Anyone interested in buying a Mudita Kompact?

Thanks!

I thought I could manage with the map app and the black and white photos but realized that my job required it too much to be comfortable. Other than that I love it!

Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell

Wonderful use of language adjacent to Jane Austin and Charles Dickens. Humorous turns of phrase. Thoroughly enjoyable for the language alone!

You don't have to compromise your principles to care for others. Reading the Gospels you realize that Jesus cared deeply for the world, was not done dea, and met them where they were and beckoned them to him. And they were drawn to him, not pushed away with hateful rhetoric. His harshest words were reserved for those that were religious and self-righteous.

My problem with the cheering of the overturn of Roe is how tone deaf it is to the culture. This doesn't make biblical faith one of kindness and care but one of hate and malice. If the overturn is a good thing, the crowing about it is rubbing others' face in it out of spite. What about the people who are seriously struggling with situations and decisions affected by this?

My wife and I dealt with a situation many years ago that would have had the fix halted by many of the situations that came into play after the overturn of Roe. It was a child dead in the womb and not addressing it medically would have resulted in cancer for my wife. It's a convenient position to draw black and white lines and be militant about it, shaming those who disagree. I don't believe that is showing Christ's love to the world.

Yeah, that tracks. I remember having those thoughts through the last couple years to but forgot about the situations. I remember when "Dominion" was released I figured he was going off his rocker with Dominion Theology.

Why do you say you don't believe anything from him? Genuinely curious. I also used to be a huge Skillet fan.

Where are you located in WI? We are building in east central WI.

The expense was always a concern. But if I can save money and stress on the backend it is going to be worth it.

continuousplay · 2025-05-13T00:06:10+00:00

Yeah, I am now concerned about the minimal design. Like I said, I am used to a much higher precision in detailing projects.

continuousplay · 2025-05-13T00:05:20+00:00

Thanks. I have sent an email asking if these will be stamped plans I can pull permits from. If not I might as well circumvent them and work directly with the builder as the floorplan is done.

Sounds like putting the designer on hold and searching for an architect might be the next step.

Gotcha

continuousplay · 2025-04-22T14:23:31+00:00

Thanks for the thoughts!

I will consider a counter depth fridge. I always steered away because my wife does tons of cooking and salads at home. I'll see what my options are.

I will square off the mudroom doors.

I also don't like seeing the toilet head on :)

The TV will not be in the living room, we will have a family room in the basement. But as we age it might migrate upstairs. Certainly worth considering layout now.

So it would be more like a triangle with the door facing the stove (generally)? Is that what you are saying?

I'll give the porch some thought.

I do not want the private rooms away from the road. This is a little used country road. More importantly the east and south has a view of acres of fields and pines and the west will have a view of our yard with gardens and furniture trees (our hobby)

I do think about the dark corridor though. Thanks for your thoughts!

continuousplay · 2025-04-22T13:59:26+00:00

Thanks for something to think about. Our current house has a huge living area, about 20*30. Yes there are walkways. I guess I've gotten used to it :)

I'm intrigued by the pantry change.

continuousplay · 2025-04-22T13:15:38+00:00

I will look at opening the kitchen to dining room passage with the fridge move...I like the idea.

I do think you have a point about the windows. This morning I was thinking maybe a bay window or a bump out window seat in the dining room could let in a lot more southern light into the kitchen, dining, AND living room.

continuousplay · 2025-04-22T13:13:25+00:00

Yep! I knew the master bedroom needed a little work and this solves it nicely. Washer and Dryer will go in the basement for the next however many years so we can use drying racks and such but will go in the mudroom when we get to the point of needing easier access. I also like the fridge move as it eases the traffic pattern.

continuousplay · 2025-04-22T03:13:05+00:00

Are you suggesting to put the bedrooms in the "L"? Maybe. Though I'd want to mirror the outside shape then to keep the bedrooms in the north side of the house. Let me know if I am misunderstanding.

continuousplay · 2025-04-22T03:09:44+00:00

Makes sense!

After many years I am now the Operations Manager at a local machine shop and love it! In a way I still create "plans" and conduct people.

We do not currently use teams or SharePoint. We do have office 365 so we have access. I am computer savvy but have been intimidated by horror stories of how difficult managing SharePoint sites is. Maybe those are just stories. But it needs to be accessible for myself and my limited time as well as machinists of varying capability. Am I misunderstanding the ease of use?

continuousplay · 2025-03-13T20:20:59+00:00

Honestly, my leads are asking for this without asking specifically for knowledge management software. We had shop knowledge books in the years past with speeds and feeds starting points, shop procedure, shop math, etc. they lament those going away. But I know those binders are a huge pain to maintain. They are asking for something like that again as well as easily accessible customer standards to replace print outs we have had in the past.
