OK, sorry for the short absence but dealing with some other issues.
Believe it or not, my house is STILL not even close to being finished. The kitchen is mostly done and functional, but still needs some work on the walls, paint, backsplash, etc. The other rooms haven't been touched since they stripped them down to concrete.
Part of this is just delays and part is that I'm still fighting with my insurance company and looks like I'll be hiring a lawyer to pursue the claim. They're quick to take your premiums and quick to cancel you if you don't pay, but when it comes time for them to pay...well...not so quick!
As a result, I have not been able to restart my grow and, to be honest, it's driving me pretty crazy. They talk about the growing, and not the smoking, being addictive and I've been trying to quit "cold turkey" and having signs of severe withdrawals!
Had some other things going on with my business and some recent visitors (in spite of the house conditions!) that have kept me busy but have to say, overall, life is pretty f'n great and I'm happy to be part of it!
My dad has been doing great on the RSO caps. The 20:1 caps were too strong for him and tended to put him to sleep, although they stopped his Parkinsons tremors. The next batch I made was a 30:1 and his hands were still steady but he still gets a little "loopy" even from a single pill, which is odd to me since he does now also vape pretty regularly so I thought he could handle the 20:1's.
Last week, I made him a batch of 40:1 caps. I haven't been able to get them to him yet, but if they still work to control his Parkinsons tremors, I'm pretty sure he'll be able to handle them much better, not to mention the much greater yield on the meds per unit of RSO.
Also, I think I had mentioned in a previous post that I had also give some RSO to a neighbor for his dog. He's got a beautiful Doberman that has cancer. He's already had to have a front leg removed and they just found out the cancer had spread to the dog's lungs. The couple has spent something like $15,000 on treatments for this dog and would happily spend more money if they thought anything would help but really had started to lose hope.
I just received a beautiful text message from the wife a few days ago. I'm going to edit the names (including the dog's!) for confidentiality, but here's the actual string of messages:
- Hey KRIP I just wanted to say thank you for everything you have done for Spot. I cannot tell you how much it has helped.
- No worries....Does it appear to be helping? we can discuss details when I see you, and anxious to hear them!
- Yes very much. And yes we will talk! I just wanted to thank you. Joe was inconsolable, he is so attached to Him and Spot was pretty bad last month / before. Now I honestly have hope that he is getting better. It's slow progress but it's good. Thank u again for Spot and for Joe's sake.
- I'm sooooooooooo glad to hear!!! No thanks are needed! I'm glad I can help
- Meeeeee too! Oh yes totally warranted. It's night and day compared to how he was.
- that's AWESOME Jill!
- If you ever need anything....you know to just ask.
- Thank you!
- Yep when I see you we will chat.
Obviously, I was overjoyed to hear that news.
I should be online more frequently over the next few weeks and I'll get caught up on as many journals as I can.
Best wishes to all for a Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy & prosperous 2017!

I only wish!!!
