Isn’t Wp opening slow?
-
I notice that it takes a while before pages open in the administration set up. Also Alexa has pointed out that my site is slower than 95%. is it just my blog or are others experiencing it as well?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

One thing I see is that your dad.jpg image (the uploaded version) is 2mb in file size. On slower internet connections that will cause issues. In general, I recommend image file sized (uploaded) of under 75k. You can do this by saving the image with a lower jpg quality setting such as “medium.”
It also appears like there are a number of HTML errors on your main page, and most appear to be in the widgets. It looks like you are using upper case for your HTML. Never do that, always use lower case. Also, the W3C validator is reporting that there are a number of missing ending tags for your link codes in your widgets. This could be due to the fact that the HTML standard want all tags in lowercase and the browser is having to grind through and sort out all the upper case stuff to figure out what you mean.
I would suggest optimizing the dad.jpg image and then going through the validation report and then go into your widgets and correct all the code issues.
Also, I would suggest going to settings > writing and selecting “WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically” and then click save changes. This should keep any HTML issues from creeping into your posts and pages.
Also, when writing the code for text widgets, do that in a draft post in the visual editor and then when you are satisfied, switch to the HTML tab, copy the code and then paste it into the text widget. That should help keep HTML errors from getting into your widgets.

Wow! Sacred Path cannot thank you enough for the detailed response. Although I must admit that I was reminded of my dinosaur-ish traits evermore.Honestly most of it seemed like rocket science.
What I can do and will do is
1) resize Dads snap
2)” selecting “WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically” and then click save changes.”
3) Going into Widgets and correcting code issues
4)Writing code for text widgets in a draft post first on visual editor and then switching to the HTML tab and copy pasting into widget.Will this solve the problem..to a major degree? ( hopefully)

Yes, it will. The wordpress post editor will correct any code issues. The easiest way to get it to do that is to switch from the visual tab to the HTML tab and then back again.
And you are very welcome.
