After leaving an abusive relationship, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a hospital cleaner in Sydney and I have a steady income, but I can't find a place that will let me in without the first month, a deposit and references that I'm in the middle of replacing. I'm looking for a spare room for 2 months. I can pay $340 a month toward bills, I'm tidy and quiet, and I'd be happy to help with cooking, shopping or yard work. I have no pets, I don't smoke, and I have a landlord and employer references. I understand that inviting a stranger into your home is a big step. I'd be glad to meet in a public place first and to share my work details. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

  • sending good thoughts. Your post was clear and honest. Love from Rochester.

    • Praying for you, Nora. Shared it with a few friends. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless.

      • Hope things get better soon. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Glendale.

        • Wishing you peace, Nora. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Sydney.

          • keep going. I hope things turn around soon. Thinking of Sydney

            • Sending strength. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.

              • best of luck. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless.

                          • good luck, Nora. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless.
