THIS IS A LADIES ONLY GROUP - I know (I know) some guys like chick flicks, but it's my belief that every now and then we all need to see a good chick flick with lady friends. This group is about that. We'll get together to see a movie, have dinner, lunch or drinks, or maybe even get a manicure or go to a play. A little self-indulgence never hurt anyone. Suggestions are always appreciated, and I am always looking for hosts. I want this group to be a time to relax, have fun, and meet new friends. …

Cannabis, with meditation, has helped tremendously with the blackouts I was experiencing frequently where I haven’t had a blackout in months now. My (retired) doctor an …
