watering your plants.

some milk and a loaf of bread on his way home.

list with last-minute changes and corrections.
While he's in the house, cover the

bill.

your roof and cover it with a blanket, so that when Santa tries to land on your roof his sleigh
crashes into your living room. Explain that you've been having problems with termites.

toys. When Santa comes, sneer and say, "What's the matter? Afraid of a little competition?"

he does so, tell him, "That's good" and don't let him move until the "commercial" comes on.
Put on a giant tree costume, and wear a sign that says, "Man-eating Tree - Stay Back." When
Santa comes, wave your arms angrily and chase him back up the chimney.
Shovel all
the snow off of your roof, and replace it with whipped cream. Just when Santa is remarking how cute
this is, light a bunch of firecrackers and throw them onto the roof. The explosions should make

Scatter the parts of a disassembled bicycle around your living room. Get Santa to help you
