I'm still having issues with my video editing app. I'm not sure at this point what to do. Since I'm out of town until the beginning of February, I don't have access to my computer to create my videos.
I apologize.

I've been trying all morning to upload the Dollar Tree challenge video. Every time it gets to about 50% it stops and kicks me out of the app. I'm going to keep trying. If you don't see a new video from me tonight at 7pm, that means I couldn't get it to finish.
I truly apologize.
❤❤❤

I am currently working on a $10 Dollar Tree challenge video. It may not be available until Wednesday which means me missing the Monday video. I apologize in advance.
