CSS is a bitch

Honestly, I've been working on this like forever and getting nowhere. But let's start at the beginning.

Today my aunt came to my grandparents place. Since I was able to get a few things done today, and we're going to celebrate my grandparents 50th (marriage) anniversary tomorrow (well, today actually), I was sitting around with my aunt talking about web-design and the new page she's trying to program and how I saw a few things that looked kinda weird. She's doing fine! Considering that she's nearly blind and doing it just because she wants to.

She actually learned how to use CSS stylesheets and HTML. Not bad at all. But she was going in a wrong direction with it, using way too many layers and styles and actually making her page hard to work with.
So I sat down and got to work on her code. ;( First thing I did was scrap 2/3 of it. She didn't write it correctly, jumping up and down in layers and code and making it hard to work with the existing styles the farther you scripted.

I thing I got most of it sorted out, though I will have to look on it again later today. Funny thing though is, that I actually didn't have a lot of know-how at first. I just sat down, looked up the information I didn't know and worked like a fiend. I think i like CSS. I might try to learn more of it. Won't hurt either way. Craaaap!!!!!!!
It cost me nearly 5 hours and now I only have 5 hours of sleep left.

Good night everyone.
