Nashville, or "Nashty" as Brandon likes to call it, was fun. Shopping happened... $658 worth of clothes for $200!! Plus B found a suit that was on mega sale, so we got that for him. We also went to The Pharmacy for awesome burgers and super yummy root beer (It's on tap, too!!) If you live near Nashville, and you haven't been there before, I encourage you to go. That place has the art of hamburger making perfected. Seriously.
I also want to talk about how I got my blog title. I have been hooked on City and Colour's song "The Girl" for a good while now, mainly because the husband said it reminds him of me. And at that time, I would have agreed--I was so willing to put my dreams on hold for his dreams, his wants, and his needs. I was the girl in that song. I never asked for fancy things because I didn't want them. God was enough. Brandon was enough. I had all that I need. Somewhere between that moment and now, things have changed so much--I have changed so much. I have become the girl that asks for a new house, more jewelry, more money, etc. I never EVER thought I would be so materialistic. I want to be me. My God is enough. A new job won't provide--He will. More jewelry won't make me happier--He will. A huge house I made up the plans for won't make my life complete--He will. All this to say, I am ready to get back to being "The Girl" my husband married. I desperately desire happiness solely provided by God.
Help me get there? Prayer request for the week: I need to rely on God at all times, not just when I feel like it. (I am certain this is my biggest struggle.)
