Twang Town Lowdown - Tuesday December 1st

Miranda Lambert admits she's had some lonely nights since her divorce from Blake Shelton, and there's probably more of that to come.

But she also knows that that's part of the process of getting through the tough times. She tells Cosmopolitan, "It's about living in the moment and feeling every tinge of pain, then waking up the next day and going, 'All right, I'm going to ride my ponies. I'm going to have a girls' night.' That's where I am. That's where I'm gonna live."

'Ran has some great stuff up ahead. On December 12th, she'll accept the Nashville Symphony's Harmony Award for her contributions to the city's music community.
