Pre-deployment and the Cleanse

The last deployment, I did not have to deal with the regular pre-deployment emotions because I had just gotten married. We knew he was deploying, so I stayed where I lived at that time since family was nearby, while he was stationed some states away. I did not know that the soldiers worked so late and seemed to barely be home. That aspect has definitely caught me off guard.

Now my husband is in the field. My goal had been to use up the last of the meal foods before I started the cleanse. However, I find myself wanting to start it now. I do not know exactly why this has suddenly hit, but I think it may be at least partially because I want to flush out the emotions that these circumstances are causing. I do not know if it would actually help or not, but it may take my mind off things.
