Get in Someone's Hair

(bother someone)

Children! Would you please stop making so much noise! And for heaven's sake, pick up your clothes and toys! It's hard enough trying to keep this house clean without your throwing your things all over the place!

Clara, I know that the children get in your hair, but you should try not to let it upset you so much.

Listen, Jim. I can't help it. The children bother me and make me very angry when they're so noisy and messy.

 

hard enough ~ ing = ~ するだけで大変である
