H complains that he is not getting enough sleep.

I'm home at lunch and he is not there... he calls... I let it go to voicemail.

He shows up but doesn't come in the house. He is in the garage. The puppy is in the house with me and then the puppy opened up the door all by himself and ran out into the garage to see him.

I followed puppy and at the same time S18 gets home. H is loading up the old water heater to take to place to get rid of it along with the previous dog kennel that he replaced last night.

Its nearly 2pm. H comes into the house saying that got a text car insurance hadn't been paid. I informed him I just did it. He went on to say the number I gave for the fence people isn't working so I double check the number.

There was more continued chatter - nothing significant. Somehow at this point we are back in the garage inspecting new dog kennel as there was a minor issue. He gets ready to head out and states he is dropping this stuff off and going to the eye doctor. I just said oh? The nose piece fell off his glasses again - that [censored]!

So he is heading out at 2pm... it will be 3pm before he gets home... he has to shower and sleep to leave for work by 8pm.

Now, that I've typed it all out he is just trying to get everything done at the house before he goes... he is willing to be sleep deprived if it gets him out of here faster. That makes sense now.

At least I didn't do anything to create a disagreement. Perhaps some tension between us can lift a little.
