I've never made a website from scratch. I've done a little bit of html work, but it was for an already established website. I was following someone else's rules for style. The CSS file was already in place, so anything I made immediately looked professional. Now I'm starting from scratch. My site still has the super basic black text on white background and does not look professional at all. And that's okay! I will learn as I go.
I'm typing this with a very clingy dog in my lap. My partner is out of town and the pupper misses him a lot. I miss him too.
I don't know if anyone will actually read this website. I've never had lots of followers on social media, and my life isn't all that interesting. That's okay too. This website is mostly for me, anyway.
