miracle.” because it was…
It had been the best vacation ever because everyone got what they wanted: her stomach finally settled down and she got a shiny new key to Steve’s house; the flamingos got to go home to their lake, and Steve got front row seats for the Cirque du Soleil.
Hopefully, Steve and The Royal Canadian Mounted Police wouldn’t be weren’t waiting for her when she returned. When she drove the bus into its parking area, she took a deep breath, and then looked around. It didn’t look as though the SWAT team was waiting for her--this time. She made her way to her front row seat and watched the end of the best circus ever, while fondling her shiny new key.
Steve knew Corny wasn’t in the bathroom all this time, but as long as she wasn’t in the hospital or in a Canadian jail, comma he’d sit there and enjoy the best circus he’d ever seen.
CHAPTER EIGHT
Corny moved into Steve’s house in record speed, while he had grumbled the whole time. Whenever another box was brought in he had said, “Corny, where did all this stuff come from? It wasn’t in your apartment.”
“My apartment was too small to hold all of it; I had most if it in storage.”
All it had taken was for her to show Steve the benefits of a live-in girlfriend and he had shut up real fast.
She had woken Christmas morning, in their bed, listening to Elvis singing ‘Blue Christmas’ and remembered their trip to Victoria. And then Corny thought that getting the flamingos home by Christmas saved them from having ‘The Flamingo Blues’.
Merry Christmas!

Me and Mr. Claus
A jingle of bells and a flurry of greetings erupted from the hallway and both Kristen and Ashley turned their heads. Through the glass walls of the office they could see Noah Goodwell making his cheerful happy-go-lucky rounds.
“I bet that relentless do-gooder has never had a bad day in his life,” Kristen complained.
Ashley smiled. “He’s always so friendly and nice.”
“Too nice to be genuine.”
“Handsome,” Ashley continued, and a dreamy look crossed over her face. “He’s very, very handsome.”
“Somewhat good-looking,” Kristen conceded. “Oh no . Here he comes.”
Noah poked his head around the door. “Hello ladies,” he said, wearing a bright smile. “Just want to wish you a good morning.”
“Good morning to you, too, Noah,” Ashley returned.
Kristen gave him a curt nod. His gaze lingered on her a second longer than Ashley. Then he left, and his voice could be heard greeting Mr. Holly down the hall.
“It wouldn’t kill you to at least say ‘Good Morning,’” Ashley scolded.
Kristen frowned. “Today it might.”
