In the paper

I was lucky enough to end up in the newspaper again today. Apparently someone thinks I’m doing well enough to answer questions for “The Other Side” in the Saturday Magazine from The Mercury.

    So exciting. I read it and squeed for you! I have to admit there was also some “ooh everyone, look, I know someone in the paper”. I’m sure there’s a word for it. But until I can think of it I was two more for you! Congratulation, you!

    Go you!!! Great snapshot of you and your life, Veronica.
    You’d think, with my hubby being the Editor, I could get in my own newspaper. But alas, no! LOL! 😉

      It helped that I was able to write the answers in an email, rather than a proper interview I think. I definitely think better when I’m typing!

      And yes, I would imagine so, but I guess he can’t look biased? Still, total shame! Tell him he needs to put you in!

    YAY I know someone famous now! 🙂 lol

    Hey… not blogging so much on my blog. Just so tired of having my kids stalked there through my oldest son’s ex-friend. Cops are worse than useless, so haven’t called them. Anyway. Point being, would you like to see my other blog? If you want, just about Emperor mostly. Not sure if I am keeping other blog, so hard to decide. So hard to be followed and then have all your news spread, I dunno.

    I know you have explored that how much to tell issue in detail before and I am still struggling in light of the stalking about how much to say. Google my first and last name with the words “bad homeschool” and… scan around there. You will see how bad things are. Plus his dad threatened me that I should rather have been drowned with a millstone etc. than be mean to his son on my fb. So… bleh. Ok, no hijacking. BUT as you get more famous how much to post, and have you ever had a stalker too? From your real life? Maybe I am the only one sometimes I think… hm.
