Mine texted the kids after an 11 day absence (though to be fair he did see D on Saturday). Same generic I love you. They never text him back. He hasn't seen my son in well over a month now (and keep in mind he lives 50 min away and works 7 days on and 7 days off). At least your H has the excuse of distance and resources. Sorry you are having troubles with lodging. At least this way you have some time to look for something else.
