Wait, What????

The teeny little man that thinks he can control and prevent what the majority of voters of various states have voted to allow is laughable.  Go ahead tiny fella....see what ignoring the voters gets you eventually. The act of getting stoned will continue regardless of the "blinders on your head" opinion.  It's happening...why not let the states regulate and tax? Colorado earned $116 million in tax revenue and licensing fees in 2017. Not too shabby.

I'm not a pot user. I'm not even entirely comfortable about the whole thing without even being able to explain why BUT I don't believe my discomfort should  be shouldered by my fellow stoning citizens.  I may not consider abortion for myself but using that as a reason for preventing all other women from doing so is small minded, highly intrusive and just plain wrong.

Wake up and smell the cannabis Jeffy boy.


PS  Sorry Margaret....I promise non-political for the rest of the month.

    I am a user of marijuana oil and it makes such a difference. Legalize it. Life easier for everyone.

    I’m with you. Not a user but let it be available and stop drug charges for pot possession and usage.

    I'm with you on this one too. This really gets me riled up....again.
    What is with these guys? little dick syndrome? I agree with you, If you don't believe in having guns in your home, don't get one. (me) If you don't believe in having an abortion, don't get one. If you don't wish to smoke pot, don't smoke pot. If you don't like alcohol, don't buy it. It's really very simple to me. I don't like these dick heads in the oval office and beyond and I vote! I see nothing wrong with states voting on how they wish to do anything. If you don't believe in a certain religion are we still going to have freedom of religion? It's getting too damn scary to live in the US. My friends in Europe are laughing at us. I get emails daily. It's sickens me what they see us as now. So disheartening. It is comparable to alcohol except it has medicinal purposes and uses. It is not like heroin as that little man said! My goodness these people have never read science books have they? climate change, pot is like heroin. Idiots.

    The GOPers were all about leaving gay marriage to the states. But now...pot is a Federal issue.

    Hmm, we might need to contact Mirriam-Webster to come up with a new definition for democracy. Orange duck-lips guy with the small hands'n'mind, and his cohorts don't seem to get it!

    Canada is legalizing marijuana in 6 months on July 1, 2018. The federal government will get 25% of the tax revenue from it and the provincial governments will get 75%, which is only fair because the provinces have all the costly responsibility for policing and regulating sales.

    I couldn't agree more. Just keep it up and we'll be in a police state.

A Journey To Home

My tender hearted girl decided she wanted to foster an old lady. Selkie is 14, is nearly deaf and nearly blind, has a hard time walking and uses her bark to get her needs met.  She got her home, took her for a bath and then basically loved this old girl for three weeks until the property manager decided that it wasn’t a good match (barking too much AND because she is a pit bull).  My girl knew it was probably temporary but she gave that dog a comfortable loving home, away from the chaos of the shelter, for a short time.  Ideally, she would have walked her home but that’s not how it worked this time.  Last night she stood and ugly cried on a strangers shoulder after giving her back.  I love that girl and her sweet heart.  I wish Selkie a new final home full of love.

Private Eye

We pass by the house frequently since it sits on a busy thoroughfare. We know to look every time we pass and guess what will we see. Will it be the two Dalmatians, sitting on the couch that backs up to the giant panel window, waiting for their human to come home? Or will it be their human, sitting slightly to the right of middle (allowing for a better view of the giant mounted tv across the room) of the said couch. They are never there at the same time. It’s one or the other. One sleepless night, when my body was willing but my brain was not, I did a little sleuthing. It’s amazing what you can find out about a complete stranger.   His name is Gary and, from what I can tell, he’s never been married. He has worked his way up in a air duct company. He’s now the senior VP but it’s a small company and he still goes out on jobs, judging from  the reviews on Yelp. I know he has two siblings and that their father passed away in 2018. His memorial was held in a Buddhist temple and Gary...

Go!

 Vai. E, se der medo, vai con medo mesmo. When one is raised in an angry family, it’s not enough to say I don’t want to be angry. You must learn how to do it differently. That’s no easy task. If judgment and self hatred became a way of life, a new way to live has to be taught. There are many ways to do it. Reading, writing, sharing, practicing all help the change. Counseling, psychoanalysis, religion, meditation, gratitude, have the ability to transform but I needed to see it in action, it needed to be more tangible, visual, accessible. I needed to understand the possibilities. There is a YouTube channel that I watch over and over again in order to absorb how to live more fully, more open and from the heart. One of the first episodes that I stumbled on is this…. The channel is Reflections of Life and through it we get to meet people who are doing life a little differently, often more soul based. People who are living life, healing wounds and finding what is truly important.  I...
