I like it ! But we didn't have "cabanuelas" this year right ?
-
No, never heard of "febreros locos"

Very quickly the cold temps in the morning are gone and we are back into the 80's daytime. Kinda liked the cooler temps myself. Driving is now A/C on all the time.

Applause to having parks open again !! -
I'm considering getting a Sentri pass for driving to and back from the US. Any comments on usefulness of this pass ? Thanks

I for one do not wish him a speedy recovery. This would certainly signal to many people that the pandemic is nothing to be concerned about and maybe even a hoax. Seen this scenario before ? Slow two week recovery with hints of "he might not make it !" would be better.

A president of a country can only get covid due to a combination of ignorance, negligence and/or stupidity. Bad example for any locals if he survives which he most likely will thanks to every possible treatment available to a person in his position. No sympathy for him from me.

If you're going to play pool on some of the local warped tables, it helps to use a matching warped pool cue, especially after some tequila shots. Have fun 😁

Cost of outpatient shoulder arthroscopy

You're asking for guesses, I'm guessing 50k. I recommend Dr Gabriel at Quality Care. -
Finiquito is the payment owed to workers after they are terminated for good. What happens when the employer passes away while they are still employed ? Is the Finiquito payment owed by the estate or offspring or is it cancelled due to death of employer ?

Walmart has gone completely lax even today. Self serve sanitizer and self serve temperature check. go for it

I'm guessing the odds of you getting stopped or checked are about the same as getting eaten by the lake crocodile

The volume of water I see cannot be attributed to house water filtration systems. Some locations have permanent running water in the streets. I'm convinced the source is from underground springs, Perfect example is the corner of San Luis and the Pemex station. There was a crew out there about a month ago working on the street to fix the water situation, but water continues to seep up into the street. Unfortunately locations near this underground water make it practically impossible for septic systems to leach into the ground. I have a soft water system at my house and it "washes" itself for about an hour once per week, very low volume of water is released during the process. I love Riberas but wish it had a sewer system

The undertaking required to replumb older homes from septic to sewer is enormous. When I redid my underground pipes I made an allowance for future septic which would still require opening up my floor, but only about a 4 square foot section and I have a pipe going to the street already in place. I bike around Riberas and soo many streets have water on the surface even now, I just wonder how the septic systems manage in those locations. I think ( and can smell ) that a lot of the water is actually septic overflow which is nasty. I saw a new house being built right on top of an underground spring, the water flow was very high and they had to wait a long time before they could continue with building. The builder doesn't care, he'll be gone with the money by the time it becomes a problem

Mattresses - has anyone heard of Limmcort mattresses?

Mattresses are 90% marketing and 10% content. They invent names on a yearly basis to make it impossible to cross shop. Good Luck ! -
Things we’ve learned living in Mexico

The answer is always "yes we can do that " and " yes I know how to get to where you want to go, just take two right turn then straight and then two left turns" -
Save receipts or get your bank account locked
ea93105 replied to ea93105's topic in Ajijic/Chapala/Guadalajara
I've been happy with BBVA and don't really blame them for their policy ( which I was not aware of ) and my post was to inform those who may also not know, hence the FYI I was relying on the capital gains waver every three years (discussed above) when deciding not to save receipts. I will continue to use BBVA until my balance runs out. Debit card and credit cards still work. -
Bancomer has locked my account from being able to receive any more deposits because I withdrew over one million pesos in a year and I don't have receipts to prove I didn't funnel the money to a cartel or something. I was remodeling a house that year and didn't bother so save whatever receipts I did have, and a lot of it was cash payments for labor. So now I have to close that bank account and open another one.... fyi
