The volume is low. I have tried everything I know to boost it, sorry. I want to do one or more a day of these, and try to tighten them up to be shorter. Thanks for all the suggestions. I learn for what you tell me. By the way the cat came in right after I started recording again, Ron says I woke him and he was sleeping under the car. Best wishes and hugs. Scottie

Hi Suze. What comes across on the videos but not my writing is my sense of humor. I really like to joke around. Bath the cat is a necessity unfortunately. He gets poop all over his butt and One of our cats is very large, as in heavy, as in fat. He is so lazy and fat he lays down to eat and to pee or poop. He is so lazy that he won’t even cover his own pee or poop. In fact he will occasionally just poop in his chair where he is laying down all the time. Plus he is so big he fills the box when he lays down so he always does his duty right at the wall of the box. He also thinks his poop is claiming any places, so he will try to poop in all three boxes but while moving from the boxes which are placed next to each other he will keep the poop coming so it means he poops on the box walls and the small floor space between them. We try to bank the litter in the three boxes so that when he pees the liquid runs to the box wall and away from his back feet. But because the other cat used the boxes and he buries his stuff like a normal cat or for some other reason the fat cat gets his back feet in the wet pee litter which clumps up in his paws. Between the poop on his butt he gets on the floor and on any surface he sits on, and wet litter packed in to his feet which could lead to serious health problems / infections, so we have to wash him. And boy is that a struggle. Hugs. Scottie

Hi Suze. I wanted to update you on the cortisol level check. The doctor did agree to have the test added but the next appointment I could get is in March 2025, and he likes the tests done about a week or so before. I did ask the nurse to ask him if I could do the labs now and he would then authorize another set for me to do before the appointment. They said someone would contact me. I am still waiting. This is important for me to do, I understand that. So if I don’t hear by Thursday, I will call the office again. Thank you Suze for telling me this. I don’t know if I mentioned it on the blog but a couple nights ago Ron had to gently wake me as I was crying out for help. I was struggling in my sleep to yell Help, Help, Help. I admit at night the intrusive thoughts are worse than in the day times now. So nights I can not sleep and I have to get up at 1 or 2 am. I can not describe my nightmares, my dreams here as I worry about hurting my wonderful viewers.
Things like being given a choice of what painful implement to be used on me not know the time of use already assigned to each of them. A losing choice no matter which I selected. Or being offered other punishments to choose from with me not knowing the deck was stacked against me. For example one of the choices I had as a little boy was to either give a sexy dance for my two hell spawn female sibling’s boyfriends or take a spanking from each of them. What was not told me they already agreed that If I took the sexy dance both boyfriends get to rape me, and if I choose the spanking I have to give them oral … I would be made to give them blow jobs as I cried with tears running down my face. That was my life. What I did not understand at 4 to 10 was no matter what I chose it was already designed to cause me as much pain and anxiety as possible.
I admit I have a problem that needs to be addressed. I am really trying. But the universe doesn’t seem to be cooperating with me right now. And I worry about how much to put on video as that might make it harder for my wonderful followers. Again thank you. Hugs. Scottie

Heh-I’m going to borrow your “I rented this tongue” next time I’m in front of a mic!
This was delightful.

Hi Ali. I do have a grand humor that comes across on video, but not written stuff. I don’t have editing software I once had. Ron has told me to take the funds when our next cash infusion comes, so I do stuff more like I once did. But I have to know before I $200 dollars on hardware and software, maybe more, that my videos are going to be watched. But I love them. I used to do a lot of videos. I think I may go back to doing three or four and let you and Randy handle the written stuff. You’re doing great by the way. Hugs. Scottie

((blush)) Thank you. I’ve slacked off a little yesterday and today; it’s been busy here, but I’ll get it picked back up. I’m so thankful for the scheduling ability! Anyway, however you want it, just let me know. You do seem to be enjoying yourself on the videos!

Are you sure your camera is not at an angle? If it’s not, tilt it so you and your chair appear upright 😁🤣
You are a natural in front of the camera. Your delivery is great, especially for those of use who have auditory processing difficulties. You are an example many others should follow.

Hello Barry. Those are some of the best complements I have ever had and makes me want to do even more videos. I use to four or more a day on any topic I had an issue with. If you want to see older videos of me with my beard just to see how my looks changed over the years here is the link. https://www.youtube.com/@Scottiestoybox I don’t post here anymore as I lost the blog I used for these. I do love to be in front of the camera and speak my thoughts. I hope to get better at my new videos.
As to the level of my camera. You are correct. It is something I had not to check. Thank you for pointing it out. Living with a man who has done construction and home repair all his life along with other more exciting careers, he has lots of levels around from 3 inches up. I used a couple of the smaller ones on the video monitor and it was way off, tilting hard from the way I look at it. So I used the smallest on the camera and used tooth picks to level up the cameras I use. I will check it in my next video. I hope it will help. If not keep telling me please. I want these to be as best as possible for the viewers. I plan to get new software, new microphones, and do my best to give everyone my best thoughts. Best wishes. Scottie
