After a long and rather stressful day of losing my phone, getting hardly any sleep and having to walk to work in the bitter cold, I decided to check the mail in hopes that I'd find a gift from my secret santa.

And that I did! I pulled out my box and was filled with excitement, it was too late to bring the box back home and still make it in time for work so I decided to take it with me and open it there instead.

She got me an Aurora Borealis lights projector, two giant reese cups as well as some pristine prismacolor pencils (my favourite!!). There was a poem as well, even that was perfectly constructed.

"Twas a fortnight before christmas and all through the net Secret Santa awaited- whose username would they get?

On matching day, much excitement! Oh, who could it be? One wee elf checked for her match- /u/kzenabi!!!

With a swipe and a click, her details were shared with /u/LMorr and a gift was prepared!

"hmm, what would she like? what does she need?" Secret Santa returned to her profile to read.

"Drawing and Tacos and Chocolate- Wait! What's this?! A bucket list item- Aurora Borealis!".

Wouldn't you know it- /u/kzenabi's santa hailed from Alberta where Northern Lights abound but, how to share the experience? Oh, a solution was found!

After looking far, near, wide and beyond, a parcel arrived from across the pond.

Which now sits in your lap, /u/kzenabi! Here's wishing you the merriest Christmas From me!!"

The day was busy as I work in retail and it is christmas season, but this wonderful and thoughtful gift made my day, it made a stressful day way more bearable and I couldn't appreciate the effort my santa put in more.

Seriously, this suits me so well <3 It is a merry christmas indeed! (and my cat Momo seriously enjoyed the box as well, he fits and he sits).

Here's to a merry redditmas and a happy new year!
