Tomorrow is the perfect day to take your reading outside!

Join us for our audiobook walk and enjoy a relaxed fall morning with stories in your ears and fresh air all around.

Just cue up your favorite audiobook (Libby or Libro.fm are great options!) and meet us at Plenty Bookshop tomorrow at 10am. We’ll head out for an easy walk along the Tennessee Central Trail for about an hour, then return to the shop to unwind, browse the shelves, and spend a little cozy time together.

No discussion required, just movement, listening, and community.

We’d love to see you there! RSVP on our website with the link on our bio.

Each year, people ask if there really are more instances of domestic violence on Superbowl Sunday.

While domestic violence is a gravely serious issue every day of the year, there's no evidence to suggest it occurs more often during the Superbowl than at other times.

However, this annual query does serve as a reminder of the importance of anger management – whether you're disappointed in the performance of your favorite football team or are wrestling with deeper issues.

If your anger is frequent or long-lasting, or if your spouse believes you have an anger management problem, or if your job is on the line because you become hot-tempered at work, then contact PLS Resources at (931) 644-3147 or patriciasmithlpc@gmail.com to learn about our Anger Management Solutions.

Let me teach you how to control your anger before it controls you.
