Do you quilt/sew daytime, evening or night time?

I try to sneak down to my sewing room in the basement for an hour a day, usually in the afternoon or evening. I always have several projects at various stages going on at once. Right now I have one I am cutting, one on the frame to machine quilt and another I am hand quilting (which I can do while I watch TV with the family). If the kids don't have sports on Saturday or Sunday, I will spend about half the day sewing!

I end up getting sewing time after dinner and usually after my kids are in bed. By then, I have picked up the house (as much as I feel like after a busy day at work), cleaned up from dinner, and have spent time with the kids. I always feel too guilty heading back to my sewing room when I haven't finished all the tasks around the house I need to. I also have kids in Taekwondo, which takes up about two hours an evening. So, I quilt for about an hour or two.

I work during the day, I try to cut or piece in the evening or quilt if I have one ready. I usually always sew on the weekends while I'm doing laundry, cleaning, etc. I only get a couple of hours in the evenings as I share my sewing room with 4 cats and they want to go to bed at 8PM and will just stay in there until I get the hint and leave.
I am retiring in June and will get more time to quilt when I want. DH is still working and does not plan to retire. I usually cook pot dishes on Sundays and we eat leftovers in the evenings, or maybe nothing.
