Taking over a website from previous developer/ Quick-Start guide to drupal 8?

A. Change the order of our homepage slide show. B. Remove a weird grid overlay that appears over each "page" of said slideshow. C. Unlock full resolution of our pictures so they don't appear "degraded". D. Improve the overall appearance of the website, as it's menu bar and some of the text/animation looks like it was done in Ms paint/PowerPoint 95. E. Optimize website so looks good when accessing from a mobile device.

I'm sure that's the best thing to do....but I don't feel like I'm even capable of learning drupal, much less really even want too. I just need to make what I would of previously consider to be small changes now, and then I can put the project on the backburner until next year. I'm on hour 10 of Sam's teach yourself drupal, and I have spent almost all of my downtime and breaktime in the past 4 weeks at work trying to learn Drupal. I've gotten nothing out of it I feel like. I've feel like I've accomplished more just hunting around the "back end" or wherever I am getting into. I don't feel like spending 100+ hours just to learn to tweak a terribly built website terribly, that would take me 10 minutes to do in another builder...
