Posting alignment problem

For 2 days now I have been racking my brain trying to figure out how to post an article and cannot seem to get anything right. I simply want to have a small thumbnail on the left of the excerpt but for some reason it keeps aligning the image with the Title of the article. Here is a screenshot I took:

Can somebody please stop the bleeding? Thanks so much to anyone who can help me with this. Also, I can be reached on YahooIM at [email protected] or Windows Live at [email protected].
