    Note to self: "Do not give detailed instructions after 10 pm at night. You're tired."

    Oh I wish!  In my case, do not do anything like that, make important decisions, or try to figure out anything more complicated than a crossword puzzle. Only for ME, that magic hour is 5 pm

  2. BUT........... big rig truckers (nationwide) have called a general strike in certain states ( Jalisco at top of the "danger" list) on Monday Feb 5, starting at 8 a.m.  Protesting unsafe highways, robbings, killings, dangerous work condtions, etc.     Chapala-Guad hwy, macrolibramiento, and to an extent periférico all named as major trouble spots. NOt clear in the following if they'll just block one lane, or ???    Anyone heading to airport for Monday a.m.best take into consideration!!

  3. THIS Carrol was  mid 80's, devoted her life to "Scottie" (her dog) until he grew too old and frail, and in the last 6 months of this year was a frail little lady (less than 95 lbs) in tremendous pain since last summer, with more health issues discovered in the fall.  Cannot see her as a garage / yard sale person but.........?

    Lived on corner Nicolas Bravo / 16 Septiembre. I know more, but at this point nobody's business other then perhaps by p.m.

  4. Meanwhile in   Edmonton, Alberta, Canada it was predicted to go to -50C with wind chill of -60C   ( -40C = -40F).... only a little worse than the night and day previously. My sister said second night in a row for emergency power grid alerts applying to the entire province.   Anyone whose car needs a tow---- from a roadway or whatever--- was facing an eight DAY wait as of Friday noon  🥶

  5. Excuse me, but if you plan to die HERE what you will get is a Mexican Death Certificate.  Can't say for U.S., but Canadian gov't will need at least 2 and when I was last involved with a death, one agency accepted certified translation, and other  only wanted certified copy and they would translate on their end.  Then you need to plan where else in U.S.  will need ( banks,  life insurance company , investment houses, etc etc..  Funeral home gets them and you can tell them in advance how many certified copies you'll need.  OR you may need some that are certified AND notarized.... by a Mexican Notaria Publica.  

    I THINK what you're talking about is the service provided by U.S: Consulate in Guad where they will do the certified/translated  ENGLISH copies of the Mexican original for you. (Canada doesn't have that service).  And yes, I do believe it's $50 per copy whether sooner or later.  Go for the $13.4 K pesos.  Let whomever is left when you're gone do the hoop jumping, once they have appropriate written instructions in your plan.
