The fairy is back, with a friend !

Quote

"hey..hey...psst..you there...yeah..you with the Holiday glow...I recognize you! You&;re one of CF&;s friends!
I&;m Rodney, Rodney Reindeer! Did ya&;ll have a fantastic year? I sure hope so.
Listen, I snuck in here cuz I know how swamped CF is this year. Thought I&;d help her get a jump on things. That&;s what assist..er Reindeers are for right..helping out and such. Well, truth be told CF stepped in and helped me out of a pickle earlier this year, and I sorta owe her. Apparently one slip of an antler on the wrong button, and bam, you are banished from The Book Room....granted some of The List did get hot cocoa on it...but come on...The Big Man wouldn&;t have been that upset...accidents happen! Elves..I tell ya they can have a mean temper...
So yeah, been working with CF learning the ins&; and outs&; of being a fairy. And before you ask, YES reindeer can be fairies! We aren&;t held to the normal sleigh pulling stereotype these days. No Siree... We can do a multitude of jobs! For instance my half cousin on my second uncles&; dads&; side, he&;s a famous hockey player! They call him the Puckinator! Mind you..I&;ve got four left hooves so I can&;t skate worth a darn. And as much as I love learning to be like CF, my real passion is in writing! Someday I&;m gonna be an award winning author...just you wait and see! Speaking of writing, that leads us into Day 1 of..."

ehem "Rodney, what are you doing?"
"Oh..erm..hey CF! I was just you know..entertaining the folks till you got here" :D
"I see. And did you get to telling them about the plan for this year?"
"Uh, well..no not yet. I may have gone off topic a bit.."
giggles "Somehow that doesn&;t surprise me. Well then I&;ll explain it shall I? So I&;d been racking my brain all year trying to come up with something new for you lovely peeps, when Rodney actually had a brilliant idea. Seeing as he would like to be a writer someday, I&;ve agreed to let him tell you a holiday story. Each day he&;ll pop in and tell you a new chapter and hopefully it will be completed by Christmas day."
"Oh it will! I promise! Cross my antlers and everything!"
"Well alright then. Go ahead and start."
"Okay!"
Twas the first day of December, when there was a knock on the door...
"Wait..that&;s is? You&;re leaving them with one line?"
"Of couse...I gotta hook them for tomorrow don&;t I!"
shakes head "Well folks..I leave you in his...capable..well hooves :) I&;ll check in when I can! Enjoy all that awaits you this month!" <3

"Day 2, Day 2 weee it&;s Day 2! I hope that you all have a lovely First of December!
I&;m so excited to tell you the next part of the story! Are you? Well here we go!
Ok, so where were we..oh yes.. "
Twas the first day of December, when there was a knock on the door...
"Who could that be?" said Henrietta. Glancing at the kitty clock on the wall, tail swishing back and forth to the minutes. It was just past 6 am. Too early for the morning deliveries, and the way business has been, there is no way it was a customer.
"What do you think Bean Bunny, should I answer it or ignore it?" The multi colored lop eared bunny twitched her nose but kept on eating her breakfast. "Well you&;re no help."
Henrietta got up from where she was sitting next to the bunny pens and walked to the front of the store. Unlocking the front door and swinging it open towards her, Henrietta peered outside her little shop. Seemingly there wasn&;t anyone there. She looked up and down the front street, stepping outside to get a better look down the block. No one was there though. Not even a car driving past.
"Odd. I&;m sure I heard the door." Shrugging, she turned and glanced up to the sign above the door. Snow had fallen and covered the top half of the letters. Her hand rose up and tapped the sign allowing the snow to fall gently.
Henrietta&;s PetCare Her pride and joy now for the last 8 years. Selling all things that any small pet would require, as well as supporting the local shelter to help adopt out abandoned pets. In fact, she had an amazing record of re-homing animals. Some said it was a gift, being able to fit the right family with the right pet. All she knew is that it brought her so much joy to see both animal and human so happy together.
Smiling, she made to head back inside. &;ooof&; she exclaimed tripping over a box, falling and just catching herself before smacking her head on the ground. "What the.." A silver wrapped box with a blue bow neatly tied around it was laying on the snow. Henrietta blinked, and grabbed for the package. She stood up and shut the door behind her, walking to the back of the small shop and placing the pretty box on her cash counter in order to examine it further.
It appeared to not have a card or any tag for identification. She lifted the lid of the box to see the contents inside. "Ah." There was a white envelope on the top of some blue tissue paper. She opened it up to find a card inside. It was a lovely Christmas card of a dapple doxie wearing a santa hat looking up at her.
Just a little something to thank you for all you do. Some heroes are silent, but they are usually the best kind.
Happy holidays!
SS
Henrietta smiled a little. "Well isn&;t that a sweet thing to say." Removing the tissue paper, she revealed one of the most beautiful Snowglobes she&;d ever seen. The Globe rested on a Silver bottom, and the figure inside the glass was that of a tiny shop, looking very much like Henrietta&;s. It was if someone had hand crafted a look a like. A small tear fell down her cheek. This was the most amazing thing she&;d ever been given. She placed the precious globe on the shelf behind the counter and admired it for a minute.
"Who could this SS be? Was it Liza? Maybe it&;s Mic.. but he&;s away until Tuesday." She wanted to ponder this a bit more, but Jube Jube had awoken. SQWAK SQWAK. "Yes Yes, I hear you, breakfast is coming your majesty."
I guess figuring out who SS is would have to wait. 
"ohhh I wonder who the SS could be! Well Actually, I don&;t wonder, I know! hee hee Until tomorrow I hope joy follows you all day today!"

"Evening! or..Morning? Afternoon maybe..well whatever time it is for you, I send you greetings! Did you do anything fun today? I had the hard task of candy cane tasting. A reindeers work is never done. ;) And don&;t think I forgot about the next chapter! I got it right here in my satchel...ah ha..here it is! Day 3..." 
Jube Jube, the cockatiel, got her royal breakfast; the bunny pen had fresh lining; and a batch of home made dog biscuits were in the kitchen upstairs. Seems the morning chores were done and it was time to open shop.
Henrietta&;s PetCare had sporadic hours, but was mainly open every day from 10 till 10. There were odd times that Henrietta would have to head to the shelter, or make deliveries, and once to take the whole morning off catching up on sleep because a very young kitten needed feedings every hr. She just never knew what was going to come around the corner. Days were never boring, that&;s for sure.
Above the small store was a two bedroom apartment that Henrietta inherited from her grams when she passed away. It might be tiny, but it had everything she needed. Apart from the main and spare bedrooms, there was a open concept kitchen with an island counter top, a living room area that had enough room for a couch, coffee table, and several bean bags that may have seen better days. A small pantry leading to the in suite laundry and the bathroom were on the other side of the room. Sure it wasn&;t extravagant, but it did have a few features worth the lack of space. The living room had a huge window looking out the back of the building over a small park with a swing and one of those merry-go-rounds you could get dizzy on. During the summer it wasn&;t much to look at, but once the snow fell it was a glistening and peaceful work of art. When Henrietta had a few spare moments she would pull up a bean bag chair, sitting enjoying a cup of her favorite hot beverage and just stare outside soaking up the majestic scene. Birds, deer and even the occasional owl could be spotted if you waited long enough.
The other great feature was the stone brick fireplace. Not many people in the town still had working fireplaces. Most people had changed over to electric. They just didn&;t have the same feel as a real one. Pine was one of the best smells to have envelop the house during the winter. It always reminded her of her grandmother and she never wanted to change it. Plus, it did cut down on electricity bills during winter.
December was one of the best months of the year too. Right now, there was a very pretty fake Christmas tree erected between the fireplace and the window, garland draped all over the book shelves and light fixtures, and a snowy village on the coffee table. This wasn&;t even half what Henrietta owned, but sometimes animals needed care in the apartment, and she didn&;t want there to be any accidents.
Henrietta walked from the back of the shop towards the front door, glancing at the snow globe as she went by. She turned the &;Open&; sign around and unlocked the door again. Not that there was ever a mad rush in the store, but it was Friday and that meant that Liz would be in shortly to discuss her plans for the weekend. Liz was her best friend, and she enjoyed listening to Liz&;s extravagant stories. Henrietta didn&;t have much of a life outside the shop, so she lived vicariously through Liz.
brrrrrrringggggggggg brrrrrrrrrrringggggggggggg
"To the bat phone!" Henrietta giggled and walked to the cash counter and literally answered a red old school rotary phone.
"Henrietta&;s PetCare, Henrietta speaking, how may I...Oh..hi Margo..you what? Oh no! Yes, of course bring it right over. No no, I don&;t mind helping at all. Ok, see you in 15." Click Well, she thought, seems as if today was shaping up to be a doozy. 
"ohhh wonder what &;it&; is! :D stay tuned for tomorrows chapter!"

"I made it! A little late today, but the reindeer games ran a little long today. Rudy of course won the flying challenges. I&;m so in awe in how fast he can fly! I didn&;t win any medals today, but winning isn&;t everything. I had fun participating in the gingerbread eating contest, and gift wrapping contest. I may not be hungry for the next week though....anyway on to today&;s story! Where are we? oh yes Day 4! 
Not ten minutes later Liza came bounding in, her mouth already moving before the door swung shut. "Rita! Oh man lady, you are never going to believe what happened on my date last night."
"Mornin&; Liza." Henrietta was busy lining a big blue tub with a very soft rosy pink blanket.
"So get this, he arrives to pick me up 20 minutes late, in a rusty pick-up truck babbling about traffic issues, and that isn&;t even the part that irked me. Nope, the thing that got me was the fact that he was still covered in cow poop. Look, I know we live in a small town, but if you&;re heading on a date, you at least take a shower! Like, OMG. I shut the door in his face, I mean a girl does have some standards. This is the last time I use that dreaded website. No it&;s back to letting my aunt set me up again."
Henrietta shook her head and suppressed a snort. "I swear you have the weirdest dates in all the world. What happened to that one guy with the voice that sounded like a bird was dying? Or the one that took you to the alter right from your front door? Maybe you should just give up on dating"
"Lol oh yeah, I forgot about him. Perhaps I need to take a small break from finding Mr. Right." And just like that, Liza&;s face did some weird eyebrown twerking thing, staring right at Henrietta.
"No! NO! We talked about this Liza, I am not looking for a man right now."
"Pfft, you&;re getting up there in age, and I can&;t even remember the last time you went out and had some fun! Nope, that settles it, I&;m gonna make it my next project to find you love this Christmas!"
Sigh. "And I will make it my job to avoid your project. Look, Margo is going to be here any minute. Perhaps you should go, you know, open your shop?"
She looked at her fitbit, "meh, it&;s not like people are going to die if they don&;t get their coffee fix right this second. Why is Margo coming over?"
"Someone brought in a cat they found swimming for their life out in Holiday Pond. I guess the ice had a break in it, and he or she fell in. She said that the shelter is full up right now, so I&;m the second best place for it."
"Oh no! the poor thing! I&;m so glad someone rescued it. Yes, we all know you have that touch when it comes to animals in need. He or she will be well and on to a home in no time." Glancing at her fitbit again, Liza headed for the door. "I&;ll be over after the lunch rush, and don&;t think I&;m done with my match making!"
Before Henrietta could rebut, the door had shut. Shaking her head, again, like she did after almost every conversation with Liza, she got back to her preparations. The blue tub would be a comfy bed, but it won&;t be warm enough. Reaching under the counter, she pulled out a hot water bottle. This would definitely give an extra shot of heat for the poor kitty. Not knowing what kind of shape they would be in, she also gathered several cans of wet cat food, as this would at least get some fluids in as well as nutrients. Hoping that she wouldn&;t have to administer any subcutaneous fluids, because that was never a pleasant thing for animals.
Checking the cat clock on the wall again, Margo should be arriving any minute now. The snowglobe was still on the shelf, and she made a mental note to grill Liza when she saw her again. If the plan was to butter her up with a beautiful gift to then drag her through some atrocious dates, Liza would not succeed. But then, it really wasn&;t Liza&;s style...

Today's is longer than I'm allowed to post, so I will break it up into two posts !

Margo came in, carrying a small cardboard box with holes punched in it. "Henrietta, I am so glad you are able to assist right now. We had to shut down one side of the shelter due to a flood, and the other side is just full up with puppies and kittens. I would not have time to care for this little fella." She placed the box on the counter next to the tub.
"Wait, flooding? When did that happen?"
"On Sunday. One of the pipes burst. I swear we need to find a new building soon. This one is falling apart. This past summer it was the roof, now the pipes, I can&;t bare to think what the next thing will be. I&;m hoping the fundraiser on the 22nd will be a success. Any extra help we can get right now will go a long way."
"I&;m sorry to hear that Margo. I&;m sure the fundraiser will be amazing! Now, let&;s see what you brought me!"
Margo smiled, and then opened the box for Henrietta to see inside. All she could see was a grey blanket. "Well, he&;s a little shy and loves to hide underneath things. I made sure he had a full check up, gave him some fluids and food. He&;ll need some ointment for his eyes, and somewhere warm for the next few hours. Vet said he should be right as rain in no time. Not quite sure if he&;s feral or had a home. I&;ll leave the socializing to you shall I?" Her smile getting wider.
"I&;ve handled shy cats before. I&;m sure it will be fine." Henrietta lifted up the blanket enough to see grey fur all askew, and then slightly higher to see emerald green eyes shining back at her. "Aww look at how hansom you are! Though I feel a brushing will be in your near future haha."
"Well I have got to head back, one of our bunnies is about to give birth, and I want to be there in case I&;m needed. I&;ll give you a call tomorrow, see how he&;s settling in." She reached out and gave Henrietta&;s hand a squeeze, then head outside.
Henrietta looked down at the box again. "That can&;t too comfy, here let&;s transfer you to the tub. I know for a fact this blanket is the softest ever. I have one on my own bed upstairs!" She reached in and lifted the bundle up and into the tub. The grey cat didn&;t move though. Not wanting to scare the cat after his traumatic day, she opened up one of the cans of food and put it on a plate, which she then placed into the tub. After a few moments a tiny nose and whiskers peeked in the plates direction. Then a whole head popped out and he began to eat. Tentatively at first, but then with enthusiasm. "Poor thing, must be so hungry." Now that she could see him a little better, she could tell that he was a smoky grey floof. "So beautiful. I&;m going to have to call you something other than grey cat though. Hmm. How about Spirit, as in the holiday spirit. I mean, it is almost Christmas." He stopped to lick is face, looked up at her and blinked. "I&;ll take that as a yes! You eat that up, and I&;ll be back in a minute, I&;m going to warm up this hot water bottle for you. After you finish your snacks, we&;ll head upstairs. More room for you and a great big fireplace for you to lounge by." 
"Aww, poor kitty had a rough day, but things are looking up! Until tomorrow, be safe and happy. :D"
