You would have been (and now are) on my prayer list (it seems to be growing alot lately). What a lot of hard work you're doing on your home, but it's a very memorable time in your life, treasure every moment. I'm still in Seattle with my daughter Cindy at SCCA (Multiple Myeloma). She's still having some (one day up and 2 days down) tough times, but it is slowly getting better. We hope to be dismissed (back to Olympia) by 3/11/10. That's 90 days post Allo stem cell transplant. We can hardly wait! Our best wishes to you and your wonderful family - we are so very proud of you! Love from a distance is okey. I had no idea of what you’ve been going through!

It is an old meat scale from the area but don't know where... We got it and I just had no room for it. I wanted to get the glass plate for the top and reset the scale for that! Good luck. It is a cool item! I am glad the last owners left it for you! The scale was left by us! It is an old meat scale from the area but don’t know where… We got it and I just had no room for it.

Might try that if you have an auction house in your area. Grady is such a handsome little guy!
