I wish they would stop with the ads for Alexa enabled products...

They are confusing the shit out of my house.

I had to go ogle Alexa because I don't know what it is.

Yes life is too complicated. Someone was trying to push a smart phone on me. I know, I should. But I have a laptop. I like to get away from the internet. I can't handle keeping up with what I do have. I need to ditch one pc, upgrade another, replace the laptop, backup the hard drives on cloud or hard drives. Don't even talk to me about SSD. They told me they're not permanent any more than SATA, so WHY are people going bonkers over SSD?

THen there's the house. Maintenance. Maintenance. And the self. I want to read good books. I ditched cable TV.

Life is just too complicated. I'm trying to simpify.
