Succinctly Yours is hosted by Grandma of Grandma's Goulash. She presents us with a photo and we are to use the photo as inspiration for a story of 140 characters OR 140 words. It doesn’t have to be exactly 140, just not more. The vast majority of us use the 140 character option.
If we want more of a challenge? Then we can use the word of the week in our stories. This is optional.
How does Grandma come up with the weekly word?
She doesn’t. She asks her daughter for a word without her having seen the picture. That makes it more fun for everyone. I hope you enjoy the results. Join us if you want. We'd love to have more to read!
Photo for Monday, August 1st.
Word Of The Week: proliferate
Pet pampering already proliferates, but when the Vanderhofs built a Jacuzzi just for their iguana, we all knew it had gone too far!!

ha haa very funny, loved this!
Excellent! Keeping up with the Vanderhofs must be difficult!
Now that is really over the top, those Vanderhofs just have more money than sense! LOL
Hilarious! Those Vanderhofs have more dollars than sense!
It won't be long now before "Lizzy" will Jacozy up to a spiny-scaly mate of her own choosing and BINGO! Hot tub "proliferation" magic!
Great take!

Hehehe...you aren't too far off the mark! Love this. It matches the photo perfectly with just the right amount of comic bite. Nice!
Great laugh! Love your concept of "Iguana Prima Donna". Sadly, your notion probably isn't all that far-fetched!!
:)
Oh, too too funny. I love it! I didn't incorporate the water part at all. Yours is perfect.
