Computer Virgin
April 6, 2023

So it was an easy site to navigate, just operator error with not being a computer girl, I was still able to get through the process and really in no time at all. I did have to redo the pics a few times, however, I knew it wasnt the fault of the site. I knew it was me that was glitching not the technology. I usually get super overwhelmed and want to shut down and try another day, however, once I took a breath and just repeated the steps 2 more times, I was able to get it done and now that its over it doesnt feel like it was really that difficult. You can do this too, If I CAN...Have a great day.
