Learning scikit-learn while relatives invade your workspace (Day 9)

So here's the thing - relatives decided my house is the perfect vacation spot right when I'm trying to get into machine learning. Classic timing, right?
Had this random thought today: "if you have time to be upset, you have time to work." Sounds way too motivational-speaker-ish when I write it out, but honestly? It kinda worked.
Spent the day figuring out scikit-learn basics. Nothing fancy - just understanding how the pieces fit together. Tomorrow's plan is either house price prediction (because why not join the club) or work through some practical examples.
The funny part about learning ML is how everything seems impossible until it suddenly clicks. Then you realize you've been overthinking the simple stuff while the actually complex parts are still waiting to humble you.
Anyway, back to pretending I have a quiet workspace while answering "what are you doing?" every 20 minutes.
What's your go-to strategy for staying focused when your environment decides to chaos-mode on you?
