Distraction Vs Focus

There are some things that really try to distract me while training. It seems like every time I am ready to train, there's some moron right around the house cranking up a leafblower or a lawnmower. It sounds like the noise Jim Carrey makes in Dumb and Dumber. Drives me nuts. I'm not zen'd up enough to 'just ignore it' and most times I just stop in frustration and go inside to wait. I tried using headphones once, but I didn't think it was safe due to the fact that someone could come up from behind and I wouldn't hear them.
It's never a good idea to train when irritated or mad, but it seems like there's a conspiracy in my hood to interrupt my training. I know that I'm supposed to block everything out and focus on what I'm doing, but that noise drives me nuts! I try to get up early to train, but it's getting too cold to do that. I just thought I'd vent for a moment and get that off of my chest.
Salute!
