John's final post of the year...
December 24th
Happy Christmas! I never thought I'd be able to say that this year. But tonight, I am in a good place and headed to one better! No all, I'm not killing myself. In fact, just the opposite. I am taking a trip and living a little. I'm not telling you where I'm going. I'm taking my laptop so I'll keep you up on the blog. I suspect once I get to the place I'm going I will feel the need to tell the world what's going on. But for now, I don't. It's my own happy secret.
I had thought this Christmas would be absolutely horrible this year. What a difference a month makes! I have dealt with Sherlock's death a lot better than I had expected. I've even begun writing about some of the adventures we'd had before he died…It still hurts to say that, but I know that what he did he did for the greater good. I understand now, better than I ever could.
From here on out, the New Year is looking better and better. I am excited to be leaving London for an adventure that I never thought I'd have. I'm happy to finally be starting a new chapter of my life. Love to you all! Happy Christmas and a very Happy New Year to you all. May your wishes and dreams for the New Year come true!
Harry Watson: Where you going, bro? Going with anyone I know? Keep us in the loop! Happy Christmas! It's good to hear you're doing better!
Greg Lestrade: Have a great Christmas, mate! Keep in touch, eh? Let us all know you're doing well.
Mike Stamford: Cheers, mate! Have a Happy Christmas!
Molly Hooper: Blessings, John! I am so happy for you! Have a fantastic trip and wonderful holiday season! I hope to see you back at Bart's some time soon!
Anonymous: Glad to see you've stopped moping, friend. Enjoy your trip and keep us updated! Happy Christmas!
So...that's the end! The Sequel will hopefully be started soon...unless you really want me to stop...yes, begging again...But DocWatson wants to work on other stories as well, so we need reviews...which DO equal love, ya know!? If I don't hear from you, Happy Christmas, all!
