Standing in the way of me accomplishing those things (necessary things like practicing Brahms, Schubert, Beethoven, Handel, Paganini, Sibelius, and Bach; necessary things like cleaning my whole house from top to bottom before in-laws arrive for the weekend) are:
String orchestra rehearsal (10:15-12:30)
Shostakovich class (1:00-3:45)
[Drive home. Hope for no traffic.]
Teach lessons (5:00-6:30)
Orchestra rehearsal (7:30-10:00)
So when I get home at 10:30 pm, I must accomplish everything in a whirlwind of productivity, then try to get a full night's sleep before tomorrow's 9:00-5:00 teaching marathon followed by an orchestra concert.
No problem.

This is when you realize that cleaning your house is NOT necessary, and in-laws coming to visit means you'll have extra hands to help. Put those visitors to work. :)
