(but if i were you i'd get the bigger one.) but you shouldn't feel guilty about spending the money. you've raised two wonderful daughters and had a long career (you were a teacher if i recall correctly?) please enjoy the fruits of your labor. if this purchase doesn't affect your current lifestyle and you are not dipping into any emergency funds, just go for it!
Thanks so much! I think it isn't so much spending the money as it is that the 2.12 is just a better value, and that is important to me. If the larger one had a lower cost to produce and was a better value per carat on my end than the smaller one, I probably would have chosen it instead. But I really loved the 2.12 before I compared the two just to be certain the cut was as good as the other!
