Not much happening.
I’m not liking the time change. By the time I get home from work at 5:30 it is almost dark outside. I definitely don’t like that I’m not able to do my outside walking in the evenings. I will have to save it for the weekends. Yesterday as soon as I walked out the door at work to go home my cell rang and it was a friend of mine wanting to know if I was going walking. Hello? By the time I get home and change it will be too dark and when I told her that she acted surprised. WTH? Can’t you do the math? Sometimes I let little things get on my nerves.
I finally tried hummus. I bought some with roasted red peppers in it because it looked the most appealing to me. It was pretty good. I don’t think it is something that I’d buy on a regular basis but I’d probably buy it every once in a while for something different.
I love the resistance tubes that I have been using. I think they will really be good to tone up my arms. If I keep at it all winter hopefully I will have tank top arms by spring. 
My daughter asked me for my Christmas list; I told her to get me a couple of exercise dvds so I can switch it up over the winter when I am stuck inside. An exercise ball would be good too. It is my goal to be able to wear shorts next summer. I haven’t worn shorts for about 5-6 years. Too much cellulite. I will only wear capris now. I have about 40 more pounds to get to my goal weight.
This morning I have a short informational class on student involvement and activities. I think it is about how to start student clubs, organizations, sororities and frats and so on. How exciting. Luckily it is a short class. Well, I’d better do some work.
Make it a great day, ladies!

Yeah I hear ya on the frustration with getting dark earlier… it’s not working well for me, either! Oh well, guess we just have to adapt and find a way to make it work!
Glad you liked the hummus! I go through periods of really craving it and then not eating some for a few months.
You silly girl! Shorts no matter what next summer! You only live once! :: hugs ::
I also don’t enjoy daylight savings either! I wake up and it’s light, I go home and it’s getting dark- I feel like I get nothing accomplished because by the time I turn around it’s dark!
I read around online there are so many people who hate it- I’m like let’s just get rid of it :p
My arms never will be tank top ready. The loose skin makes me nutso. I am trying to fill it out with muscle. It is better, but still not great.. sigh
Maybe you can go mall walking if you want to keep walking.. some people really like that. I am afraid I do too much SPENDING!
A friend of mine gave me a super easy very delicious hummus recipe that I’ve made hundreds of times. It’s a great dip for veggies and is always a hit when you have people over - even if you also have something more tradiional & creamy also on offer. I used to make it about every 2 weeks or so - much less now because i’m no longer eating beans & chickpeas, but if you’re trying to find healthy lower fat, vegetarian protein foods, it’s a real winner!
