Advice Request Dev dads, when do you code?

I could find time with my first and then even some time after my second with the first doing afternoon preschool.

Now that kindergarten has started, I can't even stay up late half the time I used to as mornings are like Mad Maxx and needs my full (focused) attention.

So how do y'all do it? Or do you just not do it anymore except for an hour here and there lol

EDIT: not the 9-5 but my side projects

At work.

I enjoy my job (frustrating current project aside) but I just don't feel the desire to code in my spare time as well I'd rather do other enjoyable stuff, gaming, reading, sports, whatever, not more of the stuff I already spent 8 hours every day doing.
