Thanks, @energievie, for this week's @galladrabbles prompt! I hope you can find some relaxation and calm as the year unfolds.

Ian refreshed the page. “Motherfucker.”
In the past thirty seconds, someone had outbid him.
“Oh, it’s on now.” Ian upped his bid by five dollars.
Waited.
Refreshed.
“Goddammit.”
Ian cracked his knuckles. How was he so invested in Franny’s school charity auction? The vacation packages and food baskets were boring, but one listing consumed Ian’s attention: “Rent a handyman for a day.”
Ian hit F5 again.
One minute left. He added fifty dollars to his bid.
3…2…1…
Yes. Ian won the auction.
That black-haired, blue-eyed handyman would be his. Uh, for a day.
Ian smiled and started his to-do list.
