Construction....ugh!

OK I do not mean to sound ungrateful. I am very excited to be in the process of creating a new kitchen, new bathrooms, new laundry room, new office, new floors....should I go on? But I am not sure I will be able to live through this! For 9 years we have lived here with a "to-do" list, and all of a sudden my husband is whizzing through the list. All at once I might add. Closets are being moved, walls being built, doors removed, floors disappear- from 7am to 4pm we are under attack! Luckily we have a wonderful GC who is trying his best to keep things sane, but this HUGE job is slowly traumatizing me as each day goes on. More and more of our home is becoming thrown in boxes and covered in dust! One good thing is that I am finding things I forgot I owned, and I am throwing out many unused items. But still...this is not easy on me. What will I do when we actually break down the kitchen and I cannot even cook meals? We might have to move out....how do people deal with this? This is one of those things that everyone pretends is not a big deal- but it totally is...Like having a baby, maybe??? We will keep you posted!!
