Yep. I had a day like that Friday, and then yesterday...so today I just plain decided this was a house and family day (which, truthfully OMG needed to happen). For me, to get around it takes viciously telling myself that I was not to judge, could not judge, during the actual writing. I did edits at a different time, on paper sometimes if I felt particularly despairing about the whole thing, until I just had to take it to the computer.
The other piece is that I had to schedule time rigorously and use a massive to-do when list because yeah, stuff has to get done. I'm seeing I'm going to need to do this for the summer...
...but man, I absolutely hate the first few days of that sort of rigor. Gotta do it...but oh man. Discipline.
IOW, hugs. You are not the only one. We're all in this together.
