Good morning!

The Amazon Echo and Alexa are a "big thing" right now. In November, Mike decided we needed an Alexa too. It's got some practical uses for us. On the other hand, it's just a little bit spooky and "sci-fi". We tried a Firestick for the tv, but it didn't work with our set so we returned it.

Do you have the amazon Echo/Alexa? Do you want one?

We have a couple different ones. DH is a big fan. I forget its around most of the time. Be sure to have Alexa tell you a joke or sing a song for you.

We have a google one because when we bought my phone they gave it to us for a super deal. We have to say Hey Google to get its attention. I never use it but DH tells it to set the timer all the time. My grandkids love to ask it why are fire engines painted red. haha

My Milwaukee grandkids (and their dad) love to tell their Alexa to .... um .... fart. Hamish (he's 6) especially thinks it's funny. Mike and I use our phone apps to keep a running grocery list. It's on both phones, so whoever has time can run to the store when we need a few things. It has some practical applications for someone with movement limitations, which was the excuse Mike used to buy it.

I don’t have one, and I didn’t ’t have any plans on getting one in the near future, but now you got me thinking 🤔 😆 😂 🤣
