Start the weekend looking forward to making good progress on home projects, only to find something unrelated which stops you doing a project, by the time that's resolved you have lost the will to spend more time at the computer..... How do you get past it?

Experiencing the same thing! I usually open a bear, sit back, look at my code and say: "Today is not the day". Then I search for a good movie and waste my time watching it!

@Michel *beer ofcourse. I am not Russian.

The weekend is the worst time to work on personal projects IMO. You'd think getting around 10 hours of work should be easy but between commitments to family and friends and personal errands there's never time for anything.

I feel I can usually get an hour or two of coding done after work. It adds up QUICK

I usually get past it by imagining what it would be like to have/use the project's result. That can give a surge of inspiration
