Carol Perkins: Happy Birthday to Me Previous Column: The Bake Sale By Carol Perkins My good friend and former co-host of Susan and Carol-Unscripted told me this story, which was too good not to share. She has lived with her daughter Emily and her family for most of the year, which explains the location of this account. Now for Susan Chambers' latest adventure: "I don't remember how I ended up there. Evidently, I hit my head trying to get out of bed because later, a knot popped out large enough that my daughter took me to Urgent Care. That's my only explanation for finding myself under my bed with no way to get out. I was trapped. When I finally 'came to,' my face was inches from the bed slats, my nose rubbing against the wood. I yelled and yelled, but the mattress must have muffled my weak voice.

Antler Alert reminds Kentuckians watch for deer From Naitore Djigbenou/Allen Blair Frankfort, KY - To promote safer highways, the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) is reminding motorists to watch out for deer and other wildlife on roadways this fall and winter as state transportation officials issue the annual Antler Alert. Nearly half of all deer collisions occur during the last three months of the year. "Crashes involving large animals tend to increase from October through December," said KYTC State Highway Engineer James Ballinger. "Increased movement by deer and reduced visibility on roadways, especially between dawn and dusk, can create hazardous driving conditions. That's why we take time out each year to remind motorists to wear their seatbelt, eliminate distractions, and take other precautions when animals are on the move." The Transportation Cabinet offers these driving tips to help improve safety: Article continues... click here to read the whole article, or to share, print, or bookmark it. 2024-10-19 11:50:07 | Comments
