Good morning everyone. It is now 5.14. I actually have a skin doctor appointment this morning.
I haven't gone to a skin doctor in years. But I'm 56 now and starting to see lots of age spots.
What they call skin tags and all that old people stuff. Which I am now.
So we're just going to get it looked at.
I saw I got that early this morning.
I don't really go to doctors that often.
Not going to get sick that often either.
Which has been pretty cool.
Never had COVID or anything like that.
I do work from home.
Being home based keeps you out of the population therefore you're not as a risk of getting cold and all kinds of stuff like
that so that's another bonus of being home-based is the not around a lot of
people which I'm not really good with people anyway I'm go people I just
rather not deal with it it's just
easier being on my own just kind of the way i've always been uh and now i can pretty much do it
uh and have things to do while i'm on my own so it's pretty cool all right so let's see what the
morning so i gotta go there early first thing then i do all my appointments early because i get up early therefore if i can
get appointment at eight o'clock like my skin doctor point is 8 15 so it's great get in get
out and then i go back to my day of doing fun stuff as i always do and i did my yesterday i
did my um life in a double shave uh episode. I do those every few months.
I shave my face.
And then I shave my head.
Just.
And then I sit and kind of.
Chat about stuff while I'm doing it.
I made a wider out view.
And I did a live stream.
It's only about a half hour.
To shave both my face and my head i do my face all the
time but i'm just not a hair guy i started shaving my head uh way back uh and like when i got sober
or something even before then so not having hair just makes life a lot easier for me
and what happens is if as it starts to grow, I still have a pretty good hairline.
I mean, I could easily have a full head of hair.
But I used to be really vanity when I was younger.
Hairspray and part in all certain ways and everything had to be perfect.
God, I don't miss those days
but shaving my hair now yeah it's so much easier and i'm getting old anyway it doesn't really
matter if i have hair or no hair who cares i'd rather shave it all off i even shave my hair
eyebrows now uh keep everything nice and clean because i get lots of uh when i just shaved
yesterday you'd see all the dandruff and everything uh even with like some sort of a head and shoulders or
anything you're still not going to get that off digging it all out with a with a razor that's
the way to get all off and then i go in the shower i use a tea tree shampoo and then i got out and i
feel like a million dollars so i did my life in a double shave
yesterday I do those update what's going on drones they was talking about and I was talking
about other fun stuff so now we'll go into the deep winter maybe like in March as we come out
of the winter I'll do another life in a double shave this is something I kind of added. Just to get a little bit more personal while I'm doing
something fun.
So,
let's see what's going on today.
Alright, let's fire it up here.
Alright.
Alright, so let's see football.
Patriots lost again.
Oh yeah, that's right.
They played just at 4 o'clock.
I wouldn't stand for that.
4 o'clock game.
I don't know.
I think that one year coach,
I don't know if they're going to...
Hopefully they stick with him,
but I don't know.
So let's look at the scores.
I'm not really following football.
I used to in the Brady days, but I was really into it then, but not anymore.
So Green Bay beat the Seahawks lost.
Green Bay won.
Patriots lost.
They're 3-11.
Same schedule as last year.
Arizona won.
Bucs beat up on the Chargers.
Chargers lost again.
Bummer.
I would have liked to see the Chargers do something.
Buffalo beat the Lions.
Interesting.
I didn't have that.
I had it the other way.
48-42.
Wow.
12-2 now.
Broncos beat up on the Colts.
The Broncos are 9-5.
They've come a long way.
Sean Payton has kind of really turned that team around finally.
Eagles beat the Steelers.
Ah, the Jets won, huh?
They won a game.
They beat the Jaguars, which is one of the worst teams.
I can't believe the coach is still there.
Commanders beat the Saints.
Bengals beat the Saints. Beat Bengals.
Beat the Titans.
Titans is the third worst team between the Patriots and the Jaguars.
Oh, good.
Miami lost.
Good.
The Dolphins lost.
So they're pretty much out of the playoffs now, too.
Texans beat them.
Chiefs beat the Browns.
And Cowboys
beat the Panthers.
And then the Ravens beat
the lonely
Giants or even worse, 2-12.
They're really bad.
Boy, the New York teams are just terrible.
That's pretty funny.
Alright, so
that takes care of my sports. It's about as much as i care about
football i did watch some of the chiefs browns games yesterday just as a background while i was
where are we yep just doing tons of order i just i worked all i do is just list stuff yesterday and
all day and all night i mean i get up until see if it paid
off or not oh i did actually i did so i said a couple things that i listed yesterday so
let's go to my rs feed
here very excited about my podcast i'd like just put myself out there letting it just go it's pretty
fun let's see so now i'm just looking at the analysis uh just two all time about 122 downloads
pretty fun yesterday i did nintendo was working on Nintendo talked about a
couple new red dots on my world map here the history of the newer Nintendo's and
where it's going next that's what we were done yesterday pretty fun all right So let's go from there to...
Let's go to YouTube.
No, let's go to Etsy.
So Etsy I found out I was promoting listings and it really...
I'm in a negative big time on Etsy.
So got to dig out of that.
I had $36 in sales but I had $90 negative for sale, uh, promotions.
I didn't realize I was promoting more stuff.
So I had to take that promoting off.
So, that hasn't quite worked out for me yet.
And let's go to YouTube.
Potential Strikes. YouTube potential strikes again I don't usually go through doom and gloom of the day except for the drone thing it's not not the thing I'm interested in. It's the drones.
And they're on the east coast.
So that's got my intention.
As most people it does.
It's only a matter of time before we have some sort of a drone issue.
Right?
Alright, so now we're going to YouTube.
Let's see where we're at there. I was significantly going up yesterday. Let's see where we're at there.
I was significantly going up yesterday.
Let's see where I'm at now.
Because my routine is... If I'm going to list something, I'll do a quick video for a minute.
And then it goes on to my shorts.
And then it goes on to my listing.
And then I attach the listing oh and 4999 i'm one
away from 5 000 although as always i was just so bummed about it uh my estimated revenue is 32 dollars and 65 cents so that means I went up a dollar and I almost added
another thousand subs and my Santa my Santa folder that I promoted this has
lots of lots of views on any comments no comments so if you just if that just if my revenue just reflected the amount of
hours in in subs i added it would be wonderful not asking for a million dollars i just needed
some extra help a few hundred dollars a week would have been wonderful but i was just not
getting it at all it's so disappointing it's almost to the point where it's really depressing.
But I keep plugging away
at it, but it's like
beating a dead horse here.
I don't want to say it like that.
It's just
it's
a bummer.
I'll use that one.
I don't want to use analogies.
It's about animals.
I love my animals.
Oh, yes, my life in a double shave.
So I'm adding a live thumbnail to the ones from yesterday.
I'll use that one.
So that way you get...
Yeah, it's one that's almost shaved off.
So it's a good view i got i did up high so that the camera goes down angling down while i'm working on my head and i have my
my mic right near the where i'm working so you can kind of hear me a little bit
it's pretty fun just throwing everything out there and again it does bring me a lot of stuff
but alright so let's drum roll here
for eBay let's hopefully
this thing paid off yesterday
I need a couple sales
a little bit
hopefully
got some offers
but normally when I get offers
they're like really
uh oh but normally when I get offers they're like really for a laptop
yeah yeah
so this guy's asking about a
hard drive
no you'll need to So this guy is asking about a hard drive.
No, you'll need to reformat.
Reformat. Using disk management. Disk management
Manage
Management
This
Has
Xbox
On
OS
On it
In partitions xbox one os on it
in partitions
all right so this is about you guys somebody wants one of my xbox one system hard drives
but he wants to use it for his computer so you'd have to reset it up it It says it has not any partitions.
Okay.
So,
uh,
so all I have to do is install the zip.
Hmm.
So, uh,
this is how I do it.
I have to plug.
Hmm. Hmm. this is I do I have to plug it is now he's asking about offline and upright
it is
a process
I'll give him a link well it seems like
eBay doesn't let me
get links
give links to
such a
it's so frustrating
thinking I'm like
trying to secretly
sell stuff differently
but it doesn't really matter
it is a process
it says
I
will
give you a link a link of doing it on my YouTube channel if
to channel that's what I like YouTube because i use it to communicate better with buyers
however ebay restricts me but it also lets you share it so it's really some
20 i wanted 40 so i don't do half off unless i did have half off sale but nobody bit nobody went for it
uh for cyber monday I had everything the whole my whole store was half off and nobody wanted anything
so I'm not doing it again half off I did one day just to the fun of
bummer I only had a couple orders from maybe there.
Something of a good nature.
Or not.
Oh, that could help me out.
Alright, so I had a few orders.
What's today? Monday.
Cool.
So let's see what we sold that will help me out.
I'm really struggling these days.
So every sale is like another
Oh, I did another one
of those shows.
Oh, I sold my last Commodore. So all three
Commodore motherboards I sold.
Two of them I tested.
Actually, I tested all three Commodore
C64, Commodore
64 motherboards yesterday.
And one worked fully.
And then two had no video either out of the the um
rf or out of the audio video so i sold the all three of them so that really helped me out so
all that hard work yesterday paid off so that's pretty exciting alright
so we'll get
those printed out
and that'll help me out
a little bit
but yeah every day is a struggle now
just in general
just selling
and I've been throwing everything I can
to try to
get my sales going but it just
hasn't been working at all and I try to mix it up to try to put all kinds of fun
random game they did yesterday I did controllers some broken stuff some good
stuff but we just keep plugging away
get me closer to my goal
and I'm gonna do the same thing today, I'm gonna ramp up some more stuff today
I'm just going to keep adding actually that was that one
and then
oh I sold another
I put another set of
black
hopefully I can find the covers I need
it's the whole outer shell
for the Xbox
360
fat black
I do a five piece set someone asked me about it once i sold them one
and then i just put another one up just and then i sold that one so
i should be able to come up with another set or two so we're going to um get that listed today
i've got lots of black ones around I just gotta find the
top and bottom grill I pretty much should have one around and then we'll get that out and
then also the front plate as well that goes with it but I don't have one that's
complete missing some sort of one of the flaps. So, hopefully I can find one of those.
Now I'll go down to maybe a four piece set
without the front grill.
If I can find one.
We'll look around.
Oh God.
Let's see what else is in that order. See any? I sold a...
Oh.
One of my...
Sony PS2 Slim 9000 model power supplies.
It's the EADP-340DF.
It's the last model of the PS2 Slim.
And it had it's own power supply.
Therefore you don't need the power adapter anymore.
So I sold one of those.
Oh and I had a return yesterday.
From a Wii.
My Wii motherboard set.
It said. the return said
change the mind
so that hurt
that's a big return
so
we'll see what happens
hopefully it comes back
with the one I shipped
I'm kind of worried about that one
but
most of the time
I'll refund as soon
as it's marked as shipped
but for that
I'm going to wait
until it comes back.
Because I want to make sure I'm getting back what I shipped.
Because.
I think that one's been a long time since that guy bought that.
And all of a sudden out of the blue.
I get a return for it.
That's usually never good.
Not in my experience anyway.
So we'll see what that.
Is about. in my experience anyway so we'll we'll see what that is about so they just popped up last night usually or returns i got out of nowhere i had no idea
buyers could have had them for for weeks and months so i have 60 days so
so i can pop up before my 60 days. So.
I'll suit that.
That'll take a few days to come in.
And then I'll check it out.
And then respond.
Something's weird.
I haven't fought any returns yet. I could have fought some really bad returns.
Or stuff that came back.
That wasn't even what I shipped.
But.
Just causes more drama for your eBaybay account that you don't need okay so that should be about it for this morning looks like a pretty good day
i've got some i'm gonna do i'll do some of those more that uh common of 64 i've got one to tear
down that's a good one all right so that's my morning i'm sticking to it and then i will
find something to do for later on today all right i'll talk to you guys later all right bye
