A Christmas Story
Christmas Story for people having a bad day....
When four of Santa's elves got sick,
the trainee elves did not produce toys as fast as the regular ones,
and Santa began to feel the pre-Christmas pressure.
Then Mrs Claus told Santa her Mother was coming to visit, which
stressed Santa even more.
When he went to harness the reindeer,
he found that three of them were about to give birth and two others had
jumped the fence and were out, heaven knows where. Then when he began
to load the sleigh, one of the floorboards cracked, the toy bag fell to the
ground and all the toys were scattered.
So, frustrated, Santa went in the house for a cup of apple cider.
When he went to the cupboard, he discovered the elves had drank all
the cider.
In his frustration, he accidentally dropped the cider jug, and it broke into
hundreds of little 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.
Just then the doorbell rang, and irritated Santa marched to the door,
yanked it open, and there stood a little angel with a great big
Christmas tree.
The angel said very cheerfully, "Merry Christmas, Santa. Isn't this a
lovely day? I have a beautiful tree for you. Where would you like me to stick it?"
And so began the tradition of the little angel on top of the Christmas
tree.
