Day 2 of vacation and 5’2 (aka mom) stops by to take me to dinner and deliver my $100.00 Christmas gift. Mom has been giving me $100.00 for Christmas since I was 10 years old. We often joke that even with inflation and years gone by, I still have not received an increase

Back in the office after spending several days taking care of my mama. She was recently in a serious car accident and sustained several injuries. She's doing a lot better now. Experiences like this always remind me of the importance of both family and time.

Last night, I attended Darren M Haynes’s farewell party. Today is his last day at WUSA 9. Darren has been a mentor to many of us. He’s been an example of excellence, consistency and a stellar journalist. We’re going to miss him.

A busy few weeks ends on a high. After working with our team to produce several great stories, I closed on my new condo today. Now we celebrate 🎉 and then we move!
@wusa9
Super excited! I head to South Africa this week to complete my reporting project as
@NABJ
’s 2019 Ethel Payne Fellow. I was scheduled to visit the country March of 2020, but the day I was scheduled to leave, the US went into lockdown. After a 2 year delay, we’re all systems go!
Today was a special day. After weeks of recovery from surgery, my mother was finally able to participate in her ordination service at Mayfield Memorial Missionary Baptist Church. She was ordained as a Digital Deacon. Congrats, Mom!
Officially turned 25 for the 6th time today. Although my knees and my back hurt (I guess it’s the age kicking in), I feel amazing!

Jimmy shared this photo with his son Rashawn Williams. The 31-year-old was evaluated at the hospital after being found at the Glenmont Metro station without food and water. I can’t tell you how happy I am for this family!

Back on the desk with the work family! Thankfully, mom continues to get better. She was ready for me to go. Lol. She was tired of “Dr. Miller” and his demands.
