Studies have shown individuals with broken bones that have taken CBD experience faster stitching and mending of a fracture as compared to individuals not taking CBD. Bone growth is thought to be one of the potential benefits of this supplement . Ongoing research is being conducted to determine if CBD can contribute to overall improved bone health, which may lead to quicker healing of broken bones and a reduction in the symptomatic side effects associated with Osteoporosis.
I myself experienced this phenomena when I broke my arm and took extra CBD in all forms in the first 8 weeks of the recovery healing and both my Dr and my Physical therapist noticed that I was ahead of the healing process approximately 2 weeks compared to someone with the same injury.

On Saturday, April 5 from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m., the Sawyer Free Library, in collaboration with the Gloucester Writers Center, is hosting the final session of Nature’s Voices, a three-part writing workshop designed to help participants step away from daily demands and reconnect with the natural world.

Led by photographer and essayist Mark Thayer, Immersion, Observation, Reflection: Communicating Sense of Place through Essay will guide participants in crafting essays that capture the beauty, complexity, and personal resonance of the environment around them.
Participants will meet at the Gloucester Writers Center located at 126 East Main Street. The session begins with a 30-minute guided outdoor walk, where participants will engage in mindful observation, gathering impressions and inspiration from nature. The group will then return indoors for a 90-minute writing session, with prompts from Mark designed to spark creativity and deepen one’s sense of place. Whether you’re an experienced writer or just beginning, this workshop offers a fresh perspective and invigorating creative exercises.
This free session is open to adults (18+), rain or shine. Please dress for the weather and bring rain gear if necessary. Pens, notebooks, and an open mind are encouraged!
Registration is required at sawyerfreelibrary.org. Limited space available. For questions, contact Meg O’Neill at 978-325-5562 or moneill@sawyerfreelibrary.org.

At approximately 8:23 p.m. Friday, March 14, first responders received a call about a fire at Market Basket, 101 Gloucester Crossing Road. Upon arrival, firefighters discovered two separate fires: one in the stockroom, another inside the cardboard compactor. The fires were knocked down by 9 p.m.
The store is now open after passing multiple Health Department and Building Department inspections. It was thoroughly cleaned and disinfected overnight, and any impacted food and packaging has been discarded.
“I am grateful to our capable Fire Department and mutual aid partners for their efficient work last night to bring down this fire. Ensuring our residents have access to safe and quality food remains a top priority, especially given the recent news in our community. I am relieved that the store has quickly met the Health Department’s requirements and is back open,” said Mayor Greg Verga. “I have full confidence in our public safety officials, and I’m grateful that no one was hurt during the incident.”
An investigation into the fire continues, with assistance provided by Gloucester Police and the Massachusetts State Police Fire and Explosion Investigation Unit attached to the State Fire Marshal’s Office
There are so many favorite places to go for a meal that it’s not uncommon for us to find ourselves saying “Let’s go to (favorite place), we haven’t been there in a long time”. Destinos is a great example. We stopped by for lunch. You can’t really beat the dine-in option of having the daily soup/salad available as part of your meal. I like the Buffalo chicken dinner and Jim ordered a tuna sub. I brought some of the tenders home with me for another meal. They are efficient and prompt with their service which the many customers seem to appreciate. I’m glad we went back…..now on to the next “I forgot about that place!”
