Christmas Steve and Sleeping Judy: Hilarious Holiday Moments You’ll Relate To.
‘Twas the night before Christmas, and my friend’s toddler padded into the living room, rubbing her sleepy eyes.
Who Is Christmas Steve?
“Is he here yet?” she asked, barely awake.
“Who, Sweetie? You mean Santa Claus? No, Santa won’t get here until you’re sound asleep,” Mom replied.
“Not Santa,” she said, annoyed. “Christmas Steve.”
“Who?”
“Christmas Steve.”
“Who’s Christmas Steve, Honey?”
“I don’t know, Mommy. But at the store, Daddy said we needed to buy lots of wine before everyone got here for our Christmas Steve party.”
Holiday Mix-Ups: Christmas Steve and Sleeping Judy
During our holiday party, my little daughter also wandered into the living room.
My friend Bob saw her first and walked over.
“Good morning, Sleeping Beauty,” he said with a warm smile. “How are you?”
She glared up at him through her sleep-tousled curls and stomped her little foot.
“I am NOT Sleeping Judy. My name’s Ali!”
As the holidays approach, I hope you enjoy moments like these—full of humor, love, good friends, and maybe even being able to laugh at the occasional mix-up.
Thank you for reading, sharing your thoughts, and engaging with me. Sometimes, writing these posts feels like yelling into a chasm and waiting for a response, even if it’s only an echo. So whether you agree or disagree with what I’ve written and said, I’ve appreciated every conversation with you this year.
Wishing You a Joyful Holiday Season
I wish you a joyful holiday season and a happy, healthy, prosperous new year. Here’s to more stories, laughs, opportunities, and continuing our conversations—along with Christmas Steve, Sleeping Judy, and, of course, me and you.
Thanks Bruce and happy new year! I will be looking forward to more of your thought provoking posts which I have been enjoying for years! We met many, many years ago at several National Speakers Association meetings. Now, I am retired and would like to revisit speaking on a part time basis, any advice? All the best to you and your family for 2025 (can you believe how fast the time has gone)!
Hello Michael. Congratulations on all your successes and your pivot.
My recommendation to people who want to increase their speaking opportunities is simply this: “If you want to speak more, speak more.” Find every opportunity to get up in front of people — school classes, community meetings, association chapters, Toastmasters, wherever. When people see you, hear your message, and feel the energy you bring to the stage, things will start to happen.
Great to be back in touch.
