Hello J oh my... how I had fallen behind in my posts!! It’s been a while since I posted something although
I kept doing some jobs. We are in middle of summer and it is scorching temp of
35° and over, till the point that leaves you lethargic and at times out of
breath... to be honest I feel that we are being roasted alive. Am not a summer
person anymore, when I was younger used to hang out days by the beach. The more
I grew up, I become conscious about being sun burnt and also with the high rates
of skin cancers. It’s not worth it for me anymore, for every day spent by the beach end up applying creams days after and screaming ouch ouch ha-ha J So yes the rest of my summer between my job is going to be
at home feeling fresh, eating healthy salads, summer fruits, and plenty of
refreshing showers. I am hoping to catch on some projects and not forgetting to spend special time with my family and friends.
One weekend I planned to meet an old school friend, while discussing where to eat out, her idea was to go to our sister island Gozo.So we ventured on to have a meal out at Gozo. Don't call us crazy ha-ha J actually it turned out to be a very enjoying eve crossing the channel at night. When it comes to food we were very satisfied, especially the restaurant situated next to the shore, feeling the fresh breeze coming up straight from our Mediterranean sea. I love this island, with it's impeccable beauty especially in winter with all that greenery from the countryside. It’s not so dense like Malta; there are many places of interest from cultural to sightseeing and especially many diving spots. Good food by the sea is never an exception while Gozo lace is abundant for those who love artisan work .

Soon I have to pull my socks up, as my youngest brother is getting married next May and many projects in the pipline wink ;)
