YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY!
So when does he have to go back? Does he have to go back on the 26th in time for work on the 27th?
Come on Mr. Boss man! Give DBIL a few more days off so that he can enjoy our vacation!!!!!!
His boss is actually the good guy... the worry was that a position might open up for his promotion, and he'd have to jump right into it. If he's not there, he could potentially miss out and start the waiting game for a promotion all over again, and he's been eligible and waiting for a spot for a few months now.
From what we're looking at right now, he is guaranteed Fri Sept 25 & Sat Sept 26... and he is more than likely going to have Sun Sept 27 & Mon Sept 28 as well... meaning he will be with us for Grandmom's birthday lunch at 50s Prime Time!

Keep those fingers crossed! This is time off without taking vacation days so far... (two days off one week, two days off the next week) ...he should have a few vacation days now too, but with all the activity in the district right now, it would look much better for him to be back sooner and not take extra days now. If it weren't for the fact that we have to get him an airline ticket to return (and don't want to wait until the last minute when we risk no availability or higher fares), we could've been playing it by ear and potentially kept him with us for 2-3 days more! But something is better than nothing!
