DH arrived safely and will be spending a few days home before leaving with SS. Those 26 hrs of travel sure did a number on him! Technically he doesn't get SS until Friday, but he did go by BMs house to see him. One of DHs friends answered the door. It was kind of awkward for a minute bc this friend was in our wedding and we had heard, though never confirmed, that him and BM had a thing.
I honestly wouldn't even mind if they did get together bc he's a good guy and at least we would know who SS would be with.
