How often do you sit down at your reloading bench?

With my work schedule right now and being on the road all the time, the nights I'm home for just the night I don't load anything, spend that precious 10-12 hours with the family. I load on my 10 day break I take off work every 2-3 months.
That’s me right now. I’m at the bench once a week if I’m lucky.
 
when I am doing a lot of centerfire 3 -5 days a week I am piddling with something to do with reloading. Be it brass prep or stuffing bullets. Lately though I am all ate up with rimfire and it's probably been 3 or 4 months since I have reloaded anything

This is me right now also. I'm in my reloading building about 3 times a week for now. I take it in spurts.
 
I'm at mine almost everyday, I just love it. I'll do something, inspect brass, clean primer pockets, clean brass (not often), reload, re-turn brass, something. I'm semi retired so that helps. If you have a big flood event I may be in your town! No more roofs or general inspections.
 
I build by benches at countertop height to work comfortably from a standing position, so I never set. I’m usually at the bench at least two or three times a week even if I’m just piddling with something.
 
I was browsing through my loading records and noticed that I only acutally load about once every ten days. It didn't seem like I spent much time at all at my bench until I realized how much time is spent prepping vs. loading. With the extended brass prep that I do, not counting tumbling, I'm probably at my bench twice a week. I only load small batches and I am past working up loads until I purchase a new rifle/caliber.

Everyday.
