[Nevada-Announce] Here I Go Again

[nfb frida]

I didn’t intend to send this to the list. It was supposed to be a private email. However, now that it happened, I want to say that I was happy to meet Sofia Solis mom. We have to have Sofia to our events. Her mom is ready. My apologies for the mistake I made in trying to send email. I now know what went wrong. Still learning and struggling.

That included my favorite device, the iPhone when came time for the two step verification. I will reestablish contact with them. Someone else established contact with the teacher and with them. Looks like I have to work on this.

Every other Thursday or every Thursday, I go to the center to be trained since my knowledge has been destabilized. For the sessions, I take my own laptop with me. I am beginning to feel a little less anxious with it.
