My dad uses marijuana to help with chronic pain

Chronic pain is a problem that affects millions of people.

Chronic pain can be caused by a number of different ailments and diseases.

Many people used to treat these chronic pain problems with opioids, but the legalization of medical marijuana has given patients a different route and option. I never thought my dad would use medical marijuana. He always said that the stuff was the devil’s lettuce. He lectured my sister’s and I about the dangers of doing drugs and showed us pictures of our brain frying like eggs and bacon if we ever used marijuana. Now that I am an adult, I know that is not true at all, but I was sure scared when I was a kid. I definitely never thought that my dad was going to ever try medical marijuana. The first time that I went to his house and smelled marijuana, I didn’t want to say anything at all. I didn’t want to even bring up marijuana in front of my dad. I didn’t say anything the second or third time either, but the last time I went to see my dad, I finally asked him if he was using medical marijuana products. We had a long discussion and he told me that the doctor thought it would help with his chronic pain problems. I was glad to hear that marijuana had helped a great deal and was still helping. My dad had to admit to me that he was wrong all of those years and I know that wasn’t very easy for him to do.

Reduced the number of store phone calls

For a long time I was aware that I was on the phone constantly. There were frequent calls to the store. I realized that my budtenders couldn’t really do anything other than answer the phone. They weren’t able to push sales on the floor or interact with the customers. It was constant questions like how late is the store open? Do we offer delivery services? What is the deal of the week? I got so annoyed with it. I actually thought about getting rid of our phone. I talked to a buddy of mine about it. He works for a digital marketing company. My friend recommended optimizing my website. He told me that my website didn’t have any information on it. It basically listed my business and that was it. I was able to get a deal through him on a new web design. Now people can look through the online menu rather than call the store. I have a budtender update the site every week to showcase what deals are going on. We even have facebook, twitter and a google business listing. Those deals are highlighted there. Another thing is that curbside pickup and cannabis delivery are so much easier since the website takes care of that. Now we hardly get phone calls to the store. My budtenders love this freedom. I am glad that I don’t hear a ringing phone in the background every single day. I finally get peace and quiet in the store. Everyone seems well informed on what is going on with my business too.

Choosing which dispensary to work with

I have a lot of knowledge of cannabis plants.

I started off growing myself in my basement.

I had a few grow boxes and a grow tent. I then progressed to having my own cannabis cultivation area right by my house. I then began working with dispensary owners and selling my products. It is tricky deciding who is the right person to work with. Typically you get to pick one store and that is it. Competition is rough and nobody wants to share a grower. I was debating for quite a while between two stores. One place was a tiny business and all local people. The store was cute and set up almost like a hipster gas station. I liked that the business owner was old school. The employees used paper time cards to punch in and were all friends of each other. The other dispensary was huge. It was very modern and everything was all automated. They had cannabis employee management software. All that means is that it is as ophicated version of cannabis employee badge tracking. The owner can tell who is where and at what a time. He knows when people punch in and out. It is known who is making the most sales too. I realized that all this dispensary software was a good sign. People were getting paid on time and tracked. They had dispensary HR software too. I ended up choosing them since I knew they would maintain a really good professional relationship.

Topical for leg cramps

I have the worst leg cramps.

They flare up from time to time.

Working out is tough, sleeping can be painful and sitting down can be bad. I tried all sorts of creams and stretches to fix my issue. Nothing worked though. Finally I decided to go to the cannabis dispensary near me for some assistance. They have all sorts of creams, lotions and patches. The topical world is quite vast. I found a lotion that works miracles on my cramps. It is like a more powerful icy hot. It smells like spearmint and lavender. It feels slightly cool and tingly when I apply it. I really like the sensation. It feels so good on my calves. I have found that if I don’t use lotion I really pay for it later. Everything feels tight and sore. I feel the cramp coming on. I need to be diligent about applying my topic. If I don’t, I pay for it so badly. I really love the smell and how easy it is to apply it. At first I thought all cannabis products were something that you either eat like a pot brownie, or smoke like a joint. A topical doesn’t even get you high. If you do a patch then it can get into the bloodstream. Most creams and lotions only give a slight CBD effect. That means I can still work, drive and work out after I apply the topical. It is the best for my situation. Anyone that deals with muscle pain or soreness, I highly advise to try a topical.

Vaping a cannabis oil for chronic pain

I am a gymnast and I tumble six days a week.

I used to compete in college.

Now I just tumble for my own enjoyment. The problem is that in college I sustained a lot of injuries. There was no time off to heal either. I just kept going on a sore knee, hip and back. Now that I am older and not competing, the pain is noticeable. It started to affect other areas of my life. I struggled sleeping at night, riding in the car and my workouts were sub par. I have done a lot of natural things to fix my issues. I get massages, cracked by a chiropractor and I regularly stretch. The pain isn’t going away though. My doctor recommended pain pills or to inject me with something. I didn’t like that at all. I heard from a friend of mine that a lot of people are medical marijuana patients due to chronic pain. I did a bit of hunting online and I found my solution. I am now a medical cannabis patient. I have a card and everything. What I do is vape cannabis oil when I am in bed. It soothes my mind and my body. My muscles don’t tense up overnight. I also make sure to smoke before long car rides and directly after working out. It works wonders for me. I feel so much looser and I don’t have the pain that I used to. I am hopeful that if I baby the muscles they will eventually heel.

I’m not any good at rolling cannabis joints

We both love raw flower products of marijuana opposed to cannabis oils and concentrates

I learned a lot from my older brother. He taught me how to ride a bicycle while our father was stationed overseas in the military. He also taught me how to talk to girls when I started middle school, as our father was out of our life completely at that point. In so many ways, my brother fulfilled the older male duties that our dad was supposed to fill, but didn’t. I have to hand it to my brother for being such a good sibling, as I can’t even imagine how I would have possessed the same strength and resilience to be in the roles that he has managed flawlessly over the years. But before anything else, my brother has been exactly that—my older sibling. He teaches me the things you’d expect an older brother to teach his younger brother. Although rolling cannabis joints might not be high on everyone’s list regarding traits and skills they’d learn from older siblings unless they were huge fans of cannabis like I am. I am terrible at rolling joints and typically vaporizer cannabis in a dry herb vaporizer. However, my brother is phenomenal at rolling marijuana joints and I always ask him to roll a few for me when he visits me at my apartments. Sometimes we visit the nearby cannabis dispensary together to get a new batch of some strong cannabis flower products. We both love raw flower products of marijuana opposed to cannabis oils and concentrates. You can find jars of cannabis flower buds at great prices sometimes, which makes getting high a cheap procedure for sure.

It’s annoying waiting in line at the cannabis dispensary on Friday evenings

I stopped eating out for dinner because of the insane waits at most of the local restaurants.

It got really bad after the pandemic started to slow down and people suddenly started eating out again en masse.

At this point it’s easier to schedule a reservation days in advance, but that doesn’t help when a friend reaches out at the last second to go out to dinner. And where are we supposed to go if we don’t want a long wait? It can be frustrating when you’re presented with a stubborn problem that resists all attempts at resolution. So instead of trying to dine in at a restaurant, I will invite the friend to my house and I order delivery or carry-out from wherever my friend wants to eat. If we want to hit the dispensary on a random evening, we might be faced with a similar problem. All of the people getting off work at 5pm will likely stop at the cannabis dispensary on their way home if they wish to go there at all. This creates a large line during the few remaining hours left of them being open in the evening. Friday nights are the worst for lines at the cannabis dispensary. Often the weed stores will restock hot products like top shelf jars of cannabis flower products that everyone wants to get their hands on. It’s not guaranteed that you’ll have access to the products you want from the cannabis dispensary if you choose home delivery instead of picking it up in person. It’s better that you go to the cannabis dispensary when you want something from a fresh product drop.

Cannabis tablets are whole new thrill for me

Not only do I love the taste of these cannabis edibles, the feeling was much better than smoking cannabis products

Recreational marijuana is something I’ve enjoyed since I first tried it back in college. I can remember the first time I tried cannabis, I didn’t honestly guess anything. I do not know if that was due to low THC triumphant or I was doing it wrong. But the next time I tried it, the results were much different. This time it was some homegrown sativa strains and I was shown the right way to smoke it. That might have been the problem the first time as well. I’m not so sure that I was entirely inhaling the cannabis, up to that point, I had never smoked anything including a cigarette. So the hour time I tried cannabis, I got the thing right and have enjoyed it since, but not too long after I was introduced to recreational marijuana, I tried our first pot brownie. But person it was just the worst thing ever. I didn’t realize until much later in life that the way those pot brownies were made was the reason they stunk. I assume our friends just threw the end of a tote of weed into some store bought brownie mix. That pot brownie tasted horrible and I do not assume anybody even got any of those effects from the marijuana. So fast forward a few decades and I finally made it to the cannabis edible section at our local cannabis spot. I’ve been quite reluctant to try cannabis edibles do to that disappointing pot brownie experience. Well the trip to the cannabis dispensary changed all that for me. Not only do I love the taste of these cannabis edibles, the feeling was much better than smoking cannabis products. I enjoy the body guess that I get from cannabis edibles much more than smoking marijuana. So cannabis edibles are enjoy a whole new world for myself and others now.

I love our marijuana tablets

There is no doubt that I enjoyed plenty of recreational marijuana when I was younger.

And I’m not ashamed to say that I enjoyed every hour of it. But more pressingly, this was also perhaps the best section of our life. I was studying a passion and learning about adult resposabilities while also having fun. The marijuana was honestly fantastic for myself and others to decompress and relax. I have a tendency to get a bit obsessive when it comes to our work. And in fact, I’m still that way. However recently, I wasn’t using sativa or indica to balance out our life. Actually, I wasn’t honestly balancing our life at all. I worked all the time unless I was sleeping. If there was any more time in there, it was devoted to our adolescents. I have no regrets for making our family a priority. My family is the best and I’m truly thankful to have them. Still, the routine I mentioned was a bit too much. Ironically, our partner suggested that I assume about going to the cannabis dispensary. This took myself and others back a bit. But after that the people I was with and I realized that the best time of our life also included meeting her. All of us talked about it and since it’s legal and the adolescents are nearly in college, it would be okay to have some cannabis products. But smoking was not something I was interested in these afternoons; Little did I know how far cannabis edibles have come in and all these years. I could not believe the vast array of cannabis edibles I could choose from at the local cannabis spot. Both our partner and I had the best time choosing just which marijuana edibles we’re going home with us. And I willalso say that they sure have done the trick.

Proper reasons to be in the marijuana business

For sure, I’m not financial genius or anything enjoy that.

I am practical and methodical when it comes to investing our money… Recent fluctuations in marijuana laws across the nation have caught our attention in more ways than one.

For sure, I’m truly happy that people out there are getting access to the medical marijuana that helps them manage and get relief from ailments. But I’m also happy that I can entirely shop for marijuana for sale without fear that I’m about to get busted. This has been a good experience for me. When it came to shopping for marijuana for sale back in the afternoon, you took what you could get. And the THC triumphant was often quite suspect. These afternoons, I can roll into the local cannabis spot and come out with cannabis edibles or some sativa products. There might be even be some hybrid strains for sale that I had not seen before. But it’s all just that simple these afternoons, and due to recent legislation, I realized that the east coast is now poised to welcome legal recreational marijuana in the coming years. And that fact has resulted in myself and others decreasing some of our investments. I’ve readjusted our portfolio to include a giant slice of the marijuana business. It’s a bit of a ground floor chance that I just cannot pass up. The marijuana company infrastructure is there and the time is absolutely right to get into the marijuana business. I would love it if the people I was with and I could all access a marijuana dispensary in every state. And if that happens it’s sure going to help make myself and others rich.
