Today has been a stress filled day

I have been excited about today for some time now.  I knew I was going to meet with the Avon person today to start selling AVON.  I was really excited because this would mean I was doing something while trying to find a job or start things in motion to go back to school.  The plan was that I would go to the dollar store to get sugar and other stuff in the morning and I would be home in plenty of time to meet with the Avon rep in the afternoon.  When my care provider came today she was not herself.  A bit absent minded she forgot a few things in our routine.  I went to go get the four legged children like I do every morning and came back because I could not find Minnie.  One look at my care provider's face and I knew something was wrong.  She was just sitting doing nothing.  This is unusual for her.  She always has a question or is doing something.  I asked her what was wrong.  She told me that she was feeling bad and that she was having pain in her arm.  I told her if it didn't stop to let me know.  About 10 minutes later, she was still having pain. I asked her to go to the doctor or the hospital.  I was afraid she was having a heart attack.  I knew that symptoms were different in women than men sometimes.  I was really afraid for her.  This is what Web MD says about women and heart attacks.  Women and heart attacks  She called me at 3:30 from the emergency room and told me she probably would not be back tonight.  I was not surprised.  At this point there was not a clear diagnosis.  I knew she needed to rest I told her not to worry go home and rest when she was done and we would talk later.  She talked to me after I met with the AVON person and ate.  According to the hospital, she did not have a heart attack.  She does need to follow up with a cardiologist.Thank God she is OK.

I met with my Avon person too and all is well.  I should be able to sell by the beginning of next week and I have to develop a strategy for getting customers if you consider that not every customer will buy every time.  I have my family member who sells AVON too.  She and I have decided to work together.  If someone lives closer to her and wants her that is no problem.  She in turn will send customers my way.  This way I don't feel like I am stepping on any one's customers.  We can all work together and support each other.  If you are interested in buying or know someone who is interested in AVON send me a comment or an e mail.  I wold love to hear from you!  All seems to have ended OK.  The care provider is alive and seems out of danger.  I am safe and excited to start something new and I did eventually find my four legged child Minnie.  She is safe and fed and sleeping in an old wheelchair.  Good night all  Take Care
