her old tricks. . . trading up that is!
OK, so I got the 1.50 carat Memoire band a couple of weeks ago. Just gorgeous! Chased the UPS man, took pics for all you nice folks too!
One night at the dinnertable my son (who is 25 BTW) asked me why I didn''t get the 2.00 carat version of the ring. He had gone with me to look at them at a store at Christmas time while I was supposed to be helping him shop for his girlfriend. I told him I thought it looked ''too big''. He said he didn''t know why - and also said he knew I''d be back after the 2.00 version soon. At that point, DH speaks up and said he too thought I had ordered the 2.00 version. He really likes the one I have but he thought the 2.00 carat band would have balanced out the ering better on the other hand.
Sooooo . . . once those wheels start turnin'' look out! After 50 bizillion calls to Saint Bill Pearlman, going back to the store to try on the 2.00 version again (with my 1.50 version in my pocket) DH and I decided we would go ahead with the 2.00 carat ring as we were still in the period where we could return or trade the original one.
And now that the decision is made and the order has been placed I''M EXCITED!!!!!! My hubby really pushed me to do this and I could have stepped down the stone quality but he thought that would be a bad idea too as eventually I would regret it. So I''m just getting the bigger version of what I have!
I can''t begin to tell you what a gem Bill Pearlman has been through this whole process. He probably hangs up the phone and shakes his head
but he has listened and answered and understood. If you ever have a jewelry question to pose, he''s the guy to ask.
Give me a couple of weeks and I''ll post more pics. Maybe I won''t even have to chase old brown again - he might just knock on my door. I''ll just pretend that I''m new in town and that the other lunatic just moved! HA!~
