Reading
After leaving an abusive relationship, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a teacher's aide in Reading 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 $330 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. I hope life is good to you.

    I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Thinking of Reading.

    • Tika Ayu Santoso

      you're not alone. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My husband and I read this together.

      • Emmanuel Kwabena Addo

        Stay strong, Brandon. Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

        • Russell G. Diaz

          Thinking of you, Brandon. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Don't give up

          • Geeta C. Patel

            Praying for you, Brandon. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
