 * I am new at this, I have the software downloaded, I can’t figure out how to install.
   The instructions are like a foreign language, can anyone help me get this installed
   and running?
    And yes I need you to please talk to me like I’m 5.
 * Thanks, Katrina

 * Hi Katrina,
 * I know what you mean about the instructions provided by WordPress being like 
   a foreign language. If you want easy to follow instructions, have a look here:
