Ever since I was a little girl, I would spend the first Friday of each month with my Nina.
She used to take me swimming, bowling, out to eat or to the zoo but now that I am an adult, she periodically loves to do more adult centered activities.
She’s particularly not all into Bingo or the arts, she prefers more “energetic” activities like the casino to gamble or football practice to watch the “men in tights”! Nina is not the traditional, stay apartment and bake cookies Grandma. So, I particularly shouldn’t have been surprised last week when she decided that we were going to drive in the neighborhood and check out this pressing marijuana dispensary. I couldn’t guess my eyeah! It almost reminded me of an lavish Vegas motel lobby. The marijuana dispensary was cheerily lit and had a fun atmosphere. It gave a wide variety of strains, tinctures, edibles, topicals and things I didn’t recognize but was too anxious to ask. It gave a tea bar and a lounge part with free Wi-Fi. My little outdated grey haired Grandma acted like she was a regular customer of marijuana dispensaries, casually looking at this and that as I nervously looked on. She even bought a few items. I was stunned! Never in my life did I see my Grandma in a marijuana dispensary buying marijuana products. Never in my life did I see myself in a marijuana dispensary buying marijuana products, but I just had to try the gummies. My time with Nina is almost always an adventure, and going to see the marijuana dispensary was at the top of my list of fun things I like to do with Nina.
