After leaving an abusive relationship, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a care assistant in San Jose 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 3 months. I can pay $300 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out.
