Christmas Escape

Broken furnace? Check.

Blizzard? Check.

Moose? Yes, check.

Running away from my problems? Yeah…that’s a check, too.

I’ve never been altogether lucky, but somehow, on Christmas eve, I land right where I’m supposed to be. Fantastic! Except, the arms that make me feel so safe are several hundred miles from my home. I’m only on vacation in Majestic Falls, and soon, I’ll have to go back to my real life.

But who knows? Christmas is a time for surprises. But so far, nothing’s gone as I’ve expected. I’m wishing on a lucky moose to get exactly what I never knew I wanted.
