don't get too cozy

See, that's what happens. You get cozy with thoughts of living in a new city and doing new things and planning girls weekends. You dream about going to the grand old opry or country music celebrity spottings. Perhaps I'd see Tim & Faith out lunching or Keith & Nicole sipping starbucks. It reminded me of all the cool designs from design star and the fabulous junk stores they went to to find the perfect touches for a room.

Then you get a call late Tuesday night and plans have drastically changed. Instead of the Music City you're going to...

Tupelo, Mississippi
birth place of Elvis Presley

I'll admit, like any plans, it's hard to adapt when they change at the last minute and the change throws off all of your plans, but my heart is softening. I'm warming to the idea of living in the honest-to-goodness south for a while and Memphis is only an hour away and you know I've already googled ~ Memphis Barbecue! You know I can't wait to dine with the Neely's. Ali, let me know when you can visit and we'll definitely pull out our blue suede shoes and tour the birthplace of Elvis.

I know it's a long shot, but any recommendations for Tupelo?

good old rocky top

Justin and I live in this sort of limbo life wondering where we'll wake up tomorrow morning. Not literally, but figuratively. In our line of work we're putting in our time in hopes that one day (soon) we'll be rewarded. Right now, the reward would simply be being settled. We both struggle with keeping our hearts and minds focused on our happiness and our flexibility. We know we're young and have very little major responsibilities, so we look forward to our adventures.





We got a call today to inform us that pack our bags, because we would be moving indefinitely to ...

Nashville, Tennessee

Wondering how we feel about it? We are so excited! There's always a chance when you live at your company's discretion that you'll end up just about anywhere from Podunk, Nowhere to Pidlyville, Elsewhere. To be headed for Nashville, a city full of life, culture and country music is more than we could have dreamed of at this point. Plus it's kind of cool and spunky that we'll pack our house, store our things and have no place to call our home. How's that for being unsettled?

Here's where I get needy and where you come in... Austin I know, Chicago I know, Lexington I can get by, but Nashville! Nashville is where I need some good suggestions... best places to eat, to do and have fun?
