When Santa was feeling blue about Christmas.
Normally Santa was feeling pretty good about Christmas. After all, it was his special day. A real Red Letter Day. You know, the day on the calendar that is outlined in red. Days like your birthday, Thanksgiving, Valentines day etc. He was afraid it was going to be different this year and he was feeling really blue (although he was dressed in his usual red outfit with all the white trimmings.) The reason he was feeling blue, was that he didn't like the sound of the weather forecast. It was supposed to be raining cats and dogs. All that rain would mean that the snow would get washed away. No one knows snow like Santa! Then his elves told him that they couldn't finish all the presents before Christmas. If he didn't feel blue before he sure did now. But he suspected that they were just snowing him or giving him a snow job. What it really meant was that they were hoping to go on a vacation to Hawaii or Arizona or anywhere warm because the elves really knew snow well and frankly, they were getting tired of shoveling it. The elves longed to be snowbirds. Living at the North Pole year around was getting to the elves, even though they knew that if they became , snowbirds all the little girls and boys wouldn't get their presents. So even though they tried to snow Santa, they knew that in the end they would feel too blue to ruin Santa's Red Letter day and had to admit that the only ones who got snowed were themselves. Before they had a chance to tell Santa the truth....(Choose where you want the story to go)
The Elves don't quit? or Santa gets angry?
