Hi Wonka. Don't have much in the way of details yet as W didn't tell me, she was answering my daughters question. Looks like somewhere around the 20th of May but W can never get a straight answer from him and he usually just shows up when he feels like. For years now my W would ask him not to come until the kids were out of school and he would just ignore her a do what HE wanted! As for getting time off, I doubt it as my business is in make or break mode and if W is leaving I'd better do all I can to "make" it!
My daughters have disliked this man from the time they were old enough to understand his put downs and selfish, uncaring attitude. When they were little, around 9-10 they would say "grand pa ____ creeps me out" as they got older they would just come out and say they didn't like him or avoided him altogether. When my youngest was 7 and we were there for his fathers memorial service (this was when he told my W he wanted to make up for all the bad things he had done but only her, no husband, no kids) he came to me on the 3rd day I was there (W had been there with the kids for 3 weeks before I got there to help him) and said he was having a dinner party for my W but there was no room for me or my 7 year old. He told us to just entertain ourselves and we could eat later! There were 12 people there but no room for only my D and I! Then at one point he came out and yelled because the TV which was on to entertain my hungry D was to loud and bothering them and made my D cry. She still remembers what we were watching that day and she's 14.
