Yay! Congratulations!
Everybody learns differently... some by reading, some by seeing a demo, some by hearing the instuctions, some by doing. If I don't 'get it' the first time, I try a different method... lol... sometimes I have to do all of them before I really understand something.
My machine is super easy to thread, but I couldn't for the life of me, make any sense of the 2D drawings in the manual, which normally I wouldn't have a problem with, lol. I had to find a video, then went back and looked at the drawings, and they made more sense.
I do love the buttonhole thingy... it's amazing what machines can do!
