I just tried this on my UV-5R and it works as described.

Turns out a decent yawn defeats facial recognition

The cats will win
I’m the game of will between you trying to sleep in and the hungry cats trying to get fed, the cats will win every time.

There is always one more object in the air
This is why I tell my partners that the passing isn’t done until we say it is done. Usually we announce “clubs down” and if that is not said keep going even if you are just tossing one object back and forth.

Looking back
As I reflect back on years past, I realize sobriety was a mistake.

Trying to become an early bird again
Once upon an eon ago, I began my days at 4am. Was at the gym at 5am and worked out until 7am then went to work. I also did 20 minutes of stretching before going to bed. It was the healthiest I’ve ever felt.
I’m trying to adjust my schedule for rising early again. I awoke at 4:30 this morning just wide awake and ready to begin the day. By 4:32 I was sound asleep under than nice heated blanket. Perhaps this lifestyle change should wait until the summer.

Meditation
I struggled with meditation for what seemed like 15 or 20 years. Jason Jarrett introduced me to Buddhist chanting and meditation came together for me becoming an important part of my life. Today I learned of Isha Kriya. I do not see this replacing my chanting but I’m intrigued enough to try it for at least 48 days.

Welcome 2024!
Thought I’d hit the ground running today. Boy was I wrong. Figured I’d work 4 to 6 hours, then do some plumbing, then plan out all of 2024 giving each month a theme and a goal. Instead I slept in, chillaxed, did 2.5 hours of accounting, took a nap, cleaned a little, and cooked. About that exercise, juggling, and all the other things… maybe tomorrow.

Happy New Year!
Me. 11:59pm December 31, 2023: “I’m going to wake up at 4am to meditate, exercise, and begin the year awesomely.”
Me, 10:59am January 1, 2024: “Do I really need to get out of bed?”

How’s the last day of 2023?
Well, I woke up this morning realizing I don’t have trash service anymore. They took the 96-gallon can and didn’t even leave a note.
From a marketing perspective, you’d think they’d drop a letter in the mail saying “if you want to continue service please update your credit card” or something like that. I guess now we just pile the garage up on the pews until Thanksgiving.
