'Post Title' is the title of this post.

So, it's May now, and I've really kept you in suspense of how my Christmas actually turned out, right? Huh? Huh? Well, it was lovely. Christmas didn't let me down as I had been preparing myself for. All the work and mess and putting out was worth it. (Shut up, Ben). So, as I said, it's May now. It seems to me that I haven't actually stopped long enough to gaze out the window since I wrote that last post back in December. Wintertime in my outpost part of Canada is white and wonderful. It might seem a cheesy thing to say, but it's my blog, so I'll say it: I love to look out the window during the winter months and see the freshly fallen snow and think that it's so innocent-looking. So white, so pure. No mistakes in it. It's helpful to see that kind of thing when sometimes all you can recall about your own self are the mistakes. Sometimes it's necessary for nature to point out that God isn't in the mistake-making business. As I look outside now though, there's still the usual quilt of snow on the ground, but there's a lot more ground and green to be seen. The skies are more blue than grey. I'm someone who simply adores the cold and snow of winter, but at the same time, I find spring to be refreshing to the soul. And I thank God for that today. I've been cleaning today, since it's Saturday. My Saturday cleaning usually consists of sweeping, mopping, cleaning the bathroom, cleaning the kitchen, cleaning the porch, and generally doing anything else that needs to be done while I've got the time and initiative to do it. I'm someone who has to have the house empty of dog and husband and music blaring at an unacceptable level of loud in order to get down to work, and not just any music will suffice. I have a 'cleaning playlist' on iTunes that comes on when I need to get things done, and I must say it makes the time go much faster! Anyway, now I'm beat and drinking Pepsi and blogging and ordering clothes from JCPenney. More later. :)
