So your H wants to come out to see the dog? LOL Oh the things they come up with. My H made a point to see me so he could borrow a camera. Even though he could buy a disposable one for less than 5.00 at probably 10 places within walking distance of his house. Oh my they are unreal!
The other thing I see is that he TOLD you he has tried to call, but obviously didn't get you. Hummmm I think he noticed that!
I think you handled it well with or without the caffine!
You go girl and maybe you just will have plans on Sat. Taking the dog for a ride or something.
