Pardon my dust.....

I am in a bit of a transition phase with this here blog.  I am trying to create a blog that I am comfortable with and that I can use for a long time to come.  So, please pardon my dust as I change layouts, titles, backgrounds, etc.  I'll be happy when I get it all done!  Until then, it's probably going to be a bit of a hot mess (I'm still new at this whole blogging thing)!
