I have been looking into cannabis edibles. I really don’t like smoking my marijuana. I hate that with flowers you need a grinder, an ashtray, rolling papers and a lighter. I hate remembering to carry all of that stuff anytime I want to smoke. I am not the best at making a joint either. I tend to lose half of my product. Vaping cannabis oil isn’t much better. Sure I don’t have the waste or the prep, but the ol just isn’t that satisfying. I don’t really like the taste or the vaping experience. I also don’t like carrying a vape around and being one of those people. That is why I am looking into edibles. I don’t take cannabis in order to get high. Unfortunately a lot of edibles are geared towards that. I don’t want a traditional pot brownie, space cake or THC infused gummy. I want a CBD infused edible to help me with anxiety. There are thankfully some options out there in the CBD world. There are edibles like cooking oils and cannabutters that have CBD in there. There are even hard candies, drinks and mouth sprays that are CBD oriented. I am hopeful that relying on an edible is a lot better than my experience with smoking. I like that with an edible you can grab and go. Also, an edible gets into your system that much quicker. It is a faster, more intense experience since the CBD gets into your bloodstream automatically. Ingesting marijuana is just a more efficient way than smoking it.
Grape farmer using a CBD topical
I am a grape farmer and it is a very physical job.
I am constantly moving around and putting my body into odd positions.
Getting in and out of my tractors, pickers and hedgers really gets to be harsh on my hips, back and knees. I also am trimming grapes by hand and picking up posts. So my hands get a lot of abuse too. For a long time it was fine. I was a younger man and I could bounce back. As I have gotten older the physicality of the job has been brutal. I invested in a hot tub, regular massages and I stretch everyday. I still was experiencing chronic pain. I then found that the cannabis dispensary near me offers CBD topicals. At first I was a little hesitant to try a cannabis product. The last thing I wanted to do was get high. With a CBD product, you aren’t getting any THC that causes that high sensation. The CBD topical is just an oil that I put on my hand too. It isn’t something I need to smoke or put a lot of effort into. It honestly is like using a more powerful icy hot. The CBD topical makes my skin feel slightly tingly and it smells nice. I really notice a difference on my joints when I use it. My hands don’t hurt like they used to. My hips, back and neck all feel a lot looser. I make sure to put the oil directly on my skin early in the morning before work and then I put one more dose on before bed. It helps to keep things feeling good.
Traveling to a recreational weed state
COVID has totally ruined traveling for me.
They have made it so difficult to go anywhere now.
You need to prove you are vaccinated and a lot of services are canceled. There are hiking trails no longer open, hotel services that are gone and restrictions in restaurants. It is slowly getting better, but not quick enough. I am not willing to travel to a forgein country because of it. My husband and I had to elope and plan a honeymoon stateside. We ended up choosing a state on the west coast. We wanted sand, water and good hiking. I also wanted yummy places to eat at and plenty of activities. My husband and I walked along the pier, shopped and looked at the sights. We then realized that our location is a recreational weed state. We decided to go into our first ever re -recreational weed shop. It was a really cool experience. /the budtenders were more than just part time workers. They recommended products, offered advice and knew their cannabis. My husband and I were newbies and needed some help. I walked in there with no idea what I wanted. I then left knowing I liked edibles, and wanted a sativa with a high THC amount. My husband went for a cannabis oil he vapes. It was an indica with a high CBD amount. That stop to the dispensary was the best part of the whole trip. We got so much good stuff and got to experience things we wouldn’t normally. It turned out to be a great trip.
Cannabis beverages help my anxiety
When my anxiety got to be pretty bad I turned to cannabis.
- I knew that the right blend of THC and CBD would relax me.
I needed to be more productive at work rather than panicking. I also wanted to be considered for an upper management position. I needed to prove I could keep my cool. Thankfully the state allows for both recreational and medical marijuana. I didn’t need to get a cannabis card in order to get the help I needed. That was helpful since I didn’t want the typical strains that medical weed patients get. I didn’t want to smoke cannabis since I am in a professional setting. I know cannabis is legal but I didn’t really want to step outside and take a smoke break. I also didn’t want to carry a vape around with me. So I went into my cannabis dispensary, consulted a budtender and left with the perfect product. I choose to do a cannabis beverage. There are all sorts of flavors to choose from. There is cherry, grape, watermelon, lime, kiwi and strawberry. I get a whole pack of all of them. I then keep the cannabis beverages in a mini fridge under my desk. Everyone just thinks I like to drink soda while I work. For me it is a discreet way to treat my anxiety. I begin my day with a drink and then drink another one at lunch. By the time the effects are wearing off, it is time to go home. The taste is great and the amount of THC is quite minimal. I am still me but a more productive, calmer version of myself.

I don’t take cannabis in order to get high, then unluckyly a lot of edibles are geared towards that. I don’t want a traditional pot brownie, space cake or THC infused gummy.
