Does not sound too bad at all.
To replace you A/C Drier you need to evacuate the R-134a, Then you are allowed to removed hardware. Install your part and then Charge your system. Unless you have equipment to do so I really recommend a specialist perform the charge. If you charge the wrong way there is a potential that you could damage your compressor.
