ACK - basement reno!!!

The demolition of our basement started today. The premise is that there is probably mould and almost definitely animals (mice) that we need to get rid of. However, we're also moving a few things around and so on... I'm sure it will be great when it's all finished. However...

- the entire basement is off-limits for the kids
- no visitors or entertaining for the duration (both good and bad)
- the front room of our house contains much of what was in the basement, and so is also off-limits
- we have lost our downstairs bathroom
- my "home office" is now in the upstairs living room
- I don't do well in chaos

My biggest fear? Of course that we all get horribly sick and wish we had the second toilet. Argh. And, of course, Kid#1 tells us today about a kid who puked in class. Hooray.

My anxiety is through the roof. At least that's still there! for now....
