Answers To Comments

 I haven't done "Answers To Comments" here before (I think) but there have been some questions...

*  I mentioned a difficulty in getting some flowers in April.  Pilch asked "Would Lowe's let you pick them up instead?  Oddly, no.  Their website specifically said they were not open for onsite shopping.  Their garden center was not open yet.  And at $15 for online order delivery, I passed them by.

*  My new Brother color/toner printer was driving me crazy.  I finally found a small reference to having the printer plugged into a different wall outlet than the computer/router.  It worked.  Why that matters is beyond my understanding, since both outlets are on the same circuit.  But Pilch also commented "Glad you figured it out".  So am I.  👍

*  There was another issue about prescription cat food.  Marley needs a kidney-care diet and I have tried the 2 types of Hill's and the 3 of Royal Canin.  He won't eat any of the Hill's stuff.  Royal Can comes in 3 types (E, T, and T).  E is chicken liver.  T is pork liver and chicken liver.  D is T with some Salmon.  He will eat Royal Canin  T and D.  

He doesn't really like either but will eat it.  The weird thing is that Taz and Binq adore the stuff!  They nose into his bowl if I turn my back for a moment.  I had to buy a few pink foodbowls so I could keep track of which one had Marley's food and move them around to keep Marley's bowl under his nose.

Getting prescription canned cat food is tricky online.  Petsmart sells it in store (and I have to show the prescription each time), but they will stop offerring it in October because they are closing down their Vet connection.  Amazon and Chewy sell it but say the Vet has to approve.  My Vet says they don't approve online vendor requests.   Catch-22!

Pilch commented "Not sure if it is my state or a law all over, but they make you get the script from the vet and send it in now instead of having the vet contact them".  I can't find where to send it to Amazon or Chewy yet, but I have a few months to figure it out.

*  I've been having photo problems with iCloud.  It ruined my saved photos folders/file structure on the desktop.  I think I've escaped iCloud and got the photos back...

Messymimi commented "It's weird. I have to upload all photos directly from my phone even though I write on the computer. Supposedly it's all in the cloud, but I can't get it to come down to Earth".  I really understood that comment.  I don't understand iCloud either.  Mostly, I can't get it to work the way I want.  I really appreciated that comment!

*  I have a difficult dental situation.  The dentist says "your teeth are all beat to Hell.  You need a complete to top row of crowns at least".  The problem is whether to suffer 12 crowns in 8 visits or risk having some teeth just "break".  I go in for a detailed "consult" exam next week about that.  My dentist can do crowns with me awake but numbed.  I'm wondering about sedation implants (which my dentist doesn't do).  It will be an interesting "consult" and a difficult decision either way.

But Messymimi commented "I'm sorry to hear this. It's not fun to have dental work".  I appreciated that.
