Last week, I called Grandma to tell her they were considering legalizing recreational marijuana… All I heard hear say was that it was about time.
She had been purchasing medical marijuana for the past 4 years, and every year she needs to call the dentist & pay him to approve her for the medical marijuana card.
She then pays the state to get the medical marijuana ID card sent to her. She told myself and others it would be much cheaper if she could purchase recreational marijuana than the medical marijuana. Although recreational marijuana gets charged with higher taxes, you don’t need to pay out three to 4 hundred dollars to get it. She said she doesn’t pay that much in 6 weeks for her medical marijuana. She said she could get recreational marijuana & use it for her ailments just the same as she could get the medical marijuana. I wasn’t sure I should talk to Grandma about how much more she would pay in taxes, because I was sure she would tell myself and others I was wrong. She told myself and others she would keep buying the medical marijuana until recreational marijuana was legal, so I didn’t need to worry about her not using it. She was hoping it wouldn’t take long for the recreational marijuana to go through, but her medical marijuana card was going to expire in three weeks. I walked out shaking our head. I knew I should go house & tell our mom, however she would shake her head just appreciate Grandma does. It’s their way of telling myself and others I worry too much, separate from saying the words.
