Get in shape

Hubby and I went to our college friends house yesterday and they were all shocked on how the hubby looked. I know he gained a lot in the last two years and it's not good. Some were advising us to get in shape because the hubby doesn't look healthy anymore. Now I'm checking on moyoberry reviews, they say it will help the hubby get in shape.

Checklist

I've been writing my checklist on items will I need to buy for the apartment. It's obvious that we need a dining table and a rice cooker, Moen kitchen faucets for kitchen and bathroom. We also have a plain old mono block two-seater chair. You guessed it right, we need a living room set. But we might buy one some other time because we're on a tight budget.

Day sleep

It's still summer because we can still feel the heat especially in the middle of the day. And it's hard to stay asleep in this kind of weather. My job requires shifting schedule and this time, I'm on night shift. It's get very irritated everytime when I wake up because of the heat. Sleeping is one of the important things we need. If don't get enough sleep these next few days, I might take sleep aids to help me sleep during the day.

Breakouts

It's that time of the month again that I get breakouts and I hate it. Breakouts only comes once a month, usually before my period. I'm sure I'm not the only ones who has this problem. I wish they have some kind of acne pills that I can take to reduce breakouts so I would go through the trouble of pricking and applying all kinds of peeling formula on my face at the dermatologist.

Loans

Hubby and I talked last night and we had decided to get a loan. Our big move is in progress and one of our worst fears was we might lack funds. As much as possible, I don't want to think about it but we are just thinking -- just in case. I searched for other ways how to get funds and I found out about asset based lending. I hope this will help us out.

Word FaQ

Is it “on behalf of” or “in behalf of”?

Don’t give yourself too big of a Paracetemol headache over this one. The two are generally interchangeable. However, in behalf of all you technical people out there (note the usage), here are the official instructions for untangling these two little hairballs:

Use “in behalf” when you mean “for the benefit of”, the way I did earlier.
There was a fund raiser held in behalf of the many homeless children in the Philippines.

Use “on behalf” when you mean “as an agent of” or “on the part of”.
Terry accepted the award on behalf of her friend, who could not make it to the ceremony.

The promise

I mentioned that we've moving outta here right. Yes I did. We plan to move within the next two weeks. Once the papers are signed and the flat is well cleaned, we're going to start to move our things. I know it'll take us more than two weeks but I'm still pushing so we can meet the deadline. And now that we're finally making this dream a reality, I told the hubby to reduce belly fat big time. He did promise me that so let's see if he'll be keeping that promise.
