Obstacle 1 Defeated!
New Theme
Because of the time-consuming work of making Cell phone and Tablet platforms look like my computer generated website, I switched Themes. At first this seemed like a daunting task, but thanks to a fellow member's advice, I felt like I can do it, so I did.
This member told me to make sure to back up my website, great how to do that? Another member sent me a link on how to do that. So I took 2 - Learning Courses to learn how to do that and successfully backed up my original website. I also learned the importance of backing up my website once a week.
Another member let me know to look for a Responsive Theme, What is a Responsive Theme you may be wondering. A responsive theme is a theme that will automatically make your website look the same on computer platform, cell phone platform and tablet platform saving untold hours of work.
Quest for new Theme.
I researched Themes in order to find the one I felt will take care of doing all the present and future capacities that I plan on having on my website. This took me 1 - day to find what I was looking for. There are 100's of free responsive themes out there, I finally found the one I thought will work for the type of site I'm building. It turned out to be a much much better site than the one I originally picked.
Changing Themes is No Longer Daunting.
Armed with the information from fellow members and taking additional learning courses on; backing up a website and installing a new Theme. I was now reading to make this new website change over, it was simply transferring one website to another, seamlessly. It was surprisingly easy. Of course, you have to tweak your new site with changed fonts and different layout. All the tools to do this is available for us to complete the task at hand.
Conclusion
Changing Themes took me 1 - day research and learning how to do this. One day picking out a theme for current and future growth. One day to make the new Themed website. This process took me 3 days to complete, it has saved me hours and hours in comparison to tweak cell phone and tablet layout, plus I found a better all around website layout.
Backing up your website and changing Themes is surprisingly easy with foreknowledge of how to do it. Take your time to learn these courses, make a game plan on how your going to proceed, then do it. If I can do it everybody can do it!!!

You are right, YOU can certainly do this and you are proving this to yourself already. You should be proud of your progress thus far Art, it is accomplishments like these that lead to long term skill sets.
Sometimes things take 3 days to complete, but once you complete these you have established a new skill and next time you go to perform the same task it is second nature.
Keep up the great work!
Thanks Kyle, I appreciate your input, it helps to let me know I'm still on course.
