So this weekend was uneventful for me other than the odd phone call from Luke and making Jacks laugh on Saturday via the phone. It rained thanks to the tropical storm that scraped past us so I didn’t work too hard.
Yesterday I would work – a lot! And accomplished more than expected, so running down to the truck detail shop to pester Trace was in order for the day. It was late and thankfully it appeared to be cooling off somewhat. Trace was all mucked up from doing an interior of a bus they were modifying for some rock group.
He was smiling the whole time as insulation and particle wood blew around him. “Dude you really have been working out!” I screeched at him. I was jealous because I haven’t had time to use the Bow-flex in about 2 weeks or more. (I’m sure he and Jacks are going to be bigger than me!) The only thing bigger than his biceps and pecks was the smile.
I had to ask what was up with the grin…..
WARNING!! Newsflash!
He announced that he and Michele are looking for a place to move in together, I stood there in awe. The Preachers Son is going to live in sin! He told me that he proposed to her Sunday and she of course said yes. They weren’t going to move in until they were married, which is going to be very soon, if he could, it would be this afternoon. He is going to let Michelle do all the planning and arrangements (girl stuff) and he would just tag along with her.
If all goes well there will be an August wedding, I can’t wait to call Jacks and let him in on the 411… maybe I should let Trace… Nah!!
Trace was all in a flutter over it, he couldn’t believe she would say yes to him. – I can’t either —I’m joking.
After his first girlfriend dumped him in front of everyone and his mama, he was bitter. Then he met someone that he was crazy about, the very weekend he was to go visit her she sends him a “Dear John” e-mail, never to be heard from again. I didn’t think he would ever get over that one, possibly because he still wonders what he did wrong in that relationship. Amy insists she got preggers and didn’t want him to see. (Don’t ask me why, I think that’s just girl thoughts).
For the longest time he was bitter, would go out and drink every night and despised the opposite sex, which worried me for a while. He hated when Jacks would be interested in someone and try to break it up. Eventually he calmed down, put his life back into perspective and started singing. That’s how he met Michelle basically, she would go listen to him play, where ever it may have been.
He said today he wanted me to help with arrangements on apartment hunting for him. I said sure on that. I wonder how Julie feels about this. She and Michelle aren’t that close from what I gather, she doesn’t want to give up her big brother just yet. Of course Julie still foams at the mouth for Jacks…I say he will marry her some day.
So for the next couple of days and probably posts its going to be a smattering of Trace and his adventures in wedded bliss….
