When do you find time to work on your family history?

When do you tend to be able to carve out the most time to work on your research?
Spring, Summer, Winter, Fall?
Weekdays or weekends?
Days or evenings?

Is it a challenge to make the time, or are you one who has a scheduled time that you're committed to?

Research has taken a backseat in the past few years. However, I do get some time in the evening after my son has gone to bed. And I have been trying to incorporate some family history into family activities, such as cemetery walking. Last summer my husband and took my son and step son on a trip to Crawford County, Indiana where we walked to cemeteries. We played "who can find the oldest tombstone game"! They were both really impressed with some of the stone carvings and the fact that they were related to half of the cemetery! Make it fun and the kids will follow.

I don't have much time for genealogy, except for winter time, right after football. That's when I sign up for ancestry and another site and hit it hard for about 2 months.
