I'm worried :(

I have been trying for 4 hours to reach my husband by cell phone, and I get the voice mail. I tried his hotel room, and no one answers. I know he was going to go out this evening and drive around exploring by himself, but he is in a remote area (right, Lesley??), in a rented car alone, and I don't know whether he forgot his cell phone, or he forgot to charge it, or what, but I'm getting worried about him. It is not like him not to call me every few hours when we don't talk. And he hasn't called. Maybe his cell phone is just dead, but I sure do wish I could talk to him to reassure myself. Lesley mentioned all those sharp mountain roads with the 1000 foot drops, and (since the glass is always half empty for me) horrible visions go through my mind. And I won't even write what they are :(

LOL Lesley, if you read this, I'm going to send you out looking for him pretty soon!

I'm sure he's ok, Sofia. Maybe coverage is just spotty way up there or his battery could be dead. Sounds like maybe he's been using it an awful lot. Do you have the # to his hotel room? Is he there with any collegues, maybe one you have the cell # of? I'm sure he'll get a hold of you soon, he wouldn't want you to worry.

I did call his hotel room a bunch of times, but he's not there. And no, he's not there with anyone we know. Just by himself. Maybe there's no cell phone towers to transmit a signal in the mountains of Canada??

Oh, dear, hugs to you Sofia! I'm sorry you have been worried! I hope by now you have heard from him. I'm sure, in your place, I'd be feeling the same way. I'm praying that you have heard from him by now and had a very restful night's sleep.

Hugs to you!!

Sofia, have you heard from him yet?


Erin is right, there are alot of parts up there that there is no cell coverage. Also, with the amount of snow thats been falling, the areas that get cell coverage can be iffy when there is snow. I havent heard of anything going wrong up there, so I'm sure he's fine. Post back when you heard from him.

I'm so sorry I haven't posted!! I didn't mean to leave the board with this and make anyone concerned for me. I was with my sister all day since pretty early this morning (we had morning coffee together), and when she left, I had to feed the kids dinner. We went shopping and went to lunch. It was fun!! And the kids were pretty good too. But I just didn't get a chance to come on here and post.

MICHAEL IS FINE!! Yay! He called last night while I was DYKing with Erin. I'm such a stupid worry wart! I got myself all worked up. I noticed no one even commented on my multiple sniffling sobbing DYKs because they were so stupid and off the wall. I apologize for my idiotic behavior, but here I was late at night alone in the house with the kids, and hadn't heard from him for hours, knowing he was going off alone in a strange car in a strange and remote location in possibly icy mountain roads and I just let my fear get the better of me. I worked myself into a tizzy.

When he finally called, I was so relieved to hear from him, the first thing I did was burst into tears! He felt so bad that I'd worried so much, but I was just glad he was OK. We then stayed on the phone talking for about 45 minutes, and it was so late, I just shut down the computer and went to bed and didn't post an update, when I should have. . . Anyway, he'd made it back to his hotel room all in one piece, LOL!! He actually had a really good time off alone by himself, but had no cell phone service and his battery died too. He said British Columbia is so gorgeous it blew his mind, and he wants to rent an RV next Summer and us all to go check it out (we'll hook up with you, Lesley!! :) ). And the good news is that he'll be home in a few hours! He's in the air heading east at about 600 mph right now :)

I'm sorry to post this and then disappear and leave you guys wondering. I didn't mean to give anyone concern. Thanks so much for thinking of us, you all are so caring and amazing, and I realize in seeing all these responses what amazing fantastic friends I've made on this board. If anything *had* happened (God forbid), I know you all would have been there for me to help me pick up the peaces. I love you all.
