How to make the most of observing opportunities?

When I was young, I had what seemed an endless amount of time and energy for observing sessions. Returning to things 30 years later, I find that somehow I've come to enjoy sleep!

I'm curious what some of you do to make the most of opportunities for short observing sessions. A couple of weeks ago when I decided to drag out the dob and have a peek at Jupiter because I was awake at 5am and it was clear, I lost a lot of time tip-toeing around the house getting everything together.

What do you do to have everything ready to go at a moment's notice? I'm thinking more along the lines of organisation rather than a scope shed or "scope on casters in the garage" - mainly because I don't have a garage or space for a shed.

Cheers,

Jeff
