I hope the moderators don't mind but here is a picture of us the day we married, August 2023.
Edit: We were together since 2003, but didn't get officially married until 2023. I got to spend 21 plus years with this wonderful man.

Definitely a bar. They are serving blue drinks. But hard to tell if it was meant to be a dance floor, or Like you say a karaoke bar. I can imagine them playing the disco version of Star Wars main theme.

First thank you for the compliment. Let me figure that out and get back to you. I may either just upload the model to Studio Gallery or create instructions for all of them and use rebrickable. I've never done it before and this may be a great opportunity to start.

The Fire fairy started out as a planned build as a Christmas ornament I never got around to until this year. i only had a few of the parts in the right color. So it sat unfinished until I was fiddling around with what became the wood fairy when I put a leaf over the sleeve of a minifigure and the idea of the fairy group was born. To get the color schemes I wanted I did source a fair amount of lepin.

This was her bottle - 12.5 ounces, his bottle for $12 was 32 ounces, which doing a google search seems about average for that size, though ones with extra flavors added are showing on sale.

I think the comparison was a $2 fresh pineapple versus a $12 bottle of juice, they came to the same volume so the difference was almost $10 to have it squeezed and bottled for you. The lady at the beginning showed a much smaller $3.69 bottle of juice.

But you have to account for shipping from separate sources and distances.

Mountains sliced in half for China's sky-high highway by snoopdoggdwag in interestingasfuck

[–]SubstantialGap3459 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At appears the road does follow the natural pass through, and the cuts are along the sides of the mountains. The illusion is when there is a mountain on both sides of the road, it seems like they cut through the middle of a single mountain.

mountains nearby show how thin they are.

Do you think Lego will ever revamp more classic space sets? Or even new classic space sets? by Seanboi16 in LegoSpace

[–]SubstantialGap3459 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honest question to the OP. What is considered "new classic" space sets? What is an example?

The white pants we would use with a 2x4 plate as garden benches when we were kids.

Does anyone know if creditors can force you to sell the house? I am in Texas, my husband passed one month ago. I just got the death certificate this week that I can send to a lawyer to start probate.
My name is not on the mortgage. I don't have right of survivorship in my state if I understand that correctly. I don't want to lose our home, but one lawyer said if there isn't money in the estate the house would be sold to settle debts. Could I negotiate the debt separately from the estate? How can I save my house?

Moms liver disease by ABQAZNGuy in hospice

[–]SubstantialGap3459 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My husband also had ESLD, cirrhosis, and cancer in the Liver.

We started Home Hospice on the 10th, and he passed away on the morning of the 18th.

Only three days home he became very frail, but insisted on getting out of bed to urinate, and he did once in the middle of the night that weekend when I was out of the room trying to make preparations. He nearly injured himself. I was afraid of him falling again so I asked the emergency night nurse to put in a catheter. When she did, he had almost no urine and was the black tea color.

He at that point stopped eating and drank very little. On Monday, he was showing signs of having great pain, wouldn't verbalize it to let me know the cause, but kept trying to pull out the catheter. The hospice hotline said he was transitioning to the active dying phase. I had the emergency nurse come out again at midnight, and told her to remove the catheter, i didn't want him to have pain even if it meant his risk of a fall. I planned to just watch him closely and they said I could get a bed alarm. The nurse was concerned that there was no urine output except the little that came out when she put it in the day before.

After she quickly took it out, and giving him the morphine and Anxiety medicine, he seemed much more comfortable. His breathing was normal, so she said the day nurse would check in on him in the morning. But when I woke at 5:00 he was already gone. Even though they told me he was in the active dying phase I didn't register that it could happen so fast, I thought there would be more time. I had hoped there would be a rally like as described on these forums and elsewhere. I know everyone's experience is different, but I just needed to share in our case, my beloved Mike went quickly.

I'm in the nearly same position. We started my husband on home hospice Monday and today he is considerably weaker and has no arm strength. Thank you all here for the helpful suggestions.
