What-sup with Google+, #ZNation Binge Watching, & #Finicky word prompt inspired #poem

Visit Sandee for Tuesday Fun!


Does anyone know what’s really going on with Google+?   Does this mean the shared platform will disappear in April or does this mean everything connected with Google+?  I disconnected Google+ from my blog share, so if you’re relying on that as a means of keeping in touch with me then you’re not going to see any post highlights there anymore.  

How was your weekend?  Ours was nice.  We didn’t do a lot but we did manage to take a drive along the newly opened section of the Foothills Parkway (tomorrow I’m sharing a few pix) on Friday and then Saturday, we drove over to Bryson City, North Carolina.  The forecast was warmer there then it was here, so we took a gamble to go with the hopes of strolling around town which we did.  It was awfully busy, though.  

 

Unfortunately, we didn’t do any house hunting this weekend.  I have only one place that we need to do a drive by and the others I need to show to DH on the computer to get his feedback.  I’ll keep you posted, though.

We finished watching the Syfy series, Z-Nation on Netflix.  I really hated seeing this come to an end after only five seasons.  The writers could’ve gone longer with the storyline but for reasons unknown, to me, the program wasn’t renewed by the network.  The writers concluded the show to not leave anyone in the lurches. I did learn that there’s a prequel (8-episodes) in the works, Black Summer, that depicts the beginning of the zombie apocalypse with a mother looking for her daughter.  I’m not sure that we’ll give it a try because the one thing we very much did not like about Z-Nation is the domineering woman factor.  It’s an in your face statement that says a woman can do whatever a man can.  That’s not entirely true. She can take care of herself within reason and can outsmart those physically stronger but she can not take down a man with her bare hands like TV & movie characters.  This is a lie giving young girls (and women) a false sense of what they are physically equipped to handle. 

What’s the weather doing in your neck of the woods? Temperature wise not so bad but it’s sure going to be a wet week.

More random giggles for Tuesday Fun


Are you a poet?  Me not so much but I do try to give it a stab every now and then.  One of the best bloggers on the net you’ll find is Eugenia at BrewNSpew with her Tuesday Chatter sessions, she’ll toss a word/express of the week to get your mojo cooking.  This week word is – finicky(adjective) – fussy about one’s needs or requirements. Showing or requiring great attention to detail. Synonyms – overcritical, difficult, awkward, exacting, demanding, perfectionist.

 

This morning, I spoke to DD#1 and while we talked I could hear my little Angelina fussing in the background and just like that today’s word prompt inspired this verse!

 

Little Baby

Little baby so sweet
Sometimes attention you seek
Dries of fussing
Disguise for feeding
Diaper changing
Or simply entertaining
Mama quietens those sighings
Difficult? Not purposely!
Finicky? Mostly certainly!

 

Babies aren’t really finicky but we all know how magical a mother’s touch is for little ones. 🙂  I’m linking up taking a coffee break for some with Random Tuesday Thoughts with Stacy Uncorked this morning and you’re invited to come with and let me remind you to visit again tomorrow for not-so Wordless Wednesday.
