Harry Potter Book
I've never read them, not my cup of tea, but my daughter has been reading them right along. She went to Harry Potter Night at our local bookstore the night before the book came out. She had a great time and got to get the book just afternoon midnight. I read today over 8.2 million copies of the book were sold in 24 hours.

Just finished Harry Potter - no spoilers
I would never ruin it for anyone. Just wanted to say - What a ride! It was an excellent book! Sorry it's all over.
Agree with all yours and add Harry Potter movies...nm

I finished Harry Potter! Never fear - no spoiler.
Wow - what a great book & series. Brilliant! As Ron would say.
It sounds like you probably would like to see the Harry Potter books burned too
People like you are why I have a problem with religous nut cases. The last time I knew God = love. God loves all his children no matter what. You are just filled with judgement and self-righteousness. I believe that if someone is being physically abused of course remove them. If they are living the ways their religion believes and it is not hurting anyone leave them alone. So what if they wear funny clothes and their hair looks funny to outsiders. What gives one religion the right to dictate how another lives. Yes I know polygamy is illegal, children marrying and having sex with adults is disgusting in my opinion, but we should try and understand each other. I heard a quote one time that said "Don't tell me how I should or should not live and I won't tell you how you should or should not live". We are not The Creator and we should not be judging people. Let the courts handle it when they've got something legitimate and solid to work with.

my boyfriend Jack broke up with me when I was 17. He just walked into where I was working and introduced me to Barb. He broke my heart. He is now an ophthalmologist in Florida.
Harry F. Truman and Jimmy Carter were both Southern Baptists...sm

The wood will last longer if you
use containers inside of it. If you want to disguise the containers you can put something like spagnum moss over the dirt and let it cover the edges of the container(s).
Sounds like it is going to be neat. What kind of plants? Climbing vine?
Always better on the wood stove...
My grandfather had a room in the back of the house that was heated by wood stove (they got central heat when I was a kid, but he closed off the vents and heated that room with a wood stove because he liked it better). Sometimes my grandmother would cook in there just because it tasted better.

That really was the good ole' days......
Wood stove
My ex-inlaws still use one.
Any one out there using a wood burning - sm
stove for heat? Preferably a Glacier Bay stove but if not please feel free to chime in. We just bought an old Glacier Bay wood stove so we can supplement our propane heat next winter as the cost of propane is a bit higher this year and he hears they plan to start taxing it to death soon, so we figured this is a good way to cut costs, etc. This particular stove has 2 decorative embossed doors on the front with a winter cottage scene, house in snow/pine trees, really very nice. Apparently originally they were highlighted wtih a bronze or silver finish, according to the sales brochure the previous (or original) owner had. Really very nice looking. They were a rusty gray which my DH refinished yesterday and painted black with the stove paint they gave us. The previous owner refinished everything but the doors. They are solid steel. So my question is does anyone have any idea how we could refinish the doors to their original glory? Or where we may take them to get them restored? It looks great now but obviously would look fantastic if we could re-highlight the higher raised parts of the scene. If I can figure out how to post picture I may do that later today.
Bamboo? Not really a wood, rather a grass
I pulled out all my carpet (have a very hairy cat who sheds constantly) and put in 1400 s.f. of bamboo bought from Lumber Liquidators. It's not really wood, though it looks just like wood, it's really a grass made into wood-looking flooring. Easy to take care of too. My cat throws up too but now on the floor (and not the rugs that I now have in several places. *S*
Once I did this, I could now *see* the dirt that I couldn't really *see* in carpeting and one gets to see what y'all have been breathing in (with carpeting) for decades no matter HOW much one vacuums. I must say we are all BREATHING better since I got rid of the wall-to-wall carpeting!
Best of luck in whatever you choose to do. *S*
If you don't already have a wood scratching post - sm
get one, you say you have some cat things, but is it just plaing wood, not one of those carpeted ones. I got ours at PetsMart, it is a special wood post with holes in it to "attract" the cat. We got ours when she was a kitten and has always uses just that. There is the stray try on the bedpost or dresser, but luckily I have always seen these attempts and just yell at her and she stops; so far no harm has been done as I have always caught her before she dug in. The only other thing she likes to claw at is an exercise mat (one of those that go under a piece of equiment), we have it over the brick pad in our kitchen (for a wood stove that we do not have) so the kids would not fall and hurt themselves. The cat loves to claw on that, I generally let her though cleaning up the little black pieces is a drag, though the vacuum gets them up quite nicely. But she leaves the furniture alone except to lie on it and sleep all day! My daughter wants to get another cat, I don't, can't believe we would get another that would be so good. I guess you could just keep a really good eye on them and if they start to scratch, maybe use a spray bottle on them to deter them, or a sharp no (that is what I do when I catch her in her rare lapses). I hope you find a solution.
If you do it yourself, practice on some scrap wood a few

My last MIL cooked everything on wood stove
and things were delicious. She never had electric nor gas and probably would have never wanted one. How she did it, I will never know. She cooked everything from collard greens to breads such as biscuits and cornbread. Yum, yum.
We have wood laminate and LOVE it easy to
throughout our main floor other than the bedrooms and it is very easy to care for (we have 1 dog and 4 small kids). We also have Frieze carpet in our downstairs it is light beige, but has flecks of darker colors in there and our dog (and kids) have thrown up on it many times and you can't tell. I do however have a Bissel shampooer that I use whenever something happens to the carpet, but it seems to wear really well.
Maybe you could get wood, Pergo style or tile?
Of course if your carpet is in good condition, that could really hurt the pocketbook.
We have Pergo (Wilson Art brand, actually), and it works well for the dogs, although it is a little slippery and cold. (My dogs like cold though, and our carpeting was trashed). Real wood would be warmer. You'd need to keep nails cut and discourage running in the house to keep it looking really nice though.
Question re wood laminate flooring
We have wood laminate flooring in our study, which we love. However, we are going to put a room-sized rug in there because my beloved dog, Fox, a 10-year-old Pomeranian, not only has problems with patellar luxation (with four surgeries on his back legs in his first 3-4 years) but now has chronic dislocation of his right shoulder. So you can imagine how much trouble he has trying to stand up on the slippery wood laminate floor. We have tried putting down runners all the way across the floor, plus he has a bed and a blanket down there, too. But it is much cooler lying on the floor, so that's where he stays. He is in here with me all day as I work, but every time I get up, he gets up, scrambling like crazy to get his balance and get his legs firmly under him.
So....to my question. This is a fairly nice rug we are buying, but it says it has a polypropylene backing. Should I get some kind of pad to go between the rug and the laminate floor? I have included a link below, I don't know if that will give you any more information. But I don't want to damage the laminate - the backing on one of the original runners I bought (cheap, from Wal-Mart) stuck to the floor. It didn't damage it, but it was a very small area and I found it fairly quickly. This rug is going to be on the floor long-term.
Thanks in advance for any info! 
Love the Wood Wick candles...sm
sounds like a crackling fire...and they are strongly scented - excellent quality. I also like the Swan Creek Candles. They are highly scented and have some delicious scents. My favorite is Buttercream Vanilla and they have crumbs on top of the candle that melts...wondeful...
Never heard of Circle E candles but try Swan Creek if you see them!
Actually, was thinkin with aggressive scratching wood ones
