So after our 'meeting' about him moving out that went well, SS23 came home from work sick the last two days. I only found out because I get home earlier than he does on Tuesdays, and yesterday I had a half day. He had left for work as usual. So I was surprised to see him there. He said his gf has the flu, and he thought he might have it too. He looked perfectly fine to me...was out polishing his car with the headphones and facetime with gf glued to him as per usual. Anyway, he packed up most of his stuff yesterday, took it to bm's house. Came back stayed the night. This morning he was not up before 7, when he is supposed to be at work. I went down and just said, dude it's after 7. He gets up, packs the rest of his stuff loads it in the car. I didn't hear him call in to work at all, but he might have texted his manager, I don't know. I asked for the house key, he gave me a hug, and off he went. YAY.

But I can't help but wonder what would have happened if I had left for work and let him sleep? My guess is that he was planning another "sick" day so he could leisurely hang out and load his stuff up to take to bm's house. I am disappointed that with dh out of town for work, he suddenly decides not to go in to their workplace - where dh got him the job. DH's managers and the owners LOVE DH, so they took a chance on SS23, and for the most part he's done well. So, I just don't get it.
I also wonder why he waited til DH was out of town to decide to move out early, not that I'm complaining! Seems like a little bit of a slap in the face.

I THINK I did the right thing by getting the key back. I'm pretty sure he didn't make a copy. There is no way I want that key falling into bm's hands, or even ss finding out we are gone some weekend and having gf over there. Ya never know.
