Another Thing
Yesterday morning my husband called me to let me know he had been involved in a car accident on his way home from work. He and the other person involved were both okay, but his truck’s front end is going to need some work. He was able to pull the fender away far enough from the tire to drive it home. It is just another thing we’ll have to deal with in our already stressful life. That means he’ll be borrowing my truck for work until his truck is fixed. It’s not like I have any driving to do. I can wait to run my errands once he gets home, it will just be hotter outside when I run them. I could have sworn we have rental car coverage but my husband seems to think we don’t. Either way, my truck just sits in the driveway most days so with it being summer I’m not taking my granddaughter to school so I see no reason why he needs a rental car. Most days he’s home before noon so it won’t be too bad until his truck is fixed. Once he made it home yesterday he relaxed for a few minutes and we headed over to my niece’s house so my husband and daughter could do more work on the house. It is really starting to take shape. I managed to get the closet cleaned out, only taking the clothes I know I’ll wear, all the rest is going to be donated. I feel better knowing that it is done and there were four large kitchen trash bags full of clothes that were packed in that closet along with the box for me. Those clothes were packed tight in that closet, half still had the price tags still on them. Christmas, Halloween, there were all kinds of different holiday t-shirts, pants and pajamas. My sister loved to shop, that is something we always knew, I guess I just didn’t realize how much she actually shopped. By the time we got home yesterday evening it was close to 5:30 pm so I took 100 mg of my Brix THC gummies and threw a frozen pizza in the oven for dinner. I was high, relaxed and ache free, settling in to watch some mindless television for the evening by 7. My sciatic started to bother me late in the afternoon, so I’m still thinking those new stretches I’ve added are helping. It didn’t start bothering me early in the afternoon, it was later in the day so to me that was a win. I took another 100 mg of THC gummy around 8 pm, stretched and watched TV in bed until I got tired. Today we are hanging out at home, we’ve already put the 9# pork roast on the smoker to get that going for tomorrow, we’ll keep an eye on that for the next several hours. I’m feeling worn out today, not sure why, just blah and no energy. My husband thinks it is because I sit outside in this heat and that is what makes me feel whooped. He’s probably right, but the heat feels so good on my bones I can sit outside in the shade and feel the light breeze to stay cool. I sat outside in 105 temperatures for close to two hours yesterday, everyone at the house thought I was nuts and kept checking on me. I reminded them that if I get too warm I can just get in the pool or come in the house. plus I stay hydrated. Most of the time I’m freezing in the house by the afternoon and have on a flannel to stay warm. My body does much better in the heat than it ever does in the colder weather. By next week we are going to heat up into the 110+ temps so summer is definitely in full swing in Phoenix. I don’t mind the higher temps, it is when you throw in humidity with those higher temps I start complaining. We’ll see how my body does with my arthritis and the humidity this summer. Last year I made it through just fine, I think I ended up increasing my Rick Simpson Oil from ½ gram a day to ¾ gram a day to help ease the achiness during the day, then dropped back down to ½ gram in the fall. When you are managing your chronic pain with marijuana it is easy to switch between products and dosages to meet your pain level needs when necessary. It really is that easy, all you have to do is go to your nearest dispensary and start asking questions, you might be surprised by what you learn! I’m glad I did! All because I chose a plant over a pill. Thank you marijuana!

Conservatives are dying at higher rates than liberals due to their mistrust in medicine. The conservatives won't believe it though, because these findings come from a peer-reviewed study published in a world leading science journal

The health divide emerged over the last decade and has widened since 2020, according to research that links ideology to outcomes from heart disease, cancer, stroke, and other internal causes.
Since talking to one specific person lately about their fat-free (not reduced but entirely fat-free diet) I'm now more consciously looking at the label and ingredients of everything and each recipe.
You can't even eat mashed potatoes or lentil soup then. So what even can you eat?
Raw vegetables, fruits, berries, ... alone?
