stop driving my car to work

I've always had a guilty conscience about the fact that I drive to work. I've always had the excuse of picking my daughter up from daycare as my crutch for why I don't take the bus that stops a couple blocks from my house and drops me off a 10 minute walk from work TO WORK. But my daycare situation has changed and I don't have to rush to pick the kids up from daycare so I CAN take transit.

Conscious Consumerism
hempseed oil cream

There's nothing in the ingredients that I can't pronounce and that's usually enough for me to be convinced that a cream is okay to purchase. This body product uses hempseed oil as one of the main ingredients, and they make a point of telling us that it contains "0% THC". I guess some people might still be worried that they would get a buzz from it? I think it points to the confusion around the two different kinds of plants, making it necessary to provide information that infers a distinction between hemp and it's kissing cousin marijuana.
