My mother told me that because she grew up on the farm she had to grow her own crops.
I could kneel as well as listen to my mother talk for numerous hours on end.
Her upbringing is absolutely fascinating to me, since it is such a departure from my own life experiences. I grew up a suburban kid, with your normal suburban kid issues. When she was my age she was taking care of livestock, putting up fences, as well as driving a truck, and anything the family wanted or needed. They had to do it on their own, from heat to food to shelter. So when my mother, as a teenager, wanted to smoke marijuana, she had to grow the marijuana himself. These days we literally have a cannabis dispensary at the end of the street, as well as they are building another one across town, however growing our own marijuana plants typically seemed to me that it was more work than necessary. To me, marijuana had typically been legitimately easy to obtain. For my mother it was another time and place, an odd way of life, as well as she grew her own marijuana crops for numerous years. She said that by the time she was graduating high school she had a small field of hemp as well as marijuana, as well as she was able to pay for her community college classes with the profits. It’s funny, she still laughs at me as well as says “youngsters nowadays don’t know how to work for their marijuana, you just go to the store.” Let’s just hope they never make marijuana illegal again in the future!
