    Holy crap! Don't you have a side yard or something? Run it through the neighbor's yard, maybe? I know it isn't cheap, but I'd suggest buying plastic carpet runner to cover the path from front door to back, then top that with cheap, thick indoor/outdoor carpet to protect the cherry wood. That's beautiful wood, and just hard enough to make it a bitch to restore if you mar it. As for quashing her tendency to spawn "good" ideas, you could try scoffing and mockery, but that could lead to unintended consequences. Perhaps the best you can do is to keep her from telling you about them, traditionally achieved by putting something in her mouth every time she's about to spout another one. Good luck with that... ;)

    That's pretty much what I had in mind. I've got a sheet of DPC "left over", and all the old carpet from upstairs, but I still hate the idea of ferrying basic materials through a finished room. Scoffing and mockery? I'm too old to die young! (And I don't really fancy any kind of dental amputation.)

      Damn! I should have thought of that one. I'll order all that can be ordered (and cancel all subscriptions to ideal-home-type magazines)..

        Yeah, but then I'd have to iron my own shirts.
