Default Topped off with regular power steering fluid instead of ATF

My power steering fluid level was at the min level so I topped it off using regular power steering fluid instead of ATF. I know, I'm stupid. Any problems here? If so, what are my solutions. I have only driven it the 30 feet back into the garage.

They're almost identical. It won't hurt it.

Yep....no issue at all. The question is why was it low.....it does not use fluid to cause it to be low. Check for leaks.
