Beginning of a New Blog

For some strange reason I cannot get on my own blog.  No matter what I have tried, it is just not working.  So I have created this one which is in its very basic form.......will play with it when I can figure it out.  I can't even get my header to be the size I want, so this is probably going to be a work in progress for a long time.  I am not happy about having to start all over, so I will take my time and add things as necessary.  Am planning to keep it simple.
