I agree that it is very difficult. I also work a very busy job and need to sleep at night.
The best thing I did was build an observatory so that I can have my scope running within 10 mins and pack up in less than 10 mins.
I don't know how the guys do all night runs unless it is Fri or Sat night and even then it drains you the next day.
I also changed my interest in astronomy. I decided that taking long exposures of common objects over many night with the result being a pretty pic to be admired fleetingly was not for me.
I decided to image variable stars (and now spectroscopy) and submit this info to the AAVSO. These targets require much shorter time per target and I found the results more fulfilling than the pretty pics. Sometimes both can be done though.
