Almost there
7 months ago
After moving out of town and then moving back again, I did manage to pay off enough to be able to check stuff out again. So at least there’s that. $8 left to pay.

How to pay my library fines
It made me
feel better.
 "It was only $4.60, but I tend to put insignificant things off."
How I did it: The library is one of my favorite places to go...I love books! I love reading, and learning new things, and experiencing the fruit of another person's creativity. I don't usually accumulate library fines, but I had gotten out a book for my brother, for his high school english class, and it took him longer than expected to get to it in class. So, I paid it yesterday. Not a big deal, but when I was creating my 43 Things list, it was something I knew I needed to do, and it's nice to have some easier things along with the more challenging things--anything checked off a to-do list brings about a sense of accomplishment, no matter how small. |

so happy
How I did it: I got paid for baby sitting about two weeks ago and I went and paid my fines a few days later. I paid just enough that I can check out books again. Read how I did it…

I am going to the library after school today to pay the rest of my library fees off! I went to my library on Saturday and guess what happened? I donated 2 cans and got $10.00 off!

Last week I took all my loose change in, and paid off 3 dollars. Not I only have 18 dollars. And I babysit on Thursday, so I can pay off some more! Yay!
I am almost there.

I am REALLY working hard to pay for my library fines, right now. I am doing chores around my home to earn some money. In a few weeks, I will have enough money to pay them off! *I might get a job in a few months, or so.
I am getting there.

I have $5.01 so far. I am at school typing this, and I probably will not be able to get on the computer at the library until I get my fees/fine paid. My father will maybe take me to the library after school, today!

After more than a year, I finally paid my library fine on Thursday.
Besides job hunting and working my last three months at this job, I don’t want to do much but watch movies and read books.

they send me a collection notice I’m not sweating this. It’s not like I’m gonna call the library 300 miles away from me and ask if they’ll take a check. If we move back I’ll deal with it when I deal with it.

I still owe $41.99 to my library since 2004! I really think it’s time to just pay this back and finally be free of library fines.
