Damned if ya do, damned if ya don't
In a year and a half of Avoning and blogging about Avoning only one customer has ever mentioned my blog. Cat Woman. I planned on telling you a... strange... story about her, her cats, Avon, and a man with orange hands, but once she spilled the beans that she reads Beauty Dish, I felt it prudent to keep my big mouth shut.
This morning I received a call from Cat Woman's son. She died peacefully in her sleep last night, an expected and welcome death with her family by her side, and he wanted to let me know.
"Why didn't you write about her?" His question caught me by surprise. "She loved reading your Avon site. She had me print out and read her the stories over the past month, once she couldn't leave bed. She kept hoping to see a story about her."
So tonight, in honor of the customer who became a real friend, I will tell Cat Woman's story. I hope she's got an angel with a printer....
