Gee Boaz, 2 years to life--really is bad! Wouldn't beat myself up for not exercising while reducing the dose of medication! I admire that! Oddly, now that the mmj is lower in price, etc. I am either getting better or just don't think about it much (cause I spend too much time here, which is a retreat from pain for me. Not thinking about it (pain)don't feel it so much-but am much better these days). Except for days like the past two. When the weather changes from warm to cold-I'z get to hurting a bit and only think of the herb. And you find me here at 3 A.M. Just too cold to go outside for me.

I really don't like to toke in the A.M, which is why I love the brownie. After that, depends on how I feel. Or the weather. Since, I go outside to toke. I know all the neighbors can smell it, cause I can smell theirs! I make some pretty decent edibles! Would rather bake (in the oven or cook on stove) than grow. Always something!

PGS, that coffee is a good anti-oxidant, you may want to try it instead, not so much caffeine in it as the energy drinks! I am not one for an energy drink, in fact, haven't even tried one! Unless you consider Poweraid or Gator... one. I do not. I simply think of them as 'electrolyte' replacement when not feeling well or working outside in the elements. Makes a big difference in how I feel. As I age, I certainly do not tolerate severe temp. of any kind or working outside in it! If I forget the drink, I don't feel very well after a day of working in the garden. Usually powerade in winter and gator in summer (later has more sodium and feel it is needed more in severe heat). Just replacing body's deficency.

It was suppose to rain, "a little bit" 1/2 inch here today. Past 2 hours-I'd say 2" at least. Good day for staying in and making home-made potato soup! Wanted to put some mmj in it, but would ruin the taste for others that would eat it! So, using the patio for a while! As I bake and cook, I just wonder how it would be so much better with mj in it. Thinking of cooking up some mmj in the butter to baste the big bird Thursday. But, only about 4 of us could partake and then-the little one, can't give it to her! Thinking on warming up the butter in a small crock pot with the pot for about 12 or so hours prior to using. Perhaps, I ought to cut the bird in half or quarter out a section for the 4 medical users?

I am an indoor exerciser. I prefer good cardiovascular. A nice stationary bike in front of the T.V. Running, here in the smoke, seems counter-productive to me! I know many will think, And you Toke? Yep, cause I have read the medical facts and it ain't like tobacco (which I am allergic to anyway). I try to exercise at least 5-6 hours prior to bedtime and take a long walk in the evening! I am no morning person and never have been! dunno why, just learnz to live with it. I can be influenced, though! Especially when it comes to fishing, I am the first one up! I do have my priorities!:rasta: pr
