If you have a teenage driver, this picture is a good illustration of what happens when you drive too fast: http://chronicle.augusta.com/stories/latest/lat_701471.shtml. Thankfully, the driver walked away without any injuries, and the guy wire kept him from flipping into the Kroger gas station. Talk about the hand of God!

Powerful Tools for the Caregiver Class

Fridays, September 4-October 23

Doctors Hospital Classroom 2, Suite 110, MOB1
Cost: $25 for book and materials

This six-week program is for family and friends who are caring for others suffering from stroke, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's disease or similar conditions.

It provides you with the skills and confidence needed to better care for yourself while caring for others. Many participants report fewer feelings of anger, guilt and depression as well as increased confidence in coping with the demands of caregiving. They're also more likely to use community services that can help ease their burden.

Free Adult Day Care will be provided by AutumnCare, 3654 J. Dewey Gray Circle for each session. Pre-registration and a current PPD test is required for day care participants.

Please Call to Register: AutumnCare Adult Day Center at (706) 863-9888.

Cheapie of the Week - 8/31

Darlene Kalbach of Hephzibah correctly guessed that the Cheapie of the Week is The Fragrance Collection Candle by Glade. CVS has these for $6.99 with your ExtraCare Card through Saturday (9/5). You'll get $6.99 back in Extra Bucks when you buy it, making it free. But there's a $3 off printable coupon you can use on this, so you actually end up getting paid $3 to buy it! Make sure you enter your zip code on the Red Plum site so that the coupon will appear.
