Living in bathroom renovation hell!

Sometime towards the end of september my bathroom looked like this! (Notice the orange tiles, they were everywhere!)

The next day the toilet and bath were gone!

4 weeks later my bathroom looks like this!
The pink stuff is an underlay before the underfloor heating and tiles go down. There is no toilet, no sink, no bath, no shower!
On top of this we are trying to tidy the house up a bit (aka putting right all the kiddy damage!) so we are trying to paint walls, declutter, and sot out "my" fireplace.
Its now half term, the upstairs hallway is filled with tools, there are random bits of bathroom stuff stashed around the house (and to be honest I don't think the man of the house has factored storage into the bathroom plans!) I am exhausted, run down and don't remember the last time I sat down to watch tv in the evening.
And to top it all (yes I know I shouldn't start a sentence with "and") I have lost my knitting mojo!
I really would like a pair of fingerless mitts, I have the yarn, the pattern, the needles, but I don't want to look at it. I can't think about casting on.

I am hoping it is just related to the stress and exhaustion and sometime soon I will be once again soaking in a hot bath (in my own house!) thinking about yarn!
