Someone made me a hilarious paintbrush |Another VLOG

[@jamiebadore4820]

A coffee table book would be great! Your brother could photograph it and we could have both of your work oh! Ashley's gardens and chickens!

[@hollystarks1810]

You took the words right out of my mouth. So sorry to hear about the chickens nature can seem so cruel at times. Love that finger painting brush it deserved a showcase frame of humor honor!!! Waking up after an episode like that is so scary for both of you. I hope this will be the puzzle piece needed to finally figure out the cause. It really makes me wonder if it could be more related to your heart and the brain issues are a side effect of it? Stay safe and listen to your body. Create when you feel like it. ❤

[@carrieramsey2313]

Gosh Josh, that's pretty darn scary for you AND Ashley!!😮 Do you check your blood pressure? With you having dizzy spells, etc,you may want to start doing that! There is something called Orthostatic Hypotension...where people stand up from a laying or sitting position & their blood pressure drops. Hence passing out. Happy to hear you didn't suffer a head concussion! Broken facial bones are bad enough right! I would definitely start monitoring your BP and when getting up, do it slowly for your body to adjust(Just a suggestion from a 20+ yr RN). Prayers to you!

[@tinabranch321]

I love how you got a cool gift and put so much thought and care into making the display look just right.

[@renfairegoddess]

Josh, that's so scary! Ashley is a nurse. Right? Ask her to do a poor man's 'tilt table test' on you. I have something called POTS (Postural orthostatic tachycardia Syndrome). Mine is pretty mild, and like you, I can mostly tell "something" is happening, and I just go lay down until it passes. My "episodes" are often in the middle of the night when I get up to pee. I had to wear a ZioPatch (wearable ekg basically) for 2 weeks, and thankful it actually caught 1 episode. My episodes we're maybe once or twice a year before I had C19. They're now pretty much every other month. Still way less frequent than people who experience this daily. ZioPatch also caught one episode of SVT (Super Ventricular Tachycardia). That one, I've only felt maybe 4 times (all after C19), including the one on the ZioPatch. I was just laying on the couch when it happened. In less health related news, I found a tank of oxyacetalene in my garage and had previously been told some odd looking contraption in my basement (inherited Dad's house) is for welding, so now I'm strongly wanting to take a welding class at the local community college a mile away so I can make large art pieces for my garden. Mostly because of how awesome it was to watch your hammerhead vlog. 🤞 my yard doesn't end up looking like Sanford and Son. And another thing! Lol. I'm now questioning if my grandfather was Canadian or spent a lot of time there, because he said 'again' like you do. Uh-gain, instead of the typical 'merican uh-gehn. Makes me smile thinking about him every time I hear it.

[@renfairegoddess]

Forgot to add when I feel 'off', I check my Fitbit, and sure enough my heart rate is elevated. I'm pretty sure you said you had been on all kinds of medications for your brain thing, but recently came off of them? Was any of them a beta-blocker? And did you have any of these episodes while you were on it? I'm pretty sure that's what the cardiologist said I could be prescribed if my episodes started to impact my ADLs. I had a full cardiac workup because of this and my father's extensive cardiac issues (MI's, stents, a pacemaker at the end). My heart structure (not the right word??? Health? Still not the right word!) Is fine. I just have this, and a murmur that I've had since birth, and I'm told they are not related.

[@sandylee9564]

So sorry you're having to go through this. I did notice right away.....I knew your eye was brused and you were swollen but I wasn't going to ask. Bless you.....

[@katieallen3927]

A book with photos of the shop along with photos of some of your work would be very cool.

[@jeepssnow9506]

Praying for an accurate diagnosis & treatment for whatever’s the cause of your head issue, & soon, Josh 🙏!

[@cindiegrimm5983]

Well, I'm gonna pray this is the missing piece of the broken brain puzzle that leads them to a fix! That finger brush is amazing and it looks great in its outstanding frame!!! So sad about the chickens.

[@SherryAnnOfTheWest]

Awwww, so sorry about the injury - Josh Septic Eye .... Helpful Hint: sit down while you're taking a leak in the middle of the night and the fall isn't as far. I really hope and wish the best for you in this whole health journey .... this $hit has been causing you pain for too long. XXX

[@Zincchromeshema]

I just think that you're a wonderful, creative person who's so not afraid to be yourself. I enjoy your off the cuff humor honesty and humility. Sending good thoughts.

[@reneebekas8977]

You worry me kid. So glad you went and got checked out. No more breaking your face!

[@melfromnz7850]

Dude, your eye! 😮

[@darlenemcintyre9998]

You should invite your doctors to watch your videos. I feel there is information there that they might find useful

[@JoshuaAlexander138]

I do. But also I explain in way more detail to them each time.

[@langsense]

So sorry for your latest problem, Josh. Lets hope it gives the neurologists and docs more info that might help them help you. You take care of yourself but keep kicking ass with both feet! xx

[@ivydickson7596]

Just love to hear how your artistic mind works dude. Keep doing what you are doing, we love it.

[@seanmartin2791]

I love the idea of a book! I’d buy it!

[@NogginsVintage]

Daydream workshop is amazing

[@bludaizee24]

Omg Josh! I'm so thankful you didn't get hurt even worse! Fingers crossed, it helps you get some concrete answers finally!💕

[@joellenmeek658]

I saw a video from a woodworker that showed the inside of his electrical boxes in his shop. He showed all the built up sawdust that cause so many shop fires and vacuumed them out once a month. Really got me to thinking and it made perfect sense.

[@joellenmeek658]

Sorry if you already knew this.

[@lorettamercredi-burns4305]

Always giving you a big thumbs up! We really enjoyed your show and hope you are able to retrieve more of the footage. Take care of yourself and your own fingers! Robin

[@JoshuaAlexander138]

Haha. Thanks man!

[@maddieadams75]

What a great, gift love the thump paintbrush. 🎨 Josh I’m so glad you didn’t get hurt worse.❤

[@curtainsup9]

I am thinking you should take a photo of your splattered paint wall and have it printed into a large piece of art.

[@charleennobles3819]

I do not have all the other problems you have, but I do have Vasovagal Syncope which does call me to faint for no reason. So maybe you might mention that to your doctors. Fainted standing in line at a checkout and woke up to find people staring down at me.

[@kikihammond5326]

Ugh. That sucks. Hope you get some answers. I don't know if this will help you at all, but I see a chiropractor that does atlas orthogonal chiropractic realignment. Perhaps that could help you.

[@Cquoya]

Great vlog❤

[@claws-n-whiskers4675]

LOVE the idea of a photography session in the studio and shop. (Continues watching....)

[@jodirauth8847]

You might get some corrugated plastic to screw into the frame over a new heavy duty truck tarp.

[@crinkle2649]

The sun breaks down plastic, that's why there are holes.

[@Cquoya]

😂maybe Jakota could become a coffee table book author? That would be awesome!❤

[@emilyolsen3916]

The lighting in the first room was awesome!

[@vickicouling6338]

Hey Josh you have been on a journey with your health. I commented a while back my eldest son was suffering the same issues.He was put on Indomethacin. He did the same thing the wake up on the floor including the stairwell of his work place. Well 5 years down the track he is not suffering these issues anymore. He does however get migraines occasionally that are blinding normally with stress. So hopefully it will right itself soon. Wishing you the best of health. ❤

[@emilyolsen3916]

If you put a little paint behind the thumb it might look like it is finger painting, and it will make the thumb stand out.

[@crinkle2649]

A coffee table book would be great

[@patriciacowsert3112]

Do it in black and white, just an idea. For the coffee table book

[@tinabranch321]

After 30 screws , 2 plates I was unable to watch videos. I’ve been binge watching for 3 days and I’m happy to report I was able to watch and like them all. Had 3 days of hanging out with josh. BFF for life 😂 😂😂😂😂

[@JoshuaAlexander138]

Glad you're starting to do better!

[@samirwildcat]

Funny thing happened to me last Thursday. On the way back from the toilet i blacked out and and my left eye the bridge of my nose and my cheek were bruised. went to the hospital a few days later and discover ive had a silent stroke and have a blood clot in my brain.

[@reneebekas8977]

Wow Samir that is scary! So glad that was discovered for you and hope you are doing well.

[@marystrenke3050]

Oh my goodness 🥺 best wishes to you

[@JoshuaAlexander138]

Holy! Thays crazy!

[@samirwildcat]

@@JoshuaAlexander138 as you were telling your story i was thinking the similarities were uncanny. It was like holy shite! No feakn way! and me in New Zealand listening to you tell my story.

[@terramarini6880]

Pool noodles cut down one side or pipe insulation on every pipe that makes contact with the membrane or tarp.

[@justynejaniszewski4626]

Love the finger painting brush and how you custom framed it. My dad had episodes of passing out. No doctor ever really found the cause. Dad lived to 96.

[@karenkaus3746]

With all that has happened to you Josh, you still have your sense of humour. Nearly spat out my drink when you called out my name. Well done by the way. Thank you for writing my name on the door - - I could see you writing the names but I couldn't make them out. Your book idea keeps get better. Shop photos along with "works in progress" being made with various tools in the shop. If I didn't say it back in April, your shop is amazing. There is just so much to look at that it is overwhelming. On a more serious note Josh. Like you, we all keep hoping that someone will figure out what's going on with your brain pain and now this. Keep on your doctors for answers and listen to Ashley when she says you should go to the hospital.

[@carolmiller7310]

Love the “brush”

[@Cquoya]

Love that new shop mate, bro❤

[@scrapgirl82]

37:44 "But/t..." Not lost on me. Made me LOL. :D

[@JoshuaAlexander138]

Haha

[@tamyramcgough6862]

I've done that sort of passing out three times,but thankfully not since my twenties, the last time I split the skin on my chin open, bit my tongue and cracked a couple of teeth. Maybe I learned my lesson.

[@JoshuaAlexander138]

Damn!

[@TheAccidentalViking]

Josh, there are loads of fonts online that you can download if you are ever doing computer graphics. I'm an 'old school' desktop publisher and was making flyers, newsletters and e-zines before blogs and vlogs were a thing. I love a good font. Also, you can tea or coffee stain paper to make it look old. Sorry about your eye. Heal up fast.

[@paulromile3270]

FINGERPAINTING BRUSH I thought the fingerpainting thing Was stupid going on dumb. Until Josh revealed, What he had previously concealed, That his paintbrush is actually a thumb. Whatever the type of paint, On a palette or just in a bucket, He just dips it in, Whether bucket or tin, And if he gets the urge, he can suck it! 29 June 2024

[@barbarairving1248]

I'm glad you went hospital I was worried about you after watching JJWJ the other day. The paint brush is so cool it deserves it's own frame. A book of photographs of the workshop and various works in progress would be interesting there is so much to see there. So sorry about the chickens,nature is very cruel. Hope your face heals soon. Take care ❤

[@christawensing9958]

I was told by a nurse that when you urinate your blood pressure drops...Could you be having issues with low blood pressure which in turn causes the dizziness? Wishing you lots of luck with your health issues 🤗🤗🤗

[@glennybarkedalot4572]

It’s called “Micturition Syncope”

Usually if there's something of concern, it's much too high. But who knows.

[@sandraclancy6221]

Had to laugh at you, saying, "I wonder if I stepped on him." Then picking it up, and it was flat. Hell yeah, you stepped on him. Take care of yourself, Josh. Hope it's something not too serious.

[@tami8027]

So sorry about your face, hopefully it will lead to some answers for you. I enjoyed seeing your project .

[@doninis1354]

I thought of taking pictures of parts of your work shop a long long time ago...I think I did a comment on that as well, not sure about that. But yes! a photographer would love it. I would for sure! I think your wok shop is a peace of art in itself, so was the old one. Hope you get a lot of messages of photographer in your area, who would love to do some interesting photos!

[@donnaroten599]

Love it. Perfect fram.

Dizzy spells too? It all sounds bad and you are one tough artist. (Cerebrospinal leak comes to mind, some weird form of epilepsy??) Don't give up on getting answers. Wishing you the right ones!

what a great idea but the frame is too busy ...It takes away from the finger......I hope your head thing is sorted soon Josh its been too long and a bit too scary if you are starting to black out....Praying for you...love to you both .

Take pool noodles cut in half then you can from inside put over the peak of addition. Should stop the fraying, tape in place, the pool noodle should fit right in it .

[@LisaG-fu9zp]

not good when ya do a face-plant and go unconscious. Please stay on top of it. sounds like low blood pressure. do deep fast breathing ( like you just went into cold water) to bring your blood pressure up, especially when you feel it coming on, before you go down for the count I know it's happened to me, this has worked for me.. 2 years ago I did a face-plant and got a concussion I still get strange headaches once in awhile. I also have had low blood pressure and had to breathe fast to bring my blood pressure up or brace myself before I fell down or slowly collapsed. I'm trying to do deep breathing like Wim Hoff stuff to get fresh air into my system and release the build up of carbon monoxide in my body. But I did that before I discovered Wim. I've done a lot of practiced breathing to make myself more aware many years I have low blood pressure naturally now it helps also doing belly breathing (like a baby) to up my awareness in myself, I'm not no guru or anything I basically have done these things to make my body last longer. And plus I don't like falling unexpectedly.

[@chrislayne3765]

Have you been checked for epilepsy? Epilepsy can cause dizzy spells and also passing out. I never heard of epilepsy being caused by moving heavy objects like you were moving when it all started years ago but your symptoms now are sometimes caused by epilepsy. Just a thought. I would imagine your doctors have already tested you for that.

[@curtainsup9]

My brother has had multiple sclerosis nearly 29yrs (he's 55 now) and for the first 5-6yrs didn't have a definate diagnosis of what was wrong... I really really hope it's not what you have but lots of your symptoms are the same as he had. A few yrs ago he had a fall in the toilet too but it was just a small toilet room and he was stuck on the floor against the door. The fire department had to come out and take the door off to get him out....

[@JohnMoore-rv4zm]

At 45.34 stopped here to tell you (haven't watched the rest) that in my experience these USB old to New wires don't move around welI. If you get them working without shifting the device, they'll keep working, but it's too easy to dislodge them without them coming all the way out and the only way you know it is when it fails. .02fwiw

Did you do a voice over when you were sanding the little holder thing (you know the one that you didn’t wear any eye protection while making it)? Don’t know why it’s bothering me enough to ask, but that’s just one of the details you put in because you’re so dedicated to making these videos so damn good.

[@JoshuaAlexander138]

I mean, kind of. I just carried the audio from the first clip over to save time and keep it more interesting.

[@r.k.2823]

Josh, could this be heart related? Various and random BP's high and low that might go undetected when you are observed under medical care? Could this have an effect with your brain issues? Ashley can take your BP at home I'm sure, but in case she isn't around, you can get a home BP cuff and do your own readings. Especially when you get the dizzy spells.

[@JoshuaAlexander138]

It could be. I was referred to a cardiologist again.

[@MichelleBakken12]

I heard the krackling Sending prayers

[@LifewithLillie23]

Pretty sure you have mentioned this......did docs decide it was not a spinal fluid leak? The constant pain and dizziness go hand in hand with a leak.
