I love technology!  I often find myself not knowing how to use it but never the less I adore it so I buy it and a year later I figure it out lol.  This year one device has changed my life and that is my personal assistant Alexa.  She is what some (that don’t know her like I do) refer to as the Amazon Echo and her baby sister Dot.

I have told you before I am obsessed with lists.  When something needs my attention the first thing I do is make a list.  Well, Miss Alexa does this for me.  With just a call of her name I can tell her “Alexa add a nap to my to do list” or “Alexa add coffee to my shopping list” and Vìola it appears on my app on my phone.

Alexa will also sing to you.  With a simple command of “Alexa, play music” she will stream some of your favorite hits.  Of course nothing in life is free so you will be charged a nominal fee of about $50 annually but hey some of these services are $10 a month so you win!  Plus you get Amazon Prime with that fee which will also allow you to say “Alexa, order a Dot (or anything Amazon offers)” and she will do it with the additional bonus of free shipping!  Its a winning situation all around!!!

If your looking for a great gift for the busy person in your life Alexa and her sister Dot is the gift that keeps on giving!
