Getting into working out/weight lifting, need help.

[SaintV]

I am 34 years old. 170 pounds, the most I have ever weight in my life. My body really is not terrible. But I'm starting to get a bit of a belly, and I just want to be in better shape overall. 

I used to go to the gym in my early twenties with a guy that actually knew what he was doing. An aspiring power lifter, but that only lasted a few months. I'm not looking to get jacked and body builder level. Just stronger and even out some.  I have already bought and built a decent home gym in my spare room, but I need some kind of plan. I'm not asking for a full time physical trainer for free. Just a good outline on exercises that I can follow. Maybe suggestions on things to add to my home gym. 

Just to add, at the moment I am mostly skipping leg day. My job is pretty much carrying a eighty plus pound tool bag up and down stairs all night. My legs are fine at the moment. But as I build upper body I will work on them more to keep even. So ask any questions you need and I will answer and any help is appreciated.
