Guess who woke me up this morning! Yes HUSBAND! He called really early here so his was the first voice I heard this morning. He is fine. As I knew deep down he was. He had his computer at the hotel in Sfax...but no adapter to charge it. He and another man had to go back up to Tunis for meetings with the company who has their company under contract. After sleeping "with his head on a rock" (Tunisia's idea of a pillow!) this was where he stayed for two days:
The Golden Tulip in the old city (Cathage). He said it was really lovely. And I know the break and a little luxury helped him tremendously. Thank you all for allowing me to fret and whine. I appreciate you all and knowing some of your trials put mine in a different light.
He sounded good. And not just good to me. He said it has been quite the adventure so far and he has been really busy, as I suspected.
We talked only about 5 minutes since it was the emergency phone. The regular phones and computers should be up and running in a day or so. And then we can really catch up. Amazing how just hearing his voice puts everything back right for me. WOW now to catch up from all my wallowing!
I will try to post something useful tomorrow...like a recipe!

What good news!! You had every right to have your pity party..but I am glad you are able to have a nice weekend now. What a great way to start the day!!
You farmgirls are such a sweet bunch. I have had a really good day. The kids and I went antiquing this afternoon - some great finds. I will blog about them tomorrow with pictures. After I talked to The Man this morning I was like a new person! I put on a little make up, a new dress and loaded the kids up and off we went. Even my little man (11) had a great time. You know Husband has always told me "Mom's mood sets the mood for the whole family." So true. So we laughed and shopped and had a great great afternoon even if it was just the 4 of us. I have to tell you, my girls are extremely entertaining.
You are right Frannie I would have loved to be with him. One day. He told me this morning he would love to show the kids and me the things he has seen this week. One day. We had already been planning a trip to Europe next year so we will just add a couple of stops!
Pity Party OVER!!
