Today??? Why TODAY?

So, we've been living next to this massive hole in the ground - apparently the bank foreclosed on a project a few years back - and someone recently bought it. Today, of all days, is the day they break ground - officially ending all peace and quiet in our amazing neighborhood. This will affect all songwriting/recording sessions from this point until they're done... next year?? :(
