    Legal here in Mo. and I hit my one-hitter occasionally while I'm back in my shop doing some scrapping . I'm retiring and I have been scrapping as a hobby for close to 50 years.

    I have zero interest in smoking weed. However, I have at least 3 sleep disorders and I’m living a nightmare on that aspect. I’ve tried absolutely everything. Nothing helps. This last time we were in Colorado I decided to get some gummies made just for sleeping. It’s a got dang miracle. It sucks that they are so expensive and can’t deliver to Indiana. Going there this weekend so I’m grabbing at least 3 bottles. I 10/10 highly recommend if someone has sleep issues to go that route. Usually when I take, say an otc sleep pill, it’ll work one night and not work again for months. This was 20straight days of the best sleep I’ve had in 23 years(when my problems started)..
    Determine never to be idle. No person will have occasion to complain of the want of time who never loses any. It is wonderful how much may be done if we are always doing.

    Good deal. I never tried the gummies and only smoke a hit or 2 at a time.

    It's all good man. Just different strokes for different folks.

    I've got my regular full time day job.The scrapping is just a part time gig to keep my hands busy when i have the time and energy. Staying active keeps you young. I figured i would wait till i was 70 and then maybe think about retiring. Till then ... i've gotta keep my edge cause i still have all the usual responsibilities. Wife, family, community, pay taxes .... all that good stuff.

    Of course ... you know what they say: Man plans / God laughs.

    (I might not even make it to 70.)

    I just retired and I'm 67. I never smoked anything before or during work . I now have more time for my scrapping hobby.

    I'm 76 and scrapping fulltime, farming fulltime and playing country music in a dance band parttime and enjoying it all. I've never smoked ANYTHING but would consider a little weed for pain relief. After a 14 hr. day, I sleep pretty well the way it is.
