He worked in the shoe shops in Lawrence and Haverhill most of his adult life , I think as a cutter . He played the piano fairly well , did card tricks that were just good enough to fool credulous kids , had come to America from Nova Scotia as a teenager looking for work ( this would have been around WW I ) , got married to a second - generation Canuck girl and raised seven kids . And he was a union man .

A: Was the man good at card tricks ?

Mom and Bob are helping me pay the bills that that money was slated for , but still ... After work Sunday , I was such a wreck that I went over to John 's to hide from the world . I needed to go someplace where people were n't telling me how to fix it , were n't asking for a post - mortem , were n't forcing me to deal with it any more at that point in time . He said the only thing he might force me to do is eat .

A: What has lead the speaker to become fed up with people telling them how to fix the problem they have ?

I somehow managed to start laundry , clean up the kitchen , play guitar hero , sort out my pills , clean the litter boxes . i really want to vacuum but i ' m so freakin hot . i think my thyroid is acting up .

A:
What may be the reason why they have extra time ?
