There are just 9 weeks until Christmas and I’m so very, very excited. My little Trixie is coming home for Halloween. As you read yesterday here on Santa Update the test flight pilots and their reindeer are coming home next weekend for Halloween. I finally get to see her! She’s a big girl now, as […]
10 weeks now until Christmas – just about down to the single digits! It’s a pretty exciting time to be an elf. So this week they put me in one of the back studios at Kringle Radio and had me read news – as a test. I failed miserably. I just get so doggone nervous. […]
11 Weeks until Christmas folks and I’m starting to see some strain on the elf efforts here at the North Pole. I visited the Department of Elf Resources here at the North Pole for a story I’m working on for the Santa Tracker Herald Star. And you know what? That’s one crazy nutso place right […]
12 weeks until Christmas, gang, but let’s talk Halloween, shall we? I got a call from Elf Harold Star, my editor over at the Santa Tracker Herald Star, and he told me he got a call from Mrs. Claus. All of a sudden I find myself on the Halloween Committee here at the North Pole. […]
Only 14 weeks until Christmas now, friends. Do you have any idea how fast all that is going to go? There’s a change I’m feeling here at the North Pole. Maybe it is because I am more involved this year. I dunno. But there is an excitement I cannot explain. I was invited to a […]
There’s only 15 weeks until Christmas, guys. 15 weeks! But it is Christmas here already. We got a ton of snow this week. I mean a ton. That has really given everything a kind of Christmas feel to things. I mean, nobody has their lights or trees up yet but it still has a Christmasy […]
16 weeks until Christmas, gang! It’s getting exciting here. I’ve spent this week over at the Wrapping Department, talking with Elf Wally. My ears hurt. Elf Wally can talk FAST. I think that’s why he got that job over there. Everything is so speedy over there. I don’t think I could ever work in that […]
There are now just 17 weeks until Christmas. I can smell it in the air now. That’s because of several things. First of all, a lot of cookies are being worked on in Mrs. Claus’ kitchen. Elves here eat cookies like crazy. But Mrs. Claus tells me the cookies they are eating now are nothing […]
18 weeks until Christmas, gang! Have ya frosted any cookies yet? I have. I took a workshop Mrs. Claus held earlier this week. I had no idea there were so many rules to just frosting cookies. I would just slather the stuff on and sprinkle it with something sugary. That is not the way you […]
19 weeks now until Christmas! Things are starting to feel festive. I have been talking to school teachers the past few weeks. We always hear from them as school starts up in various places. Elf Ernest tells me this is one of his favorite parts of the job. School teachers will write in asking for […]
20 weeks to go until Christmas, friends. Things are starting to feel…different. Last year the reindeer didn’t come back until really late. I think it was right around Thanksgiving when they finally showed up. I stopped by the reindeer barn the other day to talk to my friend there who gives me updates on Trixie, […]
Hi ho, just 21 weeks to go until Christmas. I’m starting to get really, really, really, really, really excited. This summer-time elf thing has been a lot of fun for me. No school means I get to work most of the time at my first real love, being an elf reporter. This past week I […]
