I guess it was bound to happen.  Everyone said that it would.  The older I get the more forgetful I become.  Maybe it is also a part of becoming a mother.  They do say you lose valuable brain cells when you are pregnant and while you are breastfeeding.  Then, you usually have another child before you can regain what your’ve lost.  Yes, let’s go with that.  At any rate, I sometimes need a little extra assistance when it comes to remembering things.  Enter The O!  This little fella is not only adorable, but is super smart.

The package comes with four different O’s and you can decide which colors are more your style.  I personally like the colorful tukano.  Once your package arrives you will download The O app to your iPhone or Android device.  From there the app will guide you through so that you can set up each and every item, the location and the parameters.  Once you and your phone travel far enough away from the item you need to remember, an alarm will sound on your phone and a message will pop up.  This is genius, I tell you!  Genius!

One of my favorite features is that it can alert you to take your umbrella when it sees that rain is predicted.  Once you walk out the door without your umbrella it will give you an alert.  How cool is that?  This is the next best thing to a personal assistant (and definitely cheaper).  The O starts at $79 and has a few add-ons if you wish.  I also received the key chain which can be clipped not only to my keys, but to bags and jacket zippers.
