Moving right along!

I'm more than halfway finished with the first draft of my WIP! It's coming along great, and I can't wait to finish it and start submitting. (After edits and critique's of course.) I've gotten some GREAT feedback on it already though, and am actively working on it almost every night. Once the kids are in bed, and hubby is doing homework.:)
That is my designated time to write.
I never write when the kids are awake, because there is no possible way I'd get anything done. My 6 month old needs me, my oldest needs rides to and from Kindergarten, and time with mommy, and my preschooler just wants to play princesses with me all day. So, night time is my time. Except on Friday's.
Friday's are my hubby's and my date night. We each take turns every other week and pick something for us to do. Either watch a movie, play a game, or just sit and talk. Usually our date night is spent at home, since the kids are in bed, but it's so nice to just spend time together. It keeps our relationship strong, and we have fun just talking and laughing about stupid things. Even if I'm itching to write, I still turn off the computer. Even if my fingers are craving the keyboard...
One thing I know, is that writing is lonely, but I still love it. My hubby is so supportive, and knows I love it. I just love him. Even if he isn't a huge fan of reading. **shudder**
How do you find time to write? Any secrets I should know about? :)
