  1. My good friend who is hispanic and lived here for years, knows the ins and outs of getting govt documents, passports, visas, car licenses, pay taxes or what ever  you need.  She started Paso A Paso a charity group who helps under priviledged children.  She is totally honest and very prompt and always is quick to communicate.  And she has many references.

    I'm reading that people who are trying to pay their property tax and do their auto registration online are having problems. I recall over the years, there were people who would do it for me (and others). If you know someone who does this, a phone number or some contact information will be appreciated.

    I would prefer someone you have used, with references, for obvious reasons.

    Thanks

    My friend Myrian Mendez  331 501 2325 is great.  She is totally bilingual and has lived here for years.  Does many things like that and helping people get their government documents also.  She has a charity, Paso A Paso.  Totally honest

    You may want to try stopping at places that sell those items.    

    Hi Ibarra.  Yes I went to walmart he had one and said to come back in 30 minutes, then didnt give it to me, but small ones instead.....lol....went to Soriana, Elektra, Muebles America, Tio Sam and many other places.  No luck.  Im sure they keep them to deliver the ones that are bought.  But thank you.  My other option is pool noodles bent as an arch with black plastic drapped over....so we will see.  But thanks for the suggestion.

  5. Hi Ibarra.  I just found a recent article January 23 stating that evidently there is a temporary building and already 55 students enrolled. Looks like they are beginning to build the permanent structures.  The guy that donated all the 20 hectares wants to develop the land around it.  Then I guess the cost of our land is going up???

  6. Is there an older woman that needs overnight care?  My good mexican Christian friend cares for a woman in west Ajijic.  My friend is very loving and patient and loves her job,  but she is looking for something much closer to her home in Chapala as she has 3 children.  She is looking for hours of 9pm to 7am the next morning and prefers caring for a woman.

    She just graduated from the nursing school where she graduated at the top of her class. She begins her 400 hours of hospital training where she will be working in a hospital and the Red Cross.  She does not speak english but has the "Say Hi App" which is very very good.  The gringa she works for now speaks no spanish but they do well together.  If you need anyone you can call me for more information.  Thank you.

  7. Hi Lexy.  I am so very sorry.  Yes last year we lost $2,000 US from that ATM.  Our bank in Texas did return it but it took a while.  We never use CiBanco again.  Also, Banorte in chapala was very good for a long time.  Then we lost money there, got it back but never use it either anymore.  We have not had any problems with Santander in Chapala with a fee of 34 pesos.  The walmart ATM fee is 174 pesos.  A total gringo rip off

    Or you could do what I do and not shop there. After too many horror stories about WalMart and their lack of anything resembling quality control: unwanted ingredients in their food, both human and pet, (made especially for WalMart so it is cheaper), poor quality components in manufactured items.... I shop elsewhere. Maybe they have stuff I want??? I guess I'll never know. 😁

    yes we RARELY go there.  Little mom and pop stores are cheaper, meat markets, and produce markets.  If i need something those dont have Id rather go to  Soriana or Surtidor.  I dont like walmarts politics.

    I called him yesterday. He returned my call as promised in the afternoon. He will be coming by today to see what I want done. This is just work as needed. Stuff I can't or don't want to do. His English is perfect and says he has all necessary tools plus truck. So far, so good. 

    that is great, hope it works out.  Yes he spent his whole life in the states

    Please talk to Dr Daniel at DanVet next to Soriana and can someone please post this on the various local Facebook Mascota sites? These used to be a neighborhood watch group for the Haciendas. If they are still active, post there. Thank you Shag for all you are doing but there must be someone who can give you some help.

    NewMtnmama you have a huge heart.  Thank you so much.  I just saw your post.  Ok, I will talk to that vet.  I went to Ladrone, The Ranch, talked to Bon Voyage, posted here, and put on Friendly Gringos and talked to Scruffy Dog Rescue in Ixtsy City.  Also, talked to Sue and the dog store who also has a huge heart.  She has tons of dogs.  She took a little 3 legged dog we found and got him a surgery and he was adopted quickly. But I know someone will come along.  This morning I gave them eggs, pork, linseed, vitimins, green beens and all flavored with bacon.  They lapped it up like it was their last meal.  They loved it.

  11. There are 2 sweet young dogs that were dumped on the side of the highway north of Haciendas at the JUCUM sign going to Ixtlahuacan out away from everyone about 2 weeks ago.  They stay there hoping I guess for the return of their owner.  Growing skinnier by the day and afraid eventually they will be hit by cars. I have 3 already and cannot take them, but wish I could.   Ive called the ranch.  They are full and saw other shelters are full.  Does anyone know who might take them?  Boswellbarbara3@gmail.com
