The One Where Alexa Tries To Break Me

I love my social media I really do but sometimes it has a side to it I don't like , the side where it can be directorial imposing the latest social media rules onto you . I mean I don't vlog I have dabbled yes but it's not a medium I excel in even though I'm quite quirky when I do it . You see blogging and social media gives me the confidence to do stuff I ordinally would not to. I blog in my own way , I tweet in my own way , I Facebook in my own way I do things by own way , I'm not against advice ~ advice which is constructive.


I learnt many years ago to my cost that everyone is not a social media luvvy and that's ok there is enough of us blogger s, vloggers and social media gurus to make the world go around . I do what I do and you do what you do simple as .   

I'm trying to get to Alexa to listen to me and it isn't working.

" Alexa play Butterfly by A~ Ha "

Alexa " Here's Butterfly by Cliff Richard "  

No Alexa play " A~ Ha Butterfly "

Alexa " Here's a medley of songs by Wolf Alice "



" Alexa Noooooooooooo"


Who is Wolf Alice ?


"Alexa play A~ Ha Butterfly "


Alexa " playing the lost boy in New York Simon and Garfunkel "


Arrrrrgh

I have patience of a saint I truly have after all as I grew up in the 1980s and owned a Spectrum 48 K< Rich.

Owning a Spectrum 48 K you learnt patience by loading the games onto your Spectrum 48 k you loaded the tapes whilst listening to that distinctive sound only made by loading Spectrum games. 

What ever you do if you own a Alexa don't ask it to sing to you ...


I'm not sure who is young to break first me or Alexa ...

Life's all about Fluffing Your Pillows

Life is all about fluffing your new pillows !


Only day ago I was trying to get to sleep and Mr T was snoring but snoring just at the point when I was trying to drift off , now I snore myself I have been told but I seem to snore later on. On the night in question I just had enough and just went off and went downstairs. Snoring can have a real impact upon your life yesterday I was like a functioning zombie. I as a snorer there isn't really a lot I can take  as I have asthma but Mr T we are trying the various snoring sprays and so far they really are not doing a great deal.

Change your sleeping height

Pillows for me always seem to die and I don't really like to spend to much money on them as I know I will have to change them at some near point. I have to sleep with 2 pillows and the though of sleeping on £30 pounds of pillow did seem like I was kamikaze with my money. W had decent pillows on the top ones we had got from Costco and for 2 pillows it was a good price , I can't remember what exactly but it didn't break the bank. We decided on some firm pillows from Sainsbury's Silent Night ones that were £15 each to put on the bottom in conjunction with the pillows that were ok , one night in it seems to have worked I am not hailing a miracle or anything.

I do think it is important to have a comfortable sleeping height , of course you don't have to have 2 pillows do there is where a deep pillow would come in. I saw a pillow at the supermarket that I had never seen before and it was a heigh adjustable pillow which seemed amazing and that might be the one to go for if you like the one pillow perhaps.


Make sure you're hydrated 

It's essential to drink enough in the day , I try try try not to drink to much tea before bedtime and stick to water or cordial but tea is my weakness I just love it so so much.


Try a Pillow Spray 


I'm trying at the moment a pillow mist from Avon and so far it seems to be working I mean I'm not going to sleep for a hundred years like sleeping beauty ....  You just spritz your pillows and top your quilt before you go to bed and you'll be slipping into a slumber in no time.

Eyejusters Glasses Review And Competition

Mr T has got some new glasses big yay.

He's at that stage where he needs some reading glasses ~ his eye sighted really isn't that terrible but he needs a little help with seeing !

First Glance

First glance they look like any other normal pair of glasses but there is a hidden secret to them which I will reveal to you.







Eyejusters Secret

The pair my husband was sent was a pair of combination glasses in black .You can chose from stainless steel or combination frames  ranging from £69 to £79 that come with high quality finishes, acetate or stainless steel arms and essential to a glasses wearer which comfortable nosepads .





Eyejusters have brought a unique glasses product to the market by using something called a SlideLens





The really clever (James Bond ) type technology bit is the adjustment wheels which are located discreetly behind the frame.

You can adjust each lens independently of each other so allowing for the individual wearers needs , I can think of anyone I know that has the same prescription for each eye.

The lenses are adjustable from between +0.00 to +3.00 Dioptres which should cover mist cases of mild longsightedness.






You don't need any professionals to help you with these glasses as you can adjust yourself till right with a reading test.

See I would love  pair of these myself but I am out of the range for these sadly ! stamps foot !

Mr T loves the glasses !

Dreaming Big With Mulitilotto

I love travel which is why this summer we are heading off to Rome and travel really does give you a lust for life but there's one thing that can get in the way of travel and that's money ! You can have many amazing trips on a limited budget I'm proof of that but just occasionally I do like a holiday blow out if there's a little more cash sitting in my bank account that's not to say I'm frittering all my cash away but I might pick a location that's really special like Washington D.C. I've worked for that cash / husband had worked for it  also ! so it's a reward to us as a family to have a special trip.










But if I was to say win some cash from doing the lottery then at the moment then I'd really like to help my son with his university costs as the costs are horrendous and it seems unfair to them before they've even got going with their lives and careers. And the extra cash would really be a bonus to my son in helping him with his archaeology degree and over the coming years he's going to have to be the master of frugal plus thinking off all those pasta recipes.

Multilotto is where you can bet on lotteries from all round the world but remember you have to be 18 or older to do this. You can play everything from Powerball and Mega Milliins in the USA to the EuroMillions which currently has a jackpot of £25,600,000

Responsible gaming is important that's why Multilotto has such a section which can be accessed from 'My Account' it is imperatively clear that you must be 18 or older to open an account with Multilotto.You can set a wager limit and give yourself a timeout from the account for a time period of your choosing,there is an option to be permanently excluded from the account.

I would love to be one of those people that just happens to find a winning lottery ticket in my handbag that I had long forgotten about! With Multilotto there are many popular games such as EuroMillions ,Powerball also you can play Casino games such as slots,table games ,video poker etc  , there is even a casino school on the site.

Which lottery or casino game would you like to have a go at ?

This is a collaboration post.

Signs That Your Cat Has Overtaken Your Life

Signs that your cat has overtaken your life :



You are the last one to bed because you are letting the cat out the front door even though it has a perfectly functional cat flap , then you are still standing at the door because 30 seconds later the cat now wants to come in.Well they never sung the song  "Who let the cats out ?" because that very same person as I mentioned let the cat in again 30 seconds later.Cats have reputations low matienance pets but anyone who has actually has a cat simply knows that this isn't true they infiltrate your daily life by stealth or just plainly in your face /personal space type (cat)attitude they are are aloof powerhouse of fur and claws like a four legged mafia.

 



Your cat may develop a drama queen attitude and suddenly just flop down like Woody out of Toy Story demanding you tickle their tummy but then running away and repeating the sudden flopping down. They say when a cat does this it is at its much relaxed but seriously I think it is some sort of exercise routine for us human beings !




A cat will meow at you but it is with varying degrees of of loudness a cat says meow


you say


"I know "


other times they will just sit at their foot bowl and you're like


"What do you want  ?, tell me ..."



And you just get stony silence and the death stare of aloofness.











Your cat will eat before you , it is the unwritten law of a cat owning you , you did now that a cat owns you right ?! Seriously don't even sit down to eat before feeding them because they will literally be in your face judging your every guilty bite that you take. Your cat is a gourmet and will not like the expensive cat food that you brought 10 boxes off because they really liked it last week . This is a new week a new trend in cat food is out there and you didn't know , well shame on you !



Nothing belongs to you nope even your house your cat owns that why as mentioned in the first paragraph do you think you open the front door for them !


Your cat takes up more room that you could actually think was possible , your cat will be spreading themselves out like 18th century corpulent French landowner ( pre French Revolution) . You can and will find yourself marginalised to a small corner one of a cats hashtag I think is #thuglife .




Obviously there is no hope for me as obviously my blog is centred on my cat ( the blog started around my late cat Rollie ) and now I have Jack left but he is still overtaking family life, indeed they are taking over the internet still.




Least a Goldfish won't take over your life ....
