dry wall dust

i am so tried of dry wall dust and sanding, i am tired of the little coat of white on everything in our basement, i am tried of wearing a mask and feeling like i can't breathe when i try to help.
i however am not tried of...the amazing job my husband is doing at finishing our basement. he has worked so hard and many evenings so i can have my own craftroom/office. we will have a family room, playroom, office for hubby, craftroom for me and a bathroom. i am thankful for hubby's good friend who has helped and made the job get done faster and easier. i have a great hubby and appreciate all he has done even though sometimes i complain about the dust.
