Oh my! It's already Wednesday!

Yup, it's already Wed 28th Nov.!! And coming to an end, too! Time is now 10:43pm as I key in this line...
When one is healthy (more or less...hehe...) and with no major issues at hand, days would just pass us by. Routine days. Nothing really exciting to write about...

The pile driver is now farther away. So the thumping is not so intrusive as before. But feel it would be soon when piles have to be driven in for nearer lots of the houses to be built. Until then, we treasure the change!

My ole junk has decided to trouble me (altho slightly) with a minor problem. It felt warmer & slow to cool down when we move around in it. At first we blamed the inexplicable hot weather we're having. But then it wasn't like that before.

Yup...as suspected, it's the air-con system of the car. Traces of oil were detected just at the junction where the pressure valve sits. On Monday, I took the car to have it checked and that attachment was tightened. Told to come back after a couple of days. This morning me took the car back & there appeared to be no more leaks. Gas was added to the system. Rm15 flew. After visits to 2 local Malls, the location of the leak was re-checked. Not good news. Traces of oil were again detected. At the same joint.

Plan to see how bad the leak really is after a few more days...with the tiniest of hope that the leaking joint might seal itself. Otherwise, more detail investigation of the actual cause of the leakage would be the only way out. More $$ would then be involved. Like some ppl would just say...it's only $$. Not some insurmountable problem.

Believe it or not...there are ppl around (young ppl esp) who believe that old ppl's ole junks never have problems & never needs any maintenance! That these ole junks...like the old ppl themselves...can just go on and on and on....
Would be just fantastic if only that were, even in the least bit, true! Ha ha!

Well, what can I say? Life has to go on...& tomorrow will still come along & pass...somehow.
