I no longer have an other half to annoy with my seed sowing/grow lights. So on the plus side, my grow lights are now in the living room and the propagator is moving from the cold kitchen to the south-facing spare room. Wheeeeeeeeee!!!!!
If only I was single and younger, much younger. Not that I want to be single mind. I am allowed to have seed sowing and growlights Better shut up now. Digging a hole for myself.
I never had a problem with my OH. I "gardened" indoors and he worked on his car and gadgets indoors.
Often, he'd be one side of the kitchen table and I'd be the other. To be fair, he didn't fill the bedroom windowsills with car parts - probably because they were already full of seedlings.
Thinking about it, my OH wouldn’t have minded. In fact he didn’t mind. I used to propagate plants on the dining room windowsill and I seem to recollect him encouraging it. One of his last acts was to help pull down the delapidated sheds that marched down the garden.
Said sill no longer exists so I now use the sills in my new kitchen much to my children’s horror. But they don’t live with me.

I do what I like as there is just me living here. It makes for a peaceful life, with no-one to nag abut what I've done or not done Oh! except the cat, she's always moaning about something she wants done LOL
I have a garage for my main hobby (2 guesses from the user name )
But now with the gardening and alotmentating, I need windowsills. There's only one in the house that is toddler-proof, and it's in SWMBO's sewing room...
Plenty of window sill space in my conservatory so no problem here.
It also gets the sun for a good part of the day.
If the weather gets really cold I take my plants into the kitchen.
I have a two tier trolley so I just load up the seedlings or plants and wheel them in ovetnightl
And when your back stops aching,
And your hands begin to harden.
You will find yourself a partner,
In the glory of the garden.
