Smile Jamaica Ark-Ives: Jah-nuary 20, 2018 (Stream + Tracklist) – Vitamin D for Dubwize!


<Ma and Pa – Medical MJ weekly? report; 34 sec.>

Greetings,

Quick update on Bob & Rita* Nelson’s medical mj progress from Sun City West, Jah-rizona

  1. Dad’s neuropathy treatment allowed him to hit a bucket of golf balls. But the Carpal Tunnel pain isn’t any better
  2. Mom toying with the idea of vaping a 1/2 CBD, 1/2 THC oil rather than 4/1 CBD. She’s hit a mental block about becoming a “junkie” but she wants better sleep.

*Jeannette actually

Stay tuned!

Real quick.

Winter. January. Or Jah-nuary. Nuff respect to the skiers. We need the snowpack. But ugh.

How do we get our Vitamin D when the sun ain’t shining? If you have cabin fever get your Vitamin D for Dubwize. Enjoy last week’s showcase of Smile Jamaica

bless, Bobbylon
