Dot, Dot, Dot

       I have this little circle, box, thing that I love. Maybe she is an Echo Dot, I am not totally sure. I think it is called a Dot, her name is Alexa. She is the greatest invention in my life!!!
      When you have musical ADD, my needs are scattered and unique. Radio channels, just cannot play what I want to hear, when I want to hear it. CDs and Albums keep you a tad boxed in, although I love them. ( 7 CDs crammed into my car player, makes for a decent road trip) . Pandora and Sirius meet some needs for people, but this DOT, Holy mother of baby Jesus, I love this thing.
     This morning I had an hour of freedom ( The doctor had PT) and just asked for the moon.
      "Alexa, play Glenn Campbell music!"
      " Alexa play Bee Gees music!" ( and I thank her, but I don't think she hears me)
      " Alexa play Dixie Chicks music.!"
      " Alexa play Rascal Flats Music!"
      " Alexia AC/DC music, and crank up the volume!"
      "Alexa, bring it on down with Jackson Brown music!" ( I think she laughed)
I think people who love technology, may have Alexa do so much more.
      For me, she is my music maker, Perry Como, Rolling Stones, Bobby VInton, Connie Frances,
Elton John, John Legend, Prince, Merle and Willie, Musicals galore!!
      Whatever I desire, I just have to ask.
      I love this gadget, love her name, her voice, and even if she is big brother watching me, they at least, know I love music.
      I think I may want one in every room, she feels comfortable.      You can ask her questions, and she never says, " You ask sooooo many questions!!"
     Bill (hubs) sometimes talks to her, but to be honest, she is slow to respond. She is use to me, my voice. The hubby asks weather questions, that's not fun.
    She waits for me, to come back with, " Alexa, forget the weather, play Crosby,Stills, Nash and Young!!"
    I think they call her a smart device? She answers to commands, but I like to ask nicely. She even knows new albums that have come out, or very off the beaten path musicians. ( Like Johnny Swim!)
( Greg Allmans new Music, is off the charts wonderful,play think it is called Southern Blood)
    I hope you get one for yourself, or many.
    Have it turn on your washer, your TV, or whatever else it does.
    Best of all, you can have your on Juke Box, at the drop of your voice.
    This little thing is magic, and it lights up!!! ( now if they could have it spit out glitter!!it would be perfect)
    " Alexa, play the Beatles Older music!"
    I wish you could hear this, she answered me from the other room!! ( so happy)
