 * That’s how your site looks… posts on the left, wide sidebar on the right.

 * I would like to move the blog posts over more to the left to take up more of 
   the website then make my sidebar wider.

 * Start by making the whole page wider
 *     ```
       @media only screen and (min-width: 800px) {
       .site-container {
           max-width: 1400px;
         }
       }
       ```
   
 * **To add CSS:**
    - If you are using WordPress 4.7 or later, use the “Additional CSS” option in
      the customizer.
    - If your theme has a custom CSS option, use that to add the CSS shown above.
 * Learn to use the [Chrome Developer Tools](https://developers.google.com/web/tools/chrome-devtools/)
   to help you see and test changes to your CSS.
