I wanted to give a quick update on my new site redesign.  It has been a long process, but I finally have something I’m happy with.  I currently only have the initial design done, There is still a bit of work to do styling the individual posts and sidebar items.  Then I need to develop the comment and 404 pages.  Happily things should move quickly now that I have a primary design done.  Here is a screenshot for your viewing pleasure.
