My friends came to visit for the weekend and we celebrated my grandmother's birthday. I enjoyed the Solar Eclipse, but even funnier is this video Total Eclipse of the Heart Literal Video. I met up with some knitting friends at Slum Brew in Assembly Row Somerville.  We've had lots of summer fun with the nieces and nephews. Sleepovers, crafts, dance camps etc! Dan and I kayaked the North River. The first half was amazing. The rest was a struggle but we survived! Ha! The kids contracted lice and so kindly shared it with me. Sigh. If you ever have the misfortune, my recommendation is to go to a professional place like this instead of using the drugstore shampoos! Signed up for hiit training for 4 weeks with my work friends. We survived!

Life in Focus   June Happiness Project Focus: Nurture Friendships Do you have ideas? Clever things friends have done for you to show they care? Sending gifts or flowers works, but would like it to be something more thoughtful and heartfelt. On a Happy Note I'm having fun dancing with friends (even though I sprained something in my ribs) We got a great deal at LL Bean on Kayaks and had our first adventure. Went to a lecture by Jessamyn Stanley at Boston Public Library I had an amazing birthday weekend with friends and family. Including our first pool day of the summer! Quote of the Week I think it's nice to age gracefully. OK, you lose the youth, a certain stamina and dewy glow, but what you gain on the inside as a human being is wonderful: the wisdom, the acceptance and the peace of mind. It's a fair exchange. -Cherie Lunghi   ------ Thank you for tuning in!   Contact Information: Ravelry: BostonJen & Down Cellar Studio Podcast Ravelry Group Twitter: Instagram & Periscope: BostonJen1 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/downcellarstudio Sign up for my email newsletter to get the latest on everything happening in the Down Cellar Studio!
