It's Monday...

Ludington State Park - view of the bridge overlooking the dam from Hamlin Lake...and I'm gonna blog on a regular basis again! Today I continued the photographic endeavor begun by Frank & I together... following the progress of the work being done on Festival Park along the Tittabawassee River.

This photo, however, was taken this past weekend at the Ludington State Park. I just had to go up to the cottage; Pam & Mike met me there and we had a fine weekend visit together. It was good to get away from my current project - getting up to speed on all the paper work involved when one's spouse dies. The paperwork keeps you so darned busy you have time to neither grieve nor relax, so I just decided to make the time for relaxation.

Today I hand-delivered the paperwork to Dow so I will continue to receive a paycheck (from Frank's pension) bigger than my own, which is so small it wouldn't be missed! Also got my summer property taxes paid - cottage and home. I even answered the Monday Madness questions! You'll find my answers at Sherle's Projects where I normally was just posting photo projects, but what the hey... I decided to expand it.

My sincere condolences.

I remember all that paperwork from when my son died. And a husband must be even more. I always thought they gave you all that paperwork to keep your mind busy.
