If anyone happens to see this I have a question about Krita. I was trying to draw on my picture but for some reason every time the pen touches the tablet a yellow notepad pops up and my marks show on that instead of the picture.

You're not telling us which OS you're using... Or show us a screenshot of what's going on. But in any case, Krita doesn't do yellow sticky notes of any kind, so it must be another application or an OS feature you've enabled.

Assuming that you're using Windows 10: It sounds like Windows Ink has been updated or activated in some way and it thinks you want to make a hand written sticky note whenever you use the stylus. You could try finding and examining the Windows Ink settings/configuration.

If you're using a Wacom tablet, I've found that making a separate application profile for Krita, in the Wacom tablet preferences/control utility can fix some issues.
These are my own opinions and experiences and are not guarenteed to work for you.
