No Longer Watching the Clock: One writer lets motherhood find her

About last night. @imaniniarobinson Your pilot episode of @3blindmice_television has me hyped for more! The screening & talk back were loads of fun & also showed how strong of a village you have🥰 You are out here doing necessary work dahling💜

Libra season is over, but my growing season continues. This month I have been pushed into another kind of evolution, one I did not want. While grappling w/ the emotions brought on by a sudden & profound loss folks surrounded me. The love, comfort, & care y’all have shown has buoyed me.

Eric, I am still grappling w/ the fact that you are no longer on this earthly plane. That your life was snatched so cruelly.

From “Acolytes” by Nikki Giovanni ☔️ 💜

This is me in @therj207 student film, Thin Line circa 95 (I think). I played the main character’s little sister, Dot.

Yesterday my sister & I dropped of her daughter/my God-daughter at college. I’m so honored to have been a part of this transition in her life. I’m looking forward to hearing stories, visiting & having her show me her favorite spots, & just getting to watch her evolve. Shout-out to my sister who has had a village, but has also shouldered quite a bit on her own. I’m proud of you @aqua2529 ✌🏾 & 💜

Lost Pops in his earthly form on this day in 2008. He died in the wee morning hours at John’s Hopkins Hospital by himself. That always f’ed w/ me. Back then I lived close to the hospital so was able to meet my Mom & brother there before they took him away. I remember going to a conference room with the doctor & the chaplin. The doctor looked like HE needed consoling. He told us, “He fought really hard, referring to my Dad. That f’ed w/ me too.
