Will the wife kill me for glassing in the house?

Work on my Artic Tern 14 is progressing nicely and I am hoping to glass the hull this weekend. When mentioning this to some people, I have received incredrulous looks implying that would be gassing out my wife and poor dogs. I have the ability to transfer shop to a seperate garage, but I worry with 40 - 50 degree temperatures, that curing will be an issue. So I would prefer to do in my heated basement.

SOOO, how bad will it be? I have used small amounts working up to this point (3 or 4 ounces), but will mixing a large batch force me to sleep on the couch? (Or maybe next my new boat...hey, that wouldn't be that bad!).

Just wondering.
