Finally, I welcome you to the new website!  Take a look around.  My plan is for this to be a continual "work in progress".  My blog updates will now appear here (no longer on blogspot) so please bookmark here.  It's been 6 months from the vision to the execution.  I learned A LOT about the working of the internet, web services and design.  Stuff I had no idea about.  It's fair to say I experienced what a newcomer to exercise must feel: overwhelmed and having serious doubts I could even finish what I started.

There were bumps in the road, for sure.  Having no experience with web design services and a limited budget, I went with a small design firm I found through a website called resourcenation.com.  Resourcenation is place for independent entrepreneurs to go and find specialized services for whatever their needs might be.  I filled out a request form, got a few bids, and went with this one firm who paid a lot of attention, and was priced well below what I found locally in LA.
