After being laid off and unable to cover rent, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a call-centre agent in Scranton 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 $250 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 three personal and work 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.
Thank you so much.

hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best.
Praying for you, Sophia. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. All the best.
sending love. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Scranton.
Wishing you peace, Sophia. Shared it with a few friends. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Envigado.
Sending strength, Sophia. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
