You know those days you just feel good? Today was You know those days you just feel good? Today was one of those days. Maybe it’s the super comfy outfit that fit just right. Maybe it’s the Diet Coke. Maybe it’s cause I get to go into the office to see people for a bit. Either way, today’s been a good day 😉 Who has been stuck at home because of CoVid? I started a new job in March and after 6 days, I was deemed non-essential. Luckily, they found work for me to do from home! I’ve been in the office a total of 4 times since then. Now with weekly meetings, I’m so excited to get out of the house regularly, other than to when I take the kids to school or run to get groceries! Does anyone else work for a business that allows for a relaxed dress code? What are some of your essential pieces?

3 loud and energetic kids splashing away, WAY down 3 loud and energetic kids splashing away, WAY down river. A perfect way to end a busy day, and what seems like, a crazy couple of weeks. Are you reading anything good right now? What’s your go to book genre/type? 9/10 times, I’m reading something from @jamespattersonbooks. My Pops sent me 2 recently and I finished the Alex Cross one, but haven’t started the Epstein one yet. Can’t decide between that one next, or continuing the Women’s Murder Club series...I’m on the 11th one.... Other books I’ve read (as an adult)? Not many 😂 @ficklefishfilms Twilight series, and yes, I’ll be reading Midnight Sun, too. @jennyhan’s To All The Boys I Loved Before. And yes. I’ve seen all the movies 😊 I sadly cannot remember any other books I’ve read since graduating High School! I like to read the books before I watch the movies. Is anyone else like that? I cannot read a book after watching the movie. I’ve tried! The girls and I have been watching @thehungergames and Ally has reread the books 3 or 4 times now. She keeps asking me if I’ll read the books now since I like the movies. I won’t! She thinks I’m weird 😂 #toalltheboysivelovedbefore #jennyhan #bookstagram #booklover #readmorebooks #readabook #jamespatterson #jamespattersonbooks #hungergames #hungergamesbooks #suzannecollins #hungergamesmovie #river #lazyriverlife #riverlife #countryliving #missouri #missourioutdoors #swimminghole #riverrat #outdoorfun #twilight #twlight #stephaniemeyer #midnightsun #epstein #jefferyepstein
Back in the day, 9 outta 10 times, my idea of rive Back in the day, 9 outta 10 times, my idea of river refreshments would include some kind of alcohol. 5 years after baby #2, my body screams NOOOOO when I even consider the idea 😂 I ❤️ these clear whey protein options from @idealfit. The idea of a milky protein shake, on the river, in the hot sun, just doesn’t sound very enticing. But these.... 🤤 These juice like protein drinks are 80-90 calories depending on the flavor 20g of protein 6 flavors to choose from: Tropical Dragonfruit Lemonade Mojito Strawberry Apple & Cranberry Iced Tea Mix with 20-24oz of cold water, let it settle, and mix again. If it’s not all dissolved, shake it up and let it sit one more time. I went with Mojito this time, and it was like paradise......on a river....in Missouri....during a pandemic 😂 Which flavor would you choose?

I’ve lived out here in the middle of no where MO I’ve lived out here in the middle of no where MO for 12 years now. There still aren’t a whole lot of things I love about it. But, one thing I absolutely love, is the many options we have for river access! We went on a short float last night, from Klein to Cedar Ford. We had been to Cedar Ford before, but never Klein. We also discovered Wesco! And that was much bigger than we expected! Jayson got home around 3 and decided we should go on a short evening float. I actually despise being outdoors. But, put me on/at a river, and I am one happy lady! Did you know I had never gone floating before I met Jayson? People out here have a hard time understanding, but there just aren’t many rivers in the city 😂 Are you a pool, lake, river, or dry land kinda person? I’m honestly terrified of water. And I’m always sooo cold. I hate being in water unless it’s bath water warm! @intexrecreationcorp inflatable kayak -and- I spy some @idealfit clear whey protein code DIANE gets you 15% off anytime, as often as you want #riverrat #riverrats #summerfloat #floating #riverlife #riverfloat #floattrip #kayak #kayaking #kayakingadventures #kayakingadventure #inflatablekayak #inflatablekayaks #intexkayak #adventureoutdoors #missouri #meremacriver #meramecriver #cedarford #kidsadventures
People make “dieting” so hard or so miserable. People make “dieting” so hard or so miserable. Chipotle yesterday, cheesy buffalo chicken today, and I’m still on track to win this diet bet with some of my favorite people 😜 5 ingredient Super easy Buffalo Cheesy Chicken wrap made in under 15 minutes: 1 low carb tortilla 6oz chicken breast (weighed raw) 1/4c buffalo sauce 10g dry ranch seasoning 28g shredded cheese 357cal 46p 22c 15f #chicken #chickenrecipes #buffalochicken #wrap #lunch #lunchtime #macros #trackingmacros #macrotracking #dietbet #dietbetchallenge #easylunch #weightlosscompetition #weightloss #leaningout #leaningoutslowly #iifym #flexibledieting #flexibleeating #flexibleeatingandfitness #flexibleeatinglifestyle #countingmacros #diet #dietplan #dietfood #lowcarb #missiontortillas #queso #macrocounting
Instagram ➡️ Reality 🤪 Made it at home but Instagram ➡️ Reality 🤪 Made it at home but took the kids to have lunch with Jayson One benefit of working from home is getting able to make what I actually feel like eating, when I’m ready to eat! I saw some Philly Cheesesteaks on tv and thought that sounded delicious! Except I didn’t have yummy buns or steak. But, I easily improvised 🙃 6oz chicken breast 1 low carb tortilla (15g of fiber!!) 30g green pepper 30g onion 15g queso - homemade cheese sauce would have been much better, but the queso was 👌🏼 Salt & pepper, a dash of ground oregano & thyme One was enough to fill me up, even as my only meal so far today. But with the macros, two would’ve been perfectly fine too! 42p 24c 9f 294cal #chicken #chickenrecipes #chickenphilly #phillycheesesteak #wrap #lunch #lunchtime #macros #trackingmacros #macrotracking #dietbet #dietbetchallenge #weightlosscompetition #weightloss #leaningout #leaningoutslowly #iifym #flexibledieting #flexibleeating #flexibleeatingandfitness #flexibleeatinglifestyle #countingmacros #diet #dietplan #dietfood #lowcarb #missiontortillas #queso #macrocounting
Diet bet with a few of my favorite people started Diet bet with a few of my favorite people started today! I’ve spent the majority of the last (almost) 35 years being so insecure about my body. I’m honestly ok with my current physical self. It’s got some lumps in a few places and some squishiness in others, but for not paying attention to what I eat and my lack of working out, I’m doing pretty dang good! When some of my most favorite people said, “hey, we should do some kind of weight loss competition together,” I was so excited! I can never get people to focus on their meals or activity levels with me! Plus, stuff like this is so much more fun and encouraging when you have people to do it with! Meal 1 for the day. I’ve been craving fried rice lately, so I made this chicken & broccoli with fried “rice.” Hit the spot and even my kid tried taking it from me! 569 cal 64p 37c 16f 9oz chicken 85g broccoli 85g cauliflower rice 48g mixed veggies 1 egg Plus some cornstarch, soy sauce, sesame oil and oyster sauce Do you ever substitute cauliflower for rice? I don’t mind it at all, just depends on the mood or goal!

Jaysons been asking what I wanna do for my Mother’s Day. Good food is always a no brainier. He picked up a couple ribeye steaks and filet mignon 🤤 I am so ridiculously excited about them 😂 I was going through the pics on my phone, trying to delete duplicates or blurry ones, and came across this one. And now, I want to go fishing tomorrow 🎣 Does anyone have any kind of tradition with their mom or kiddos?

Cake Inspiration found on @pinterest by: @butterfi Cake Inspiration found on @pinterest by: @butterfingersbake Chocolate Ganache & American Butter Cream recipe by: @chelsweets Jaryd turned 5 on the 12th. Too bad he was home sick 🙁 we cancelled his party that same weekend too because he wasn’t fever free for 24 hours. Rescheduled it for the next weekend. Had to cancel that one too because there would’ve been way more than 10 people 😷 So, I finally made a cake, scheduled a meeting on @zoom_video_communications and had a mini party to celebrate! We were able to get friends, family & even our favorite teacher in on the call! I can’t wait to actually have a party for him! We bought inflatable dinosaur costumes 🤪 What are some of the things you’ve had to cancel due to CoVid-19? Have you found any silver linings? I complain about my kids 😂 but I’m really fortunate to be able to work from home during this time and still able to help them with their school work! I really enjoy helping with school work! #5thbirthday #birthdaycake #birthday #cake #kidscake #kidscakes #nailedit #diycake #chocolateganache #ganache #ganachecake #dinosaurcake #dinosaurtheme #chelsweets #buttercream #buttercreamcake #buttercreamfrosting #dinocake #dinocakes #dinosaurparty #dinoparty #fifthbirthday #coronacancelled #cancelledplans #corona #coronavirusoutbreak #coronavirus
So in love with the @riverdance 25th Anniversary s So in love with the @riverdance 25th Anniversary show 🥰 I remember watching clips on tv when I was little. I loved it so much and watched it every time, even if it was something I had already watched many times before! I thought I knew what to expect, but it still blew my mind! Jayson got us tickets for Christmas, and it happened fall on Valentines weekend, which worked out nicely 😀 he loved it just as much, if not more! Seriously, so incredible! I would spend the money on it again if they came back! #thefabulousfox #thefabulousfoxtheatre #fabulousfox #fabulousfoxtheatre #fabulousfoxstl #thefabulousfoxtheater #riverdance #riverdance25 #riverdance25thanniversary #missouri #stl #stlouis #stlmo #stlouismo #stlouismissouri #discoverstl #discoverstlouis #irishdance #playbill #riverdancer #datenight #daydate #datenightideas #datenights

If only we had a real camera... Whitaker Point in If only we had a real camera... Whitaker Point in Arkansas is a must! It took us about 3.5 hours from Mid-Mo. I would’ve happily driven much longer! See my previous posts about or early morning trail run to get here 😂 I have an iPhone 6....it still works 🤷🏻‍♀️ Jayson has a 10 and he got some really good photos of our Arkansas trip. But I think it’s time for us to get away from iPhone shots for our trips. What kind of camera do you use or suggest? We don’t need anything fancy. Maybe a step or two above a basic point and shoot but not one with entirely too many buttons and options! #hawksbillcrag #whitakerpoint #whitakerpointtrail #visitarkansas #ozarks #ozarkmountains #newtoncounty #sunrise #newtoncountyarkansas #hiking #camping #altrarunning #trailrun #buffalonationalriver #thenaturalstate #outdoorlife #explorearkansas #ozarknationalforest #arkansas #arkansasoutdoors #ozarkansas #weekendgetaway #morningsunrise #weekendgetaways #vlog #blogger #vlogger #wonderfularkansas #shotoniphone
Just rehydrating after a trail run at 6:30am Sunda Just rehydrating after a trail run at 6:30am Sunday morning. Jayson and I got up at 5:30, left our camper, threw on our headlamps, hit the trail at 6:40, and raced the sun to Whitaker Point. The sun beat us, but barely! Totally worth the spill I took running in the dark! My left shoulder and right knee are feeling it today though 🤦🏻‍♀️ Have you ever been on the Hawksbill Crag trail in Kingston, AR? The “crag” is the rock formation I’m sitting next to in the pic. Hard to see, but check out my previous post to see the whole view! This is just past the incredible site that is “Whitaker Point.” It is a MUST SEE for sure! Totally worth the 40* morning, slip up on the trail, lack of sleep the night before and 5:30am alarm! Thankful for my @idealfit Seamless Long Sleeve that kept my cool and dry under many layers! My shaker cup is getting some Peach Lemonade BCAAs added in 😋 Peach Lemonade BCAAs is only $16.34 and the Long Sleeve Seamless is only $11.55 when you use code DIANE15 #hawksbillcrag #hawksbillcragtrail #whitakerpoint #whitakerpointtrail #visitarkansas #ozarks #ozarkmountains #newtoncounty #sunrise #newtoncountyarkansas #hiking #camping #daydate #trailrun #buffalonationalriver #thenaturalstate #outdoorlife #explorearkansas #ozarknationalforest #arkansas #arkansasoutdoors #ozarkansas #weekendgetaway #morningsunrise #weekendgetaways #ad #idealfitforce #idealfit
