Please help me with 2 layout issues on my WordPress home page. I think that it is a theme issue...

I am having a couple of issues with a WordPress site, and think that they are because of either the theme, or the fact that I moved some files from directory to directory and something got corrupted... The website is www.thehandlebarredhealer.com

First - The first issue is that quite often when I am editing pages or working from the dashboard, there is a brief moment in the upper-left hand corner of the screen when some text appears that says "Search a icon", and "loading" - please see this video and watch the red area in the upper-left corner healer-theme.wmv. Also whenever I print a report from Formidable Forms, the same image of "Search a icon" appears in printed reports. Please advise as to how to fix this problem.

Second - There is a gap that I find too large between the social media icons in the header and the blog title. Any solutions as to how to tighten up that space would be appreciated.

For the Social Media Icons, try removing/commenting out the

width: 33px;

Open in new window

found in the

media all
.social-icons a:link, .social-icons a:visited {
    ...
    width: 33px; 
    ...
}

Open in new window

line (line no 288) from your css file (style.css)

For the social media icon issue, I suggest adding:

.social-icons {
    display: inline-block;
}
span.emltp {
    display: none;
}

Thank you very much gentlemen. Neither seemed to get the effect I wanted.

So I simply added the social icons to my menu in the header. That worked fine on the desktop, but nothing appeared on my phone's responsive version of the theme. So I added the words "facebook" and ïnstagram" next to the icons so that something would show on the smaller devices. Not exactly perfect, but gets the job done.
