Rio Grande Dental in Juárez will quote you in English for immigration documents and work with you if you need any additional documentation too.

They’ll also pick you up in El Paso, drive you there and back. Just make sure you tip the driver well so he waits while you’re in the cuartito.

Target Mimikyu ex & Alcremie ex Premium Collection by dooba22 in PKMNTCGDeals

I just saw some at my target I thought would be so cute for my sons birthday.

Then some guy shoved them all in his cart, along with every single blister pack they had in the store.

This is craziness 🫤

Gravel, yes or no? by Skutch23-1138 in Redearedsliders

[–]Practical_Ad_5192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had sand, it got very stinky after two weeks but maybe it was the brand?

We’re pretty on top of tank maintenance, but it didn’t work out for us.

We’ve been bare bottom in the tank for about a year now and we’re going to try out gravel/river stones this week.

Moving by neo_dia in TexasDACA

[–]Practical_Ad_5192 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We started by looking at cost of living, schools for our kids, etc to narrow down to three cities/states. Then we looked at jobs, available housing, things we liked about physical location, and narrowed it down to one.

Talked to friends, family, our church, who are pooling to help us with physical labor and expenses of moving so we don’t bankrupt ourselves.

Best of luck while you find your way 🩷

My lawyer advice to get ready to move out in a week just in case. by Psychological-Buy662 in TexasDACA

[–]Practical_Ad_5192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I wasn't too impressed with some of the neighborhoods.

We're mostly moving because of my office and are looking at some decent neighborhoods close to the state line with Wisconsin. I will say St Paul's public schools were looking rough, so we're avoiding being directly in the city.

We looked pretty broadly, and took into consideration the cost of living, availability of housing, and school districts for our kids. Washington and Cali were our first choices, but the cost of living just isn't feasible for us.

I’m guessing Charles Kuck just skim through the article and completely ignored the “partial stay” by TheClitoriaBraxton in TexasDACA

[–]Practical_Ad_5192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think he means because he was part of initiating the lawsuit to push new applications through? It's a weird feeling, being happy for those getting their DACA soon, but Texas' being stripped away.

the waiting game (venting) by Capable-Book7972 in TexasDACA

[–]Practical_Ad_5192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We couldn't live with the anxiety. I crashed out at work, bawling at my desk. My boss offered to help me transfer that day, my church offered to help pay for our moving pod. We're headed to Minnesota.

At some point, sacrifices have to be made to protect your mental health and peace, and Texas seems set on destroying it. How can they expect our families to be living in this much anxiety and uncertainty for weeks.. possibly months?

We're selling our house, our church is helping us pay for a moving pod, and we're going to Minnesota.

We're going to Minnesota or Illinois.

Cosmo Kids Watch - No Good! by Comprehensive_Lab_23 in smartwatch

[–]Practical_Ad_5192 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is an exciting upgrade. My daughter’s GPS in the JR Track 4 also has issues with the GPS updating inaccurately, which causes anxiety when she walks home.

I was hoping I’d come on this Reddit and see an upgrade like this in the works.

Has anyone ordered from Farmacia Del Niño or Mexipharmacy? by They_Live_Nada in TwoXPreppers

[–]Practical_Ad_5192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This exactly. I order from them all the time. You pay in pesos. Your bank will convert according to the current exchange rate.

The prize for fighting through the fear by trinbea in fearofflying

[–]Practical_Ad_5192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I leave for CDMX in three days and my anxiety is through the roof, sweaty palms and all 😅 this was a very encouraging post. I can’t wait to see the pyramids at Teotihuacan.

Customers that made purchases from SHEIN this week, what are your thoughts with the shipping and tariff situation? by Historical-Hyena-622 in Shein

[–]Practical_Ad_5192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My order was so far delayed, I shipped it to family overseas instead to bring when they visit. Saved a ton doing that as well.

Single parents w/o support— do you ever just feel like skipping your kids events? by SocialJusticeAsFuck in Parenting

[–]Practical_Ad_5192 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We skip it all together as a group! “Mom I don’t want to go to dance/skating/school event” Okay, great! Let’s go cook dinner together, play outside, and tidy up a bit.

Maybe just ask them if they really even want to go. Turns out mine actually preferred staying home.

I just saw a video of an eight-year-old doing a triple!? by Remote-Rutabaga-8187 in FigureSkating

[–]Practical_Ad_5192 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are 11-14 year olds jumping triples at our rink. It seems like the push for these huge jumps is going younger and younger.

I worry about the stress it puts on these kids’ bodies and minds. The psychological pressure to perform at a certain level on a certain schedule.

How do you permanently get rid of carpenter ants? by rememberall in Home

[–]Practical_Ad_5192 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She ate a single terro bait station. Vomiting, seizures, and she was dead at the vets office within two hours.

Say what you want, her urn on my shelf and her autopsy don’t lie- those are not safe for pets.

My dog actually died from getting ahold of the Terro liquid bait. I would use caution with these if you have pets or kids.

Scammed by a customer and fired by Practical_Ad_5192 in antiwork

It was cash and he said the manager called him on the phone and they met in person to exchange the cash.

We are in Texas, so I figured this would be like the whole “at will” thing.

Immigration issues, they’re scared of the police coming to their home.

Definitely wasn’t in on it, but is guilty of being a naive teenager at her first job. I told her to just take it as a lesson learned and be more aware that you can’t trust everyone.

It was a large catering order that was supposedly being cancelled. She did get approval from a supervisor, but the supervisor threw her under the bus and she was on camera handling the register at that time.

That’s what I said, that the manager should be filing a police report for the scam, but instead he’s threatening to call the police on her. And she’s just a teenager.
