Tired?

I am so tired of so many things! I got an e-mail from someone wanting to return a bracelet for no good reason. I really think that this is the 2nd person who bought a bracelet, wore it, and now is returning it to get her money back. I guess I'm going to have to put a stronger return policy.
I have to go to H.S. tomorrow, and I am dreading it because my brother-in-law whom I like quite a lot is going to have to go to L.R. and have open-heart surgery - a big deal, triple bypass or even more. I think he's going to have a valve replaced also. I'm just hoping my mother doesn't decide to show up during the surgery; I've had enough of her company for the next decade or more. I've never known a more hateful person, especially to her own family; of course, that's mental illness partially.
I haven't pulled out my winter clothes this year yet, and now it is really cold outside, so I'm going to have to do that before I leave tomorrow. I'm also a little worried about staying in that big house of my sister's all by myself. It will take me an hour just to check to make sure that all the doors and windows are locked. Of course, I do love the house.
I'm so tired of having people sick and/or dying close to me - although, I have been very lucky throughout my life to be this age and just now have it happening. My father, my husband's father, his mother over 15 years ago. Before that anyone who died seemed so very much older - grandparents, great-aunts, great-uncles. I am really worried about my brother-in-law.
I cannot wait to leave for Europe!
