Does anyone know what day and time 'Un Pedacito del Sabor de Mexico' (a small chocolate store located on the lakeside of Ajijic plaza) open these days? TIA

I recently received an absentee ballot for Pennsylvania. It contains only for U.S. Senate and U.S. House, not for the governor nor the state-wide offices. It turned out that this is because when I requested the ballot I indicated that my return to the U.S. was uncertain. Just if you, the fellow ex-Pennsylvanians, wonder why.

The 24th is the suggested date for returning the request for a ballot, not the ballot itself.

It clearly says 'return your ballot'. I don't think you request 'the request for a ballot'.

This may be one of the most important US elections of our lifetime so please take time to cast your ballot. Many states require that ballots be sent by snail-mail so don't put this off. 

Step #1 to vote in the Midterms, request your ballot now at VoteFromAbroad.org.
Step #2 follow the instructions for the last U.S. state where you were registered to vote.
Step #3 return your ballot by 24 September to ensure it arrives on time
Step #4 if you have been purged from the voting rolls, go to VoteFromAbroad.org or contact VoteLakeChapala @ gmail.com for help with re-registering. 

If you are a US citizen, actions taken can have a direct impact on you, even when living in Mexico. For example any changes to Social Security would impact most all of us. It is your right to vote so please don't put it off. 
 

Can I ask why 24 September specifically? Am I missing something?

Thanks, Ibarra, almost exactly the average for the year with more to come.

Actually, it's much more than average. You cannot simply compare this year's number to the other years' or the average on the chart ('https://ajijicweather.com/wxrainhistory.php'). This year's number is only 'up to today'. If you want to see the ''YTD' comparison, go to the home page of the ajijicweather.com. It says 9.66 inches more this year. It's a lot in my opinion.

Don't think I need an increased dose of paranoia, but thanks for letting me know.  I look at the new listings on chapalamls every day and see a lot for Chapala Haciendas.  Have wondered if it's due to any crime increases there or other reasons, or just is.

There are new construction ones - a few that a spouse died and they returned NOB and were renting and now the owner decided to put on the market since the market is better than a few years ago - one wants to travel more - personal reasons (not related to crime) - people splitting up - one wants more space - some just want to go back NOB - owner death and house put up for sale - weekenders wanting to sell - just the trend now - plenty on the market everywhere.

We had ours done about 2 months ago - cleaning roof - new membrane and caulking, sealer - we used our contractor Gustavo Marquez - 333-157-3048 - we use Gus for everything - not the cheapest but we can always depend on him. He has been in business well over20+ years,

Seren - PM sent

Do you mind me asking ... what made you choose Dr Bimbela over Dr. Hernandez and Dr. Ben. I know Dr. Ben is getting older and perhaps vision and accuracy are a little challenged but he has been highly recommended in the past. Dr. Hernandez I know nothing about -only that he has taken Dr. Bens place at Casa Montana. Thanks purple flower! 🌸 

Will send you a PM

Hello. I too am looking at plastic surgery in Guadalajara. Dr. Hernandez comes recommended on line but he has no web site with before after pics.  Can anyone provide a little more personal info about there experience?

I met with Dr. Ben - Dr. Hernandez and Dr. Bimbela. I chose Dr. Bimbela  of Plasticalift in Chula Vista and could not be happier with the results .I am almost a month out with my surgery.  I waited years to do it and was a bit nervous but I would not hesitate to use Dr. Bimbela again, actually I will probably use him again for my arms when the weather gets cooler. I have a friend that has also used him including many of her friends, all were very satisfied.

Cosmetic (Plastic) Surgeon - Dr. Sergio Bimbela - Chulavista 130 - Tel: 108-0595   - 688-1820  - highly recommend him.

Here is the web site link for Lakeside friends of the animals that we maintain. It has a list of foods they carry - you can also contact them to find out if they have added to the list. Omar is the Manager and Sue is the President of LFA. http://lfa-chapala.com/

Dr. Hernandez at Integrity - I went to see another Urologist here and the first words out of his mouth were "what insurance did I have and I need surgery".  No I did not need surgery - Dr. Hernandez treats my condition the same as my Urologist NOB always did.

Georgia she is back, I was at the dentist across the hall from her office in Joco and he said she is back and she was seeing patients that day I was there.

Thanks for letting us know she is back. I had an appointment with her yesterday in her Joco office. She has been my GYN for several years and I prefer her to anyone else I have seen here. I am thrilled that she is back. Her fee is also a bit lighter than what is being charged here in Ajijic.
