You cannot post a video file, but you can post the internet address which is a link to the file.
One simple way is to right-click on the top of the video and click on Copy URL, then paste that link here.

It can be a little tricky as the menu for posting videos is hidden, then shown as an icon.

As per the illustration below, first click on the three dots to bring up a hidden menu. Once you've done that you'll see a relatively non-descript icon that represents "media". Click on that. A dialog box will come up that will allow you to paste your YouTube URL inside it and provide a description. That should take care of the issue

Followed your reply, but kept getting message that URL wasn't embedded. I'm not sure about the URL, is that fairly long, what is description. As you can tell my tech skills are limited
 
Just go to your YouTube channel to see your videos and click on the one you want to post for details. In the details there should be an area to see and copy the link to your clipboard. Do that- copy the link. Then just bring it here to post as shown above.

You're welcome.
I'm so happy to see green and blue skies and that you could finally post your video.
