I'm not a morning person either, and slumping to the kitchen table with a cup of tea is my idea of heaven. Just as an experiment you could leave your phone in another room. I remember I heard a podcast with the author Zadie Smith. She leaves her phone on the third floor of her house while she is working, or just reading, on the first floor because she knew if she picked it up, say to look up a word or something, there's a whole chunk of time gone. She could hear it and it had a special ring as I recall, for her kids school to call.

I've had many periods of my life with very demanding morning routines too...jobs, commutes, kids, etc. but at this later stage of life, I don't have any of those demands. And it's rather blissful. I don't have a schedule but I do have a rhythm, and a more relaxed routine, which I find is a comfort when it's kept loose. I wake sometime between 7 and 8 naturally. Have breakfast. Do some word games, maybe check some blogs. To sit and hear the birds with the light coming through the kitchen window, it's so delightful.
