Personal Accountability

So I had a "personal" debt that I've been avoiding for awhile...it was from a friend who loaned me money last year and told me to "pay it back when you can". Well, for a while my financial situation was a bit rocky, but recently things have gotten a lot more stabilized. My friend and I haven't talked about repayment since she gave me the money, but for me it's been a bit like the "elephant in the room" each time I saw her. So yesterday I got the urge to confront it. I had been estimating what I owed to this point, but yesterday I sat down and ran the true numbers. I also contacted my friend about repayment plans...and wouldn't you know that being a responsible adult would pay off?!?! I actually owe about $700 less than I expected! :) Hooray for holding myself personally accountable even though my friend was giving me no pressure...it's a good feeling.
