Following a long illness in the family, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $400. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, we must leave. I have two young children at home. Moving isn't just an expense - it would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. I have started working night deliveries, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here. Funds go to the landlord and nowhere else. Any amount left over after the arrears are cleared will go toward next month's rent. Where the $400 goes: • Rent arrears (3 months): $230 • Late fees and court costs: $25 • Utilities in arrears: $15 • First month of rent as a buffer: $130 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

        Thank you. If you're in Peshawar I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Happy to explain more.

    • I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Savannah this morning. Take care.
