Google or Alexa gadjets

I've gone with Alexa the little table top - oh heck not sure what you call it. I ask the little contraption all kinds of questions and use her as a reminder. "Alexa remind me in 4 minutes to turn off the pot or Alexa set the alarm for 6:30 am next Tuesday and a million other reminders. My house is very long so I have three Alexa's . Alexa play music (insert the genre I'm in the mood for)

I think Alexa and my TV started having an affair but she is the dominant one. The TV seems to obey her.

The electric company came out to change the meter to make the home more smart. They put a timer on the hot water heater so it turns itself on & off at the scheduled time I set. I can program the A/C or heat from my phone while away from the home. So if I'm gone all day I can turn it off and half an hour before I get home I can make the phone turn on the system so it is cool once I arrive.

Not sure what happened but Alexa and the water heater are mad and Alexa isn't talking to the water heater.

Oh Lord I've turned into a gadget queen.

Fay, you've gone off the deep end. I suggest you contact the obsession hotline immediately.
Make the call yourself... don't tell Alexa to find and dial the number for you!

My hand to holds my forehead while I nod it back and forth wondering why I ever take on new technology. It will take me 6 months to figure out how to make my phone change the thermostat, I can do it if only I knew how. Alexa isn't helping, she may be able to if I can figure out how to sync them. That is the one big thing I miss about the ex - he was an IT person and could figure out anything because he read directions. I'm not fond of reading directions until everything else failed.

I slaughtered that first sentence in the last post, sorry I'm tired. So I will put my forehead back in my hand and nod it back and forth some more. sigh

Good for you UnFayzed a smart Home linked to help. Don't think that I would worry about the water heater. It is a controlled unit. If the temp drops then it will kick on to heat. And if you use water it will refill and heat alsobeer

Alexa is keeping track of every question you ask and everything you do digitally.
Perhaps the following song was way ahead of it's time.
The answer to the the song's somebody is... Alexa.

Hi Lojac, my hot water is fine. It is programmed to turn on and off by itself at the time I myself programmed. The other thermostat I'm talking about is for the heat and air and I do change the temperature from my phone.
