March 2026

March 4, 2026 Wednesday - Today I had my last appointment with my rheumatologist. She got a new gig and is moving on. She’s been my doctor for 9 years and helped me get through a really rough patch when my meds stopped working back in 2017. When I think of my trip to Mexico in 2019, to Colombia in 2022, and even the wedding last month, I think of how she helped me get through those times.

March 3, 2026 Tuesday - This didn’t last too long, but we’re making progress. Butter is learning to take her turn when we do treats and snacks. She’s also beginning to understand the routine when we get our leashes on for our walks. And I think Pancake is starting to understand that Butter is just playing when she jumps at her. It’s not easy yet, but we’re getting there.

March 2, 2026 Monday - Today was another busy day. I started a new video project for work, and then one of my freelance clients sent me some work to get done this evening. This was my late afternoon snack: the Chocolate Covered Strawberry cookie. My friend is some kind of alchemist with cookie flavors. This is so good. Fortunately, I didn’t have to work too late.

March 1, 2026 Sunday - Today was another good day. I went up north to meet another friend for lunch. We had a good meal, but the dessert place we went to first was closed. We ended up trying an incredible gelato place. Can’t wait to go there again. Later, I went out to dinner with some of the family. I got this photo just down the street when I was leaving home this morning.
