Earlier this week, I watched a Tik Tok video showing a prank a teenage girl played on her father by telling him she was having car trouble and didn’t know why. She said she’d put gas in the car and loved the festive red and green gas pumps the stations were putting out for Christmas like she’d seen on Tik Tok, and that she’d chosen the green one. She knew she wasn’t out of gas.
“You didn’t!” her dad muttered in disbelief, before using a few choice words about staying off of Tik Tok.
When I pulled into the gas station on my way home from a conference yesterday, I chuckled when I saw the pumps. Sure enough – red and green.
I chose the red one.

Kim, this reminds me of our trip to Ireland. We rented a car that took diesel fuel. In Ireland all the pumps are the same, so the diesel nozzle fits into the tank, which would not happen here. One time Ken forgot the car takes diesel and put a few galleys of regular gas into the car. Luckily, it wasn’t enough to damage the engine.

Ah, a blessing for sure that no damage was done. I still want to go to Ireland. When we went down Rt 66, we stopped in Shamrock to see the Blarney Stone there and kiss it. My sister and brother in law rave about the beauty of Ireland!
