If I played my last move, I will play this one. I mean, I had to decided BEFORE playing my last move if this cut worked out for me. Seeing one more stone on the board doesn't elucidate anything new for me. I also have to be ready to be flexible for a good result.

I need to work to settle my group a bit. He can capture my cutting stones, but I feel like I don't have time to try to save them. I am a little bit leary of strengthening these white stones because it makes the invasion in the bottom left better for black.
I think that when I jumped out one space, I might have been better doing a two space jump so that he couldn't cap and the game wouldn't become so complicated. He could take a big territory if he killed my stone, but I could make a more territory overall. Anyhow, I can see how he is stronger than me.

Does anyone see any conflict in these statements:
@move 62
This is a key cutting stone.
@move 66
He can capture my cutting stones, but I feel like I don't have time to try to save them.

i can feel that my opponent is afraid. he is trying to hold his advantage by thinking too much but usually that attitude will cause mistakes and lose the game.

This move saves my stones while threatening to capture his cutting stones. I believe that the last exchange was enough to keep his groups from connecting with an attach/crosscut maneuver. I wanted to draw back, but I want to get this move in now.
Before, I felt like sacrificing these cuttings stones could be ok in this case. Partly because I could sacrifice them like so:
