So if you have been following me on facebook then you know that Daniel has left for his pre-deployment training. Let me just say he only left 51 hours ago but already the insomnia has set in. I can remember from this time last year when he was in bootcamp that I hardly ever slept. Well, here we go again. I thought maybe, just maybe, I would have been over this by now. Nope. I still can't sleep and it is driving me nuts!
One point I would like to make clear is that I have not fallen into my old blubbery ways quite yet as no tears have been shed. But I promise all of you as soon as that bus or plane or whatever vehicle that takes him away removes him from me, I will be welling up like a fountain. I think it is safe to say I better not be driving home from wherever this event is going to occur or the other drivers are going to be seriously in danger as my eyes DO NOT have wiper blades.
Anyways, back to the whole not sleeping thing. It is time I find a cure for my inability to sleep soundly. According to my friend/sister of advice, Savannah, I should try Melatonin, a natural supplement. So tomorrow that is exactly what I am going to go out and buy. I'll let you all know if it works or not because if it does then it may just be the saving grace for many of my military sisters out there.
I'm going to give my pillow a shot now and cuddle up under the covers to dream about a life devoid of deployments so I can sleep more soundly. Good night, hopefully.
