Getting handier?

So in the last week my Mini Cooper has been making this awful sound when the fan comes on, sounds like the fan blade is hitting on piece of paper, anyway it’s been driving nuts so I made an appointment with Mini Markham to get it fixed.  This morning I had the bright idea at looking to see if anyone else on the internet has been having the same problem and woo I found others who did and a fix!

I removed the cabin air filter and all these darn leaves fell onto my passenger side leg rest area so I stuck a vacuum in there, sucked out all the debris and the nose is gone. 🙂

With that said, I am in desperate need of a new cabin air filter and I’m a bit surprised it wasn’t changed back in May when routine service was done…

Thinking I’d need a bore scope to see what’s around my Mini cabin intake fan, I went to Princess Auto to buy a bore scope and also picked up this really awesome tool box.

Heh, now all I need is a sixth pistol. 😉

As usual Brandon had a swimming class to go to in the afternoon and after that we picked up aunt Alice and went to my dad’s new gf’s place.  My parents splitting up is not something I’ve really talked about here on my blog but I guess there it is…  Trying to be supportive of both my parents so we went to her home um, in North Richmond Hill and had a good time.

We went out on their fishing boat and caught a few small fish which we threw back because they were too tiny, Brandon liked the idea of fishing but didn’t enjoy the waiting lol…  Afterwards we had a BBQ dinner and chatted.  Monita, the woman my dad is now seeing is pleasant (I would expect as much) and quite friendly, I don’t think it’s an act but I have to be honest at times I did feel a bit uncomfortable.  Now that I’m sitting here in my basement, I feel guilty that I went, I would go again if invited but still I hope my mom is not mad at me. 🙁

I just want my parents to be happy, if not together at least be happy for the rest of their lives.  I’m not pleased with the circumstances but there’s nothing I can do and my parents will always be my parents and being mad won’t help things so I’m trying to do the best I can.
