Working on the website - link to templates

I want to update the Captain America Jones website.
I want to use Iweb so I can update the site myself and I like the clean simple look.
I scanned a few photos and pulled them into the template.
I'm looking at 5 words and one picture and can not believe, how I just inspired myself to keep going.
I've been working on webpage templates for hours, scanning pictures and just putting them with the words
"Captain America Jones - the documentary".
I can't believe how satisfying it is to scan in my dad's photos and put them into the template.
Here is a link to some of those templates.
These are not completed webpages, just getting started with ideas.

1st blog entry

My father Captain America Jones passed away on June 2nd 1990.
Every since that time I have wanted to create a documentary about him.
That was over 20 years ago....
During that time, I have thought of many ideas for how I want the documentary to be, in fact so many ideas I have overwhelmed myself with how best to proceed and in turn have paralyzed my efforts to complete the documentary.
The result has been that I have spent a long period of time beating myself up emotionally for not working on the documentary, which has made me into a person who carries around a lot of sadness.

I am sick of being sad and feeling bad for not working on the documentary.
I am thinking that this blog will enable me to stay focused and will help me take baby steps towards accomplishing the goal of completing the documentary about my dad.

I do not know how the documentary will turn out and I do not know what the message will be,
but I am not going to let these unanswered questions prevent me from moving forward.

My plan is to set small goals and hold myself accountable through documenting my progress with this blog.
My first goal was to make a blog entry ... check
Other goals I am working towards:
Improve the layout/look of this blog
Create a new website for captainamericajones.com
an oh so many more, but I don't want to overwhelm myself just yet.
