I had an idea a few days ago as I toiled away on my hand-made-teardrop-cocktail-hat-birdcage-veil-with-hand-made-flowers-and-sewn-on-beading. I said to myself, " I bet someone out there would like tutorials of my projects!" I know I'm always scouring the internet for tutorials. They are indispensable in my life. I believe if I can find a tutorial for it, then I can make it.
That's when the idea of my blog was born. I have several friends who blog and I read more blogs than I can keep up with. My interest are wide, so I follow blogs about decor, fashion, storage, organization, cooking, sewing, art and on and on and on. You get the idea. I thought I would throw my hat in the ring. How hard could it be?
Those are famous last words. Not because posting a blog is hard, but because designing a blog page is much harder than I imagined. More frustrating than hard, actually. I thought I would sign up, pick out a template, pop in a few pictures, followed by witty comments, then Voila! A beautiful blog people would be clamouring to see.
That's just not how it's working out at the moment. Right now my blog is down right ugly! I've been wasting so much time trying to get the smallest details right, that I have finally just given up, and decided to make this a "work in progress".
So- in summary, my blog is just not going to look exactly how I want it to for a while. I'm anxious to actually start blogging, so I'm going to do that, despite the look of my blog being sub-par.

Woohoo! Now we can keep up even more when you move!
Drive-by linking: here's Wikiversity's course on CSS. http://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/CSS I know you have so much free time to spare for learning web engineering.
Also, it's super nitpicky, but I'd switch to a sans-serif font for the body. They're much easier to read on a screen, for some reason.
