Ugh

My husband is missing. Not terribly, but he is slightly MIA, to be sure. He said he was going walking in the neighborhood in order to win the step challenge for the week against my brothers. When I finished what I was doing, I changed my shoes and used the bathroom, intending to go join him for a few minutes. It had been over an hour, so he should have been finished or getting close. I would be joining him for the tail end of it all, no big deal. As I checked the map right before walking outside, it shows me that he is miles away… at a public walking/running park trail. But his phone isn’t moving. It’s either dropped on the ground or in a parked car. I know not the answer, of course, because my husband wasn’t supposed to be driving anywhere, and was supposed to be in our general neighborhood walking. And he told me nothing of this plan change. It is late at night. We have discussed many times that he needs to keep me informed when he is out late at night. He has told me nothing. So, of course, my brain is worried about him and I have been debating whether or not to get in the car and head to the park.

Most likely, everything is fine and he is safe and he just left his phone in the car for some random reason. Perhaps he wanted to run to get steps instead of walk, and so didn’t want the phone jangling around in his pocket.

But he didn’t tell me any of this, let alone that he was leaving the neighborhood at all. So, there’s a chance everything it not okay at all. Because he should have already reached his goal by now, and, even with having gone to the park to walk, he should be back at his car getting ready to head home at this point… and he isn’t…

So, yeah… dealing with that right now…
