The cannabis store honestly impressed me

Now that was a crucial mind blower

Maybe I would take a toke of a joint or something similar to that. But that was basically as far as I was willing to go when it came to recreational marijuana. Honestly, I was just a giant chicken when it came to cannabis. And that’s due to all the myths plus lies I had been told about marijuana for the course of my life. So when I would be at a celebration or something plus someone would offer me marijuana, I normally would decline in a kind fashion. I had been convinced that I might lose my head plus go stark raving mad if I got into recreational marijuana. Seems just ridiculous these days, huh? The more the myths wore off plus the more responsible people I knew who use cannabis products, the more my mind began to change about the reality of cannabis. Then my marriage ended plus I began dating a person who used sativa products all the time. While she enjoyed the effects of the sativa, her main motive for using cannabis was to help with anxiety. She encouraged me to try a small piece of an edible one particular evening as I absolutely don’t adore smoking of any kind. I have to say that I was easily blown away. This experience led to joining my lady on a shopping trip to the cannabis dispensary. Now that was a crucial mind blower. I didn’t know that it would be such a nice, well lit plus organized marijuana retail experience. It was basically like shopping at a gourmet food store! There was anything you could find or ask for when it came to marijuana for sale.

Just so hard to choose at the cannabis dispensary

This is all sort of new to me. Other than using recreational marijuana a few times in my early twenties, I didn’t really know much about marijuana products. I read about cannabis a great deal in an effort to sort of learn what to expect and which sort of cannabis products would be best for me. When the law changed allowing recreational marijuana use, I was eager to give it a try. This is due to the fact that I’m not much of a drinker or partier. However, I was interested in the calming, relaxing and perspective generating benefits of marijuana. From what I read, I was eager to try both sativa products as well as indica products. I was rather confident about myself when I made my first trip to the marijuana dispensary. But that confidence quickly oozed right out of me once I walked inside. I had no idea how many different cannabis products there would be to choose from. There was everything that a person could even think as far as marijuana for sale. The look on my face must have said it all because a staff member came right to my aid. He told me right away that while there was a lot to choose from, he could help me start with the basics. That was a relief and exactly what I needed. He put together a sampling of sativa products and indica products for me to try. I have found that I like them both for their different properties. But I know one thing for sure. I made the right call about recreational marijuana. It’s just what I was hoping it would be.

Now I see what all those old hippies were on about

To say that I have led a conventional life would be putting it mildly. I have been a rule follower my entire life. Having grown up in a strict religious household, I think I was terrified of ever thinking for myself. So it was a no brainer that I’d do the right thing, get an education, get a good job and settle down. That’s exactly what happened. Shoot, even in college, I was afraid of even smoking marijuana. The myths and misinformation I had been pounded with about cannabis over a lifetime were entrenched. I would literally walk out of a place if there were even pot brownies on the premises. Well all that straight living led me to hate my life and want to find out who I was. This led to a lot of self discovery. And thanks to the local cannabis spot, I’m continuing that work. This sort of thing may seem completely surreal to most. But for people like me, cannabis products have helped me get real about who I am and what I want. Some of the revelations have been tough. I’ve changed jobs and my wife and I have split. But my kids and I are closer now than we ever have because I am authentic and they get that. My eldest son, who is nearly 30, is dealing with similar feelings. He has found that certain indica strains for sale at the cannabis dispensary are really helping him determine what direction he wants to go. I’m thankful for the help I have received at the cannabis dispensary. And I’m no longer afraid to think for myself and live my own life.

Letting go of anxiety with help from marijuana

I learned more about sativa and finally took my friend up on a visit to the cannabis dispensary

The world I see is very different from most others. This is due to the fact that for as long as I can remember, I have dealt with crushing anxiety and depression. However, with the use of cannabis products, I am seeing more like other people more than I ever have. I can remember just watching people be happy and wondering why I was so damaged. It just didn’t make any sense to me that others could live such fully functioning lives and I could barely board the train for work. And just working through the day ended up being too much for me. Fortunately, I am now able to work remotely from home. Still, I have tried so many different medications, doctors, therapies and a host of other things to mitigate the suffering I endure due to my condition. But I just didn’t get very good or long lasting results from the meds. Then I started to read more about cannabis after a friend of mine encouraged me to consider marijuana for my situation. She too spent her life struggling just to live a life. However, she is so much better now that she found a sativa strain for sale that is working great for her. I learned more about sativa and finally took my friend up on a visit to the cannabis dispensary. The staff there set me up with an array of cannabis product samples they thought would help. It’s only been a short time but I’m feeling better than I have ever felt before.

Getting creative thanks to recreational marijuana

There was a time in my life when my art was my passion.

I even started out in college as a straight up visual arts major.

Unfortunately, I allowed parents, relatives and others to get in my ear. I changed my major to graphic design so I could get a good job. Well, I did just that and I have been working for nearly 7 years at that job. A recent trip to the cannabis dispensary has me looking at things a bit differently. When I was in school, myself and several of my classmates enjoyed recreational marijuana. Not only was it a great decompresser from school but using cannabis also was a great creative motivator. A friend came in town who uses sativa and indica products still and invited me to get something for myself. I chose an edible hybrid strain. And that night, I had a bit of an epiphany. While I am thankful to have my job and the decent living it provides, I just don’t like the trade off. There is a hole in my heart since I abandoned my passion. I saved half the hybrid strain edible for the next day. And I felt even more strongly that I wanted to pursue my passion. Due to that trip to the cannabis dispensary, I was able to work out a deal at work. I’ll maintain my job for now but they will help me go back to school to earn an MFA in the visual arts field that I have longed to be part of. So it appears I’ll even be able to advance my career while doing what I truly have wanted to do for a long time.

I miss the quarantine

Bring back the quarantine, please! I don’t even care why, it could be COVID, it could be some crazy new illness no one has ever heard of, like Fish Flu.

I really don’t care, I just loved being in lockdown, and I hate having to go back out into the world every day.

I am alone in this, or does anyone else out there miss the quarantine? Staying inside, having food delivered, talking to people only on video chat, this was heaven to me. I will admit the first couple of weeks was touch and go, but once my cannabis dispensary started doing curbside pick-up and delivery, I was set for life. The only thing that I missed during that time was being able to touch and smell the marijuana buds before I decided which one to buy, but that was a small sacrifice to make for not having to go outside. I don’t know if I am agoraphobic and have a fear of open spaces, or if I have social anxiety disorder, but either way the cannabis helps calm me. Cannabis calms me even more when I never have to interact with people in public and I can sit on my couch all day long. My smoke of choice is usually sativa, because I love the way it makes my body feel. Non smokers don’t realize that different strains and blends of cannabis have slightly different effects on your body and mind. For me the sativa works best to steady my nerves and give me a pleasant full-body high.

Love for cannabis runs in the family

It is so strange to me the way the parent-child dynamic changes over the years.

My siblings and I have all long since moved out of our parents home. We have our own careers, our own families, and now we interact with our parents in a very different way. I have to wonder if my parents are still growing, and changing as they age, or if they were always like this and just kept it hidden from their children? At the same time, some things I used to keep hidden from them I no longer bother to hide. Why would I care if my mom sees me smoking cannabis? I am far too old to “get in trouble” with my parents for using marijuana, and as I have come to find out, they use it, too. Last Thanksgiving, just before the big meal, I snuck outside to smoke a little sativa and work up my appetite. Much to my surprise I found both of my parents, who had also snuck outside to smoke some cannabis. They had a fat sack of Girl Scout Cookie Kush, which was something I had never actually tried before. Instead of talking about it, we just passed the bowl and the three of us got really ripped and giggling for Thanksgiving dinner. That experience of smoking cannabis with my folks for the first time was transformative, and made me look at them differently. I am not suggesting that you should try and smoke cannabis with your parents, but maybe you should at least give it a try?

It wasn’t hard to figure out grandfather was smoking some cannabis

You really could have knocked me over with a feather, the other day.

  • My Grandfather was just relaxing on his porch and he was smoking a cigarette.

Smoking a cigarette is really nothing unusual. Grandfather had basically always rolled his own cigarettes and sat on the porch in his rocker while smoking. Grandma was not a huge fan of the smell of cigarettes in the residence. I’m sure she hated it even more with what was going on now. I could smell the marijuana from a good distance. It is a rather distinct smell that isn’t very easy to miss. I smiled and asked if he was loving his day. He laughed and patted the chair next to him. Grandma came out and called him an idiot. She told me he had been to a modern doctor who had the impression that marijuana would be a fantastic way to help with his diabetes. They had spent a couple weeks getting the medical marijuana card and then the rest was basically self-explanatory. There was a marijuana dispensary within walking distance of their residence. They would go for a walk and go to get the marijuana products, then they made their way back home. She said she tried to talk him out of getting the marijuana pre-rolls, although he wanted those. He said he could help his diabetes and nobody would suspect he was doing anything other than sitting on the porch while smoking. Gran said he also picked up a few edibles during the marijuana dispensary. He liked the whole thought of being on the porch with a lollipop or other treats. He thought he might possibly convince everyone he was trying to quit smoking cigarettes, just like Kojak. I didn’t know who Kojak was, however he likely sucked on lollipops so he didn’t need to be bothered about smoking.

Didn’t realize my grandfather was smoking cannabis

Gran said he also decided to get some edibles while in the marijuana dispensary

You easily could have knocked me over fairly easily the other day. My Grandfather was just chilling out on his porch while smoking a cigarette. Smoking a cigarette is nothing out of the norm. Grandfather had always rolled his own cigarettes plus rested on the porch in his rocker while smoking. Grandma hated the smell of cigarettes in the property. I’m sure she hated it even more now. I could smell the marijuana from approximately 10 feet away. It is honestly a distinct stink that is not very easy to miss. I smiled plus asked if he was enjoying his day so far. He laughed plus patted the chair next to him. Grandma came out plus called him the biggest fool. She told me he had been to a new medical professional who had the belief that marijuana would be a wonderful way to help with his diabetes complications. They had spent many weeks getting the medical marijuana card plus then the rest was easily simple. There was a marijuana dispensary within walking range of their property. They would go for a walk plus pick up the marijuana products, then they walked back to their place. She said she made an attempt to talk him out of getting the marijuana pre-rolls, but he had to insist on it. He said he could help his diabetes plus nobody would realize he was doing anything other than sitting on the porch while smoking a little bit. Gran said he also decided to get some edibles while in the marijuana dispensary. He liked the whole thought of sitting on the porch with a lollipop. He thought he could convince pretty much everyone he was working hard to quit smoking, just like Kojak. I didn’t even know who Kojak was, despite the fact that I was sure he sucked on lollipops so he didn’t need to agonize about smoking.

Buying cannabis

I actually believed grandpa was smoking a normal cigarette

You definitely could have knocked me over with a feather the other day.

My Grandfather was out on his porch and he was smoking some type of cigarette.

Smoking a cigarette is totally common. Grandfather had pretty much always rolled his own cigarettes and relaxed on the porch in his rocker while smoking. Grandma didn’t enjoy the stink of cigarettes in the dwelling. I’m sure she hated it even more now. I could totally smell the marijuana from numerous feet away. It is a very unique smell that is especially strenuous to miss. I smiled and asked if he was having a wonderful day. He laughed and patted the chair next to him. Grandma came out and called him an ancient fool. She told me he had been to a modern healthcare professional who thought marijuana would be a wonderful way to help with his diabetes. They had spent a couple weeks getting the medical marijuana card and then the rest was relatively easy. There was a marijuana dispensary within walking distance of their dwelling. They would go for a walk and get the marijuana products, then they walked back to the dwelling. She said he tried to talk him out of getting the marijuana pre-rolls, but he had to insist. He said he could help his diabetes and nobody would actually believe he was doing anything other than resting on the porch while smoking. Gran said he also purchased a few edibles while in the marijuana dispensary. He liked the whole thought of sitting on the porch with a lollipop. He thought he could convince basically everyone he was trying to quit smoking, just like Kojak. I didn’t truly know who Kojak was, but I was certain he sucked on lollipops so he didn’t need to fret about smoking.
