Beautiful! I had to bid. Fanned and bidding!

I have the bid for now, but I know this is going to go over my credits. My sister in law showed me the red opal. Wow! She gets the best stuff. She told me the estimated replacement value. She says you usually just do that if you need to insurance. Who would ever think someone would auction something worth that kind of money on Listia? Not saying this emerald is worth thousands, but i don't have one. She offered me my pick of half a dozen, but my brother always gets mad at her cause she gives anyone in the family anything she has if they like it. She has given all the gals in the family tons of really expensive gemstone rings, bracelets, necklaces and earrings in gold and in sterling. She used to make everything and she had an episode with her torch one time, now my brother has to watch her. Lately her eyes are giving her a bad time and they are running all kinds of tests on account of her MS. Her husband hid a lot of her equipment, so she can't even cut stones anymore. She says she can't half see them anyway a lot of the time. She used to make all these fancy cuts too. Sorry I got into all that. just thinking about her and all the stones she has from over fifty years of collecting. Her Dad got her started when she was a kid.
