 * I figured out how to move the text up on my home page using the style.css file.
   However, I can’t seem to find the correct code to move the test to the left.
 * Suggestions?

 * If i understand your problem correctly you need to reduce left margin of home
   page content. if yoou want to do go to style.css
 * at line 152 change 82 to your required value
 *     ```
       .entry_content {
       clear: both;
       margin: 0 0 0 82px;
       }
       ```
