I consider Fleming County east - but I guess if you are in the more northern part close to Maysville that would be north. My daughter is a Pharm.D. - took a job in Maysville and hated it. I always thought that would be a great town to live in - but too small for her. Son-in-law and family are in Covington.

I'v always been language-challenged
:) but that's good to know and think about!

this should be challenged in court
This is NOT a communicable disease and should NOT be mandatory. What about possible side effects, what about 20 years down the line when they discover it caused a new problem. No. It is wrong to make this mandatory. This regards one's personal health decisions, for their CHILD no less. What next?

Ok, my big boy cat is weight challenged
I refuse to hurt his feeling and say (fat)around him so let's just keep at weight challenged. Took him to the vet today as noticed his coat was not shiny like his brothers and he was so big wanted to see if possible diabetes or thyroid and could go from there. He, his lighter-weight brother and younger half sister have all been grazers. I keep the food bowls full in the day with wet and dry food when I went to bed, treats thru the day. Well, good times are up and now vet says labs ok and wants to get him on diet. Vet has said 2x a day 1/3rd cup of food and maybe 2 little pieces of the dry food as a treat. He is 4 years old and 23 lbs. He is a BIGGGG boy. Anyone else out there who has had to put their furries on diets and how did yours turn out?

Being autistic vs. being mentally challenged

What's the difference between these two?

I am soooo decorating challenged and need help. I want to put some color

on my bedrom walls, I'm thinking a light sage color. If I paint the walls the sage color, does the ceiling get painted the same or an off/white? If I paint the ceiling the same color as the walls wont the room feel much smaller and "cave" like? I have comforter with olive, sage, dark brown colors. Average size room with windows on 2 walls so there will be light coming in.

Thanks for your ideas.

With my luck, my "weight challenged" cat would eat the ball!
LOL!

Agree...and the gang mentality thing is often quick to surface when challenged. Ignore these
