Late Night at the Pole

It is so very late at Santa's Village! Mrs. Claus, the elves and most of the reindeer have been asleep for hours. Santa has been working on the "Naughty and Nice" list for ever so long.

Don't think to yourself that it an easy job. Every child, no matter the age, has a little "naughty" in them and even the most naughty can develop a little "nice".

Santa sipped some hot chocolate earlier and had a snickerdoodle cookie. Snickerdoodles are one of Santa's favorites. Sleep would not come, so after wandering to the reindeer barn, brushing Rudy... Rudolph and making sure each deer had enough reindeer nuggets with flight additives, Santa has come back close to the fireplace.

A good book, a quilt and soft Christmas carols are what is needed!

Half Way mark is passed

Well, the year is more than half over and I didn't even see it come and go. There is so much to be done, lists to check, toys to make, and the diet... yes, the diet. Even Santa needs to eat healthy! You don't think I live on cookies and milk, do you?
