 * Likely but hard to provide a specific solution without a link or more info. You
   will likely want to edit the css using a child theme. If the elements are in 
   a flex container, it could be as simple as specifying an order value.

 * Also what is a flex container? And if not, how would I need to edit it?

 * With the current setup, you could try this for the header:
 *     ```
       div#menubar-wrapper {
           position: absolute;
           top: 0;
       }
       ```
   
 * If your interested in flexbox, I like [this resource](https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/a-guide-to-flexbox/),
   and [this](http://www.w3schools.com/css/css3_flexbox.asp).

 * Did I not do it right? I put it in the custom css and it didn’t do anything.

 * Looks like it’s working to me. Maybe you need to refresh your browser or clear
   cache. Sometimes Chrome seems to not update css changes for me, so I like to 
   test my changes in Firefox as well.

 * Ok it’s working but now it’s covering up part of the header image and is not 
   spanning the whole page. What now?

 * In truth I can resize the header image if need be. I would like have the sidebars
   meet the top of the menubar situated between them across the whole page, forming
   a box around the header image.
    Can I post an image here of what I mean if it
   would help?

 * Changing the layout of the page is going to require a bit of work. I think you
   would have an easier time if you first changed the markup of your page template
   by having the `<div>` for the menu (perhaps change to `<nav>`) placed above the`
   <header>`. Then I would approach it using flexbox.
