Welcome to the forum. Congratulations on close to 6 years sobriety. I’d choose a night of chocolate over a night out anytime

Spending time with your grandson and stuffing your faces with some chocolate sounds like the perfect sober day.

Not too bad, like many I have bad anxiety and depression so mornings often tricky when cortisol levels are higher. Hopefully wears off with distraction

Staying connected here helps. Journaling your gratitude can also help.

Helps me to focus on doing my 3 morning things here.

Gratitude thread.
I have to focus on what to write and think about what I am grateful for. By the time I am done with those 3 things, the anxiety is eased and my mind is calm and ready to take on the day. It’s a real struggle some days but I know the end result is worth it.
Hopefully a morning routine can help distract you in a similar way.
