[quote=Anonymous]You send her a text message on the 1st of every month saying "How are you?  Since I haven't heard from you recently, I hope everything is going well.  I know you've been paid recently and I'd like to start clearing the balance on the loan for your dog's surgery.  The balance is $1500 and I wouldn't want this to hang over our heads in case you would need to borrow money again.  Even if you can't pay the whole sum, please forward what you can afford this month."

And when she calls about her car needing work or the furnace dying, etc, just remind her, "Oh dear, you've already borrowed $1500 for Fido's surgery two months ago and despite your claims that you'd repay me from the check you got the next day, you haven't repaid any of the loan from either that paycheck or the last one.  You will need to find another source for the money until you've repaid at least half of the balance on the previous loan."

You remind her regularly that she owes you money and you don't loan her any more until she repays at least X amount of the previous loan.[/quote]
