Wonderwoody - I am not happy.
Look we just had a "big" holiday weekend. Some people might have combined this with a few vacation days. I think you are jumping the gun, here.
"At my age" ANYTHING could happen. I could have an attack or stroke any minute. Family emergencies "happen."
Here's the thing. "If he scammed you" a few days isn't going to matter. "It's already happened." If he DID have some glitch that got him "busy," it makes you look like a whiner.
