Good Omens!

 Stew's Milk Mart

As most of you know I've been going down to USC Medical Center once a week for chemo since the end of March. We go down the night before, stay in a nice little motel in Alhambra and then get to the hospital early in the morning.
 Pet Pet Dog Wash

On the drive between the motel and the clinic we pass three things that became "Good Omens" for me.
 Each trip I would make sure to catch a glance of each of these places and then
 I'd know the day would go well.

 Beautifully maintained palms at the entrance to USC 

The reason?  Well, how can you not love a teeny-tiny store called Stew's Milk Mart?  And Pet Pet Dog Wash - I mean really!  And the palms?  I love palm trees, yet so often they are not kept up.  But when they are and look this good - that's gotta be a good sign!



Here's a page in my current daily journal where I paid tribute to my "Good Omens"  And hey it's working - the chemo is going very well and I'm doing great!

  1. this is great. Shamans and smart, sensitive people all over the World know that Good Omens aren't just New Age Hooey, they're the fabric of a large, complex and unknowable tapestry. I'm going with GOOD. More pages please....

  5. Like three good friends standing along the parade route, cheering lustily as you pass. And yes, they are working as they should. xo
