Late Wednesday evening, Danica asked if I could get her to work for 8 o'clock on Thursday morning. In case it might slip my mind in the morning I asked Alexa to set a reminder at 7. I would be possible that I would be up but that I might forget about Danica when I began to do my usual morning things. Then, I thought, "What if I am not already awake? I might not hear Alexa because I wouldn't have my ears (hearing aids) in."
Sure enough, I was still asleep at 7, and so I didn't hear Alexa. However, Sue of the cat-like ears did hear from the other room and came in to wake me. However, I had also thought to have Siri waken me at 7:10, and sure enough, my watch vibrated.
It's good to have a failsafe, and I had two — Sue and Siri.
And it was great to see my beautiful granddaughter s0 early in the morning. It does my grandfather's heart good.
Of course, I have photos to post too.
Sue took me back to the bridge quite early on the previous morning to look for her elusive spring photo. Alas, she didn't get what she wanted, but I got two photos that satisfied me. The sun was rising over the corner of the former Boulton Brown Mill, now Boulton Apartments (I think).
These modern electronics come in handy for sure. Getting up early served a dual purpose, your granddaughter and sunrise and what a great start to the day.
ReplyDeleteHappy May Day! I saw the sun rise over the ridge this morning at 630. That was a treat.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sunrise for a perfect start to May! I use the alarm on my ipad if I need to get up early. I don't know if I could handle an Alexa, but my sister does love hers!
ReplyDeleteI just love silhouettes over sunrises (or sunsets). These are lovely.
