it's Catherine the Canada store and it's just over a year old and it's growing pretty good pretty good but just kind of like telling people my age from 56 it's an option because I spent many years on Vicodin it's like you're drinking and driving it saved my life because the the Vicodin and the muscle relaxer community in a car accident it was literally messing myself up so that I had to go on medicine for my stomach it was just so much but now I'm living the life of my anxieties under control and thanks to CBDs well you know my diet because my daughter she went so like Megan because she was having so much trouble yeah I like all that stuff not sure occasions okay that's Thanksgiving and they're having a leg of lamination she's eating some kind of I I eat everything I eat pretty much everything but I also use RSL oil every day which is Rick Simpson Oil which really helped my gut because I have IBS so that it helps with that as well uh no problem with that yeah yeah but so far that really helped in the Rick sips and oil just need very little bit on a cracker eat that the gut problems went away saving so much money on all the different medications that I was on and seeing the different doctors yeah yeah so now I'm able to get out and do stuff like this and share my story with other people my age you know nice meeting you before you go I got to show you something I'm looking at your necklace which is wonderful I love the wraps but I want to show you now this is a professional drill uh-huh oh I oh those are Monterey pine cones oh that is cool but they're wrapped
