Cleaning the Mess

The title of this post has a triple meaning.

1. My little girl is gone.  Accepting this has been difficult, but she has left me with a mess of pictures and mementos.  I'll be using them to convert her Facebook account.
2. I come from navy stock.  "The mess" means the eating place.
3. My thoughts, on this New Years Eve, are scattered all over the planet.

Since Sunday, I've been working for Dex inside his house while he works for me outside.
