I’m exhausted. Feeling drained. Mental meltdown...  

I think about cannabis and my head hurts. LOL - *Only with regards to the absolute insanity that surrounds it all on the GRAND SCALE.  
Don’t sweat the small stuff. 
Plant a seed and go to jail.     LOL   How small can you get?

You cannot help but discover all sorts of things when you start to research Cannabis. 
A very interesting history based on lies. Of course, it involves money and corporations keeping it under control. Now that it has been exposed, what is the problem?
We are witnessing daily how it is helping save the lives of children around the world, 
trust me - I am paying very close attention, as should you.  It is helping ease suffering of millions around the world. Still we are faced with lies and excuses. 

To get material, I find I am faced daily with facts about death from drugs. 
NEVER cannabis!  Prescribed medications, use of them recreationally & PROPERLY, chemical cocktails are killing our elderly- and not gracefully!!!  Illegal pills, METH, Alcohol <we all know that. Tobacco, sugar, junk food.. it is just insane the things that are worse for you than cannabis.  How have we been so ‘duped’ for so long?

I think to myself lately, I want to pull a Bill Watterson so bad you have no idea. ;)
I’m done.. but I can’t.  
I see my son, I see him having a life because of a plant. I see him and I know when he is in pain, I know that for most of the time he can control it with a plant. That and rest, appear to be the simple recipe for Storm. He is tired of pain. 

I know so many that need it as their medicine, need it to help them move ON! 
MOVE PAST and KEEP going. I am one of them. 
It appears I have a movement disorder that just won’t quit. I have constant twitching, electrical zapping in my brain 24/7 with very short breaks in between & trigeminal neuralgia  thrown in about 7 times  day. 

Before I sat to ink this drawing I smoked a joint to calm it down,  it does not calm the movement as much as it calms my mind and allows me to think clearly. Ironically.  Amen.  

I have a meeting regarding some work with someone, and I think ‘I must have a bonk hit right before’. This is not to get high.  This is my life and I thank God for it - for every second that I remain here with my son and husband and dogs and you.

I do get great e mail from strangers all around the world from time to time, just when I feel I need it ;) We all need to be appreciated. Thank you.

But, I have to draw about more,  it is about so much more. 
Cannabis is just a distraction. One big PRANK, by big brother.

The Lies they tell, the money & time wasted on a failing DRUG war that will never be under control, the lives we don’t save.  Trafficking drugs or trafficking people... where the f*ck have our priorities gone and why are we letting this happen?  

SPEAK UP! Educate someone. Share something! Or don’t. 
Move out of my way. My head hurts and I’m losing my patience... until tomorrow.

A new day to get it right!
Draw! Have some fun! Play in the garden... grow.  
Don’t sweat the small stuff!

Before I am anything I am a mom. AND very proud of it. 
Storm was my gift the second my Dr. told me on my birthday I was pregnant.
I never forget He is the best gift I have ever been blessed with. 
The seed of Love  - For most of us it is a seed planted in love. 
No matter HOW you feel 5, 15, and 20 years later (and more!)  ;)

So A MOM first is what I am and I say to Storm all the time:  
PLEASE DONT DRINK and drive!!! We all say this to our young adults.
       We should be. We all need the reminder and Tis the season.
So many parents lose their children to alcohol and driving and let’s face it 

Tis The SEASON! CHEERS!!!  HO HO HOpe I don’t run into R.I.D.E.
                      ^ How many of us have said it and still do. ^

Don’t drive if you are taking OXY and you feel high.
Don’t drive if you are taking cold medicine! That stuff use to knock me on my ASS!
Don’t drive if you are sick and can’t focus and feel like shit!
Don’t drive IF you feel impaired in any way! 

I DONT Drive. - Which really sucks because Norm promised me a smart car for my 50th. But the last time I had the truck out I had an attack in a drive-through and felt really uncomfortable!! It is NOT worth it. Not just for me but for others. 

PLEASE do not drive if ‘impaired’.  *IMPAIRED = ON CELLPHONE!! 

ALL of these reasons kill more daily than a driver strictly on cannabis.
I have yet to read of a case. 
Cannabis for many - especially those in chronic pain helps them to Function & Focus- as does many medication for many people. I also know of a few that use it for anxiety of city driving! 

I believe a driver should be judged by his actions rather than his medicine. 
IT IS OUR OWN CHOICE to get behind a wheel. 
With our Canadian winters we have enough difficulty driving *like the 20 car pile up just this past week on the QEW. So please.. not even Cannabis. IF. 

xox LOVE a MOM.

I drew this toon a few weeks ago but decided it was too sensitive to post. Thinking yesterday - it is too sensitive NOT to post. Like it or NOT it is the truth. I use to be confused. I am no longer confused only disgusted.  Not confused because I have been educating myself on the topic of Cannabis and its legal/illegal battle.
I see Cannabis for what it is (rather how the media presents it) - they show only the negative - stoners, rednecks and ignorant - like the young mom who is seen placing her infants head on a BONG.  That will be spread like wild fire- VERY WRONG - clearly she is a product of her raising and knows no better - Pay attention parents!  Cannabis is a HUGE distraction I believe. All this over a plant that has never killed anyone - Something smells skunky around here...

People need to know and realize the simple insanity of it all.
Yes we do have guns in Canada - but not legal like our friends in the U.S. 
I had company this past year who informed me - it is not uncommon for people in the theatre, mall, grocery store  all to have guns in the U.S.A.  I understand the right to protect yourself and your home. It is legal to purchase a gun and all the fixins that go with it - but does no one question ever??  There are far too many gun related deaths in the U.S.A - the worst - Children that come across a parents gun.  Who is to blame?  The television? Society?  As for drinking , how many people go to a bar after work for a few and then get behind the wheel and drive- You don't need me to tell you - TOO F*&^%$# MANY!  Sadly many walk away with a slap on the hand.  Both legal. 
YET - Here I am and a few other parents and seriously ill people who can't GROW a PLANT to ease their own child's pain. 
IT MAKES NO SENSE what so ever! It is a crime and a slap in the face compared to the other serious, deadly issues that face us all daily. 
We are Victims in the war/distraction on drugs.  Call it what it is.
