It was hard to concentrate on my writing with the constant clattering and irritating noises he was making
Today I had a lot of work to get done at home. The first thing I had to do was take the dogs out for a walk, so after my morning coffee, I put their harnesses on and left the house. It was a warm summer day without a single cloud in the sky, so it’s a good thing I got up early because later in the day it gets too hot to go out. I went to a nearby park and released them from their leash. I threw the ball at them to make sure they burned enough energy to keep them satisfied until the evening. I got back to my house and remembered that my partner had called the HVAC service company to get a technician in. We’ve been struggling with the hot weather because the air conditioner is out of order. I couldn’t recall at what time he was meant to come, so I just got on with my work. An hour later, the HVAC technician called at the door and I let him get on with his work. It was hard to concentrate on my writing with the constant clattering and irritating noises he was making. Also, I was feeling really hot, so I put a bag of ice under my shirt, which did provide some cooling. The HVAC technician was starting to really annoy me with his relentless inquisitiveness and he kept asking me questions all the time, making it very hard to focus. After two hours, I was glad when he finally got the air conditioner repaired and I was able to resume my work in peace.
