I did it. Today I payed my debts. I thought I could continue to take the kids to story time, craft time afterwards, and let them play on the computers too, and they would be satisfied with our visits to the library. Nope. They wanted books. Each and every time they begged for books. Well, books would be great too, but their mama had a big, fat, gigantic late fee she was avoiding. I avoided it for almost a year. Then I decided today I was going to be clean free of that debt. It wasn't going to be weighing on my shoulders like a monkey on my back any longer. So, I did it. I payed the outrageous late fee and one lost book fee and the kids were ecstatic checking out there many, many, many books. This is a new day. This is a new me. There will be no late fees, and I am holding myself to it!Oh, and if you haven't read Enemy Pie to your kids, it's a great one! We seem to be going through "friend" issuses here in our household, so this was very fitting for our second grader.
