Stumbling blocks
Last night.....late.....watching tv.......with Lou......settling in......he says, out of the blue...."what is the biggest stumbling block you face to having true happiness"..........HUH??? ..... hmmmm.....well let's see....could it possibly be the fact that you have a BRAIN TUMOR???????????? I don't say that of course. I say.... "well....hmmmm....I'm not really sure......I mean, I"m pretty happy you know.........what about you.....what is the biggest stumbling block to your true happiness, Lou" ???? And he thinks.....and he says....."well, I've been thinking about that. And well, I don't have one, I'm really happy right now, you know? " Excuse me , I'm thinking.....WHAT did you say????? He goes on to say...."would you agree this is a pretty good time for us .....? " Uh huh....yep, I sure would I say...........great time for us, you sure are right about that. Couldn't be better. And he says..."there is no reason this cannot be the best time ever for us"........right, no reason at all, none.....uh huh........and then he says........."where are we?...... are we in our apartment?"...........there it is.....that darn stumbling block, staring me right in the face.......can't get away from it for long......it's ok......he's happy....he feels happy.....somehow, he feels happy....no stumbling block for Lou.
Guess there's a lesson in there somewhere.......right?
Happy Mother's Day!

Oh Cathy, I feel that these moments of "Lou-cidity" must be hard for you, because they are so arbitrary in their appearence, and over so quickly. But thank you for sharing them, because it brings your darling Lou alive to me.

Hi Cathy ... again, your words speak straight to my heart.
Hi Cathy,
I've finally put my Lessons from Lou bookmark where I will get to it. I do miss reading your emails though.
Love you.
