I work 08:00 until 17:00 (5PM), and then I relax a bit, eat, wash the dishes.
Most days I'm done doing these things at 7-8PM, that doesn't leave much time to do stuff. (of course I can use my weekends more wisely too).

I have this same schedule for my day job Monday through Friday. I know how it feels not to have a lot of time left over. I found that reading before bed helps, even if it's a book that you have always wanted to read, but never allowed yourself to because you felt it wasn't "important" enough. It just makes you "feel" better and starts getting you on the track as how you want to spend your time. Any small project that doesn't take a lot of set up is good for after work on the weekends you will find lots of new things to do because you will have the time now. Just think, if Saturday you have 12 hours free to do anything you wish, what would it be? Do that! Go to the book store, take your dog for a walk, cook a nice meal for a friend, work on your movie script, write three pages of your short story, meditate for an hour, etc. Make a list of what you want to do and then do it. If you want to watch TV and get on the computer, do it, but give yourself a set amount of time for those things, so they don't suck you in, or if you have to, cut them out completely. Have FUN!!!
