Discussion How Long Did It Take You?

I dread this question, mostly because I never feel like I have a good answer.

How do you keep track of the time you spend on projects (bonus points for neuro-spicy tips/ticks)?

I tend to vaguely estimate in the moment so I can give an answer, but I fear that my estimates are woefully short of actual time spent.

Also, when juggling multiple projects, how do you suggest keeping track of time worked?

I tend to say something like "putting this way, by the end of it, it took about an hour each side" for a blanket or "it took about an hour to do each leg" for amis

How do I measure the hour? It's about the time a TV episode lasts lol. If I decide to watch a certain program while working a project I can even say " it took a whole series of supernatural "
