Will "Cleans" His Office

We are having a BBQ tomorrow for a friend in town from Germany, where she and her husband live. She used to live here and so we are hosting the ol' gang, if you will. The weather is going to be kinda terrible tomorrow, so the gang and their kids will be in the house. This requires that Will's office be cleaned up, as it will be a major thoroughfare from the dining room (where I will no doubt display my lovely pound cake that I made just for the occasion) to the kitchen, where the drinks will be.

Will was making excellent progress on this task, until our neighbor popped by with her seedling plants that we are to watch/water while she is out of town for a week. Her seedlings are doing much better than ours: bigger, taller, stronger. She claims it because she sits them on a counter underneath a florescent light.

This jealousy all but consumed Will and he instantly forgot about cleaning his office and instead set about remedying the situation...


...buy running down to the hardware to get all the necessary supplies to make his own grow light.

Granted, I have been saying for a few years now that we should get a grow light, since we seem to do really well at germinating the seeds, but not so well as transplanting strong, tall, big seedlings to the garden. I do have to complain about it. Why?

This is where Will placed the grow light here:

Yeah, underneath the table in his office. *Sigh*

And no, the office still isn't clean...but our vegetables might have grown 0.01 cm overnight.
