Today Is MY Day Bro'!

One of my favourite (comedy) movies is TWINS.

Starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito.

Pic taken from HERE

There is one scene in the movie, where the guys are getting ready for their dates.

Arnold has never been on a date before, and Danny is making him nervous, by singing to him 'Tonight is YOUR night Bro. Tonight is YOUR night Bro ... Tonight is YOUR night Bro.'

That particular snippet of song has rolled around in my brain for over 20 years!

At the strangest moments, it will pop into my head.

Other times, as I'm preparing to head out for a night of fun, there he is - Danny Devito singing in my head.

And, today?

He's singing again, because ...


Today is MY day Bro'!


Why?

Because today, I'm the Featured Blogger over at The Secret Is In The Sauce, or SITS!

WooHoo! Yay me!


So, WELCOME!

Welcome all you SITStas, and everyone else who has dropped by the Korner today.

For you non-bloggers, SITS is a blog which offers support to bloggers through networking and by encouraging comments.

Lots and lots of comments!

Sure, we all like hearing friends, family and co-workers say they read and enjoy our 'stuff'. But it's also nice to get those comments from people we don't know, too.

SITS dedicates a day to a specific blogger, and all other bloggers within the social media group head on over to their site, check them out, and say Hi.

It's a nice concept.

Makes the blogger feel like Queen for a Day lol.

Not to mention providing wonderful exposure for the blogger, and opening the doors to potential friendships.


It is customary for the Featured Blogger, to introduce themselves.

So, for those of you who don't already know me - Hi, I'm Kim. This is my Korner.

I've been a single parent for the past (almost) six years, of two boys who will be 14 and 10 in a few weeks.

I'm a full time mom.

I'm also a full time employee. I work for a company (in various roles) on a project that is building our new military helicopters.

You won't find me discussing work around here.

I'm sure most wouldn't find it very interesting, and considering it's classified military stuff, I'd have to kill you all afterwards. (that was a joke people!)

And being a working single parent of two active kids ... I just don't have the time to hunt down each and every one of you. (I repeat ... that was a joke people!)

Kids. Pets. Work. And everything in between.

The busy just N-E-V-E-R stops!

If you'd like to know more about us, take a look at Who's Hiding In The Korner?



The BEST way to 'get to know me' is to catch up on some of our adventures. All the curve balls life throws at us, and how we handle them.

I thought I'd put together, what I think, are some of the 'best of' posts from the Korner.

Some deal with parenting issues, some with celebrity pics, and some are just for FUN!


Any parent knows that having kids means dealing with 'stuff' almost daily.

The good stuff, the bad stuff, and the stuff that just leaves you going W-T-F???


It really wouldn't matter to me WHAT my kid's sexual preference was. However, in the case of both my boys ... they like girls and It's All About The Babes & Boobs!


Who knew when I sent my kid off to school for the day, that I'd be getting a call before noon to pick him up for having a ... Shot Of Vodka Before Homeroom, Anyone?


So I Open The Door, And There's The Police ... Yeah, pretty self explanatory!


Mick & Mimi have brainwashed my kid! You Want A WHAT For Christmas?


This blogging thing has occasionally offered a perk or two, in the form of Product Reviews. The people over at Healthy Edudynamics thought I might be interested in reviewing a Parenting Handbook for the 'tough' questions kids ask. Ahhhh Puberty. It's Going To Be An Interesting Ride. Blink. Blink Blink. Is It Over Yet?


Have you had the DRUGS conversation with your kid yet? I did ... Call It My Pre-Intervention.


So what do you do/say, when your kid thinks he's the next WWE Superstar? Now What The Heck Can I Say To THAT?


I Lost My Kid. Then I Found Him Again. Yeah. 'Nuff said.


They're not just learning the three R's at school anymore ya know! Reading, Riting (yes, I know, misspelled, but keeping with the R theme), Rithmatic, and ... Masturbation! YIKES! MOM! Wanna Know What I Learned Today?



I'm a mom 24/7. Every day. Except for those couple of weekends a month the boys are with their dad.

On those weekends, after dealing with all the parenting, work, life issues, it's time for Mama to relax and/or have some FUN!!!


My BF and I try to go out every few months for a Girls Karaoke Night Out! Oh, but not just ANY karaoke ... COUNTRY karaoke!!! No, we're not the next Faith and Shania, but you know what ... We Have Fans? WHO KNEW?!?!?!


This one's for Eddie Murphy fans. VINTAGE Eddie Murphy fans. This is not of the Daddy Daycare variety. I enjoyed a lazy Sunday morning one day, remembering why I was always Delirious for Eddie!


Do we have any Country music fans in the house? I Spent Thanksgiving With Carrie Underwood! and went Back To School With Brad Paisley!


OK, sure, everyone knows Brad and Carrie, but what about Johnny Reid?!?! So ... WHO is Johnny Reid?


Then there was the night my BF and I unintentionally showed up at a POF gathering. Yeah. Plenty of Fish? More Like Lots Of Seaweed!


A couple of years ago, the boys started watching Wrestling. Yes, Wrestling. If big, sweaty muscles in tights or speedos are your thing, then check out how WWE Rocked Halifax! Or anything under the category Wrestling ... Yes ... Wrestling LOL


Anyone believe in ghosts? Or up for A Little Paranormal Activity Perhaps?


The story about the hockey legend? That would be The One Where My Dad Hangs Up On Guy Lafleur



And then, there are the serious issues ...


Have you had your boobs squeezed lately? Happy Birthday! Please Place Boob Here ......


Since the whole tornado episode was highlighted in the title, I'd better throw in that post too! From the Beach to Tornado in a day ... Summer Vacation Adventures Part II


The Fascination With James Bulger, And His Killers - A follow up to the James Bulger post I wrote just over a year ago. The original has generated the most hits and comments in the Korner.

Both of these pages have seen spikes in the past week, since one of the murderers has been returned to prison for a release violation.


When the ex and I first separated, he moved to a four unit building. A killer lived among them. This Ain't Mr. Roger's Neighbourhood Baby!


And finally, fans of the show Hoarders may enjoy the story behind My Dirty Little Secret


That's it!

Well, not really, but if you want more, you'll have to start digging through the archives or categories.

Thanks for stopping by, everyone!

And if you're a new visitor, I hope you found something today that will bring you back to the Korner, and join us for another adventure.


BIG THANKS to SITS for highlighting me today as the Featured Blogger!

Cause ya know what that means ... Sing it, Danny!


Today is MY day Bro'!
