Biologically, my typical morning is like waking the laptop to find it's at 1% battery and plugging it in to try and recharge, while a bunch of deferred windows updates come in.

By evening, everything has finally stabilised.

Yeah I'm the same, I find I start being really productive in the afternoon / evening.

Unfortunately having kids is incompatible with this, so it's been flipped and I just struggle through the morning.
