Hey everyone!
Great time of year here, a time for family, fun, and friends – Just wanted to share a funny Christmas story I came across – totally off topic, but funny!
********
One Christmas, a long time ago, Santa Claus was getting ready for his annual trip; but
there were problems …… everywhere.
Four of his elves were away sick and the trainee elves did not produce the toys as fast as
the regular ones. So, Santa was beginning to feel the pressure of being behind schedule.
Then, Mrs. Claus popped in to tell Santa that her mother was coming to stay for
Christmas; which stressed him even more.
After a while, he went to harness the reindeer, he found that three of them were about to
give birth and two had jumped the fence and run away, heaven knows where to.
Deciding that he would work with what he has, he begins to load the sleigh, when one of the boards breaks and several large toy- bags fall to the ground, scattering their contents all over the place. Needless to say, Santa was not in the best of moods.
Frustrated, Santa went in the house for a cup of apple cider and a shot of rum. When he went to the cupboard, he discovered the elves had drunk all the cider and hidden the liquor. In his frustration, he accidentally dropped the cider jug, and it broke into hundreds of glass pieces all over the kitchen floor. He went to get the broom and found the mice had eaten all the straw off the end of the broom.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang and he went to the door expecting another problem. But when he opened it, there was a little angel with a great big Christmas tree that she had brought especially to cheer him up.
The angel greeted him very cheerfully, “Merry Christmas Santa Claus. Isn’t it just a
wonderful day? I have a beautiful tree for you. See, isn’t it just the loveliest Christmas
tree you’ve ever seen, Santa? Where would you like me to put it?”
Thus began the tradition of the little angel on top of the Christmas tree..
Awwww . . . How cute! LOL!
Stay strong and have a great holiday!
