When my hours were cut in half in September, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Monday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $1,250. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by December, we must leave. I have a toddler and a baby 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 evenings as a cleaner, 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 $1,250 goes: • Rent arrears (5 months): $790 • Late fees and court costs: $85 • Utilities in arrears: $40 • First month of rent as a buffer: $335 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Lidia

  • Is there anything that isn't money that would help Lidia?

      Thank you. If you're in Novosibirsk I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great.

  • Thinking of you, Lidia. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Udaipur.

    • Wishing you peace. Hope this works out for you. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best

      • How is Lidia doing now?

        • Praying for you, Lidia. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless.

          • a secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Blessings.

            • good luck. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care.

              • Stay strong, Lidia. Your post was clear and honest. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Novosibirsk.

                • Hope you get there. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Novosibirsk.

                  • you're not alone, Lidia. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Kharkiv.
