of Kerry ....the list goes on and on...US pre-clearance at the airport...

Don't over plan. Your adventures will find you, often just getting in your car and set off driving. Many Castles in Ireland are not castles as you expect, but Great Houses.
Don't move to a new B&B every night, too much hassle. Just move every few days.
Around Dublin you don't need a car, Dublin Bus is great. They have an awesome app, so you don't leave the pub until seconds before the bus arrives.
There is another good tourism app that shows you what is around and in what direction. You will have to find it.
Hail O is the cab app.
