Sorry I took so long getting to you, but the special elf who's assigned to you had 41 other dulcimer-ers to take care of before you. However, he states that out of the 42 checked out so far, you've behaved the best of the lot, take that for what you will. You will make out quite well this Christmas as a result. So, things are heating up after being kept at a dull simmer and choice goodies (my choice, of course) will be soon on the way to reward your patience.

Let Nothing You Dismay,
Father X-Mas
