53 yr old mom with 14 year old twins is looking for a place to stay in the Plymouth Meeting area.
We are being evicted in November and I want them to complete the school year.
I will give you $50.00 a week and $ 300.00 in food stamps per month for a room or use of your basement
until June. I will sign an agreement that I will be out of your home after the school year is finished.
I need a place to save money and to search for our own apt while they attend school.
I am clean, sober, quiet and my kids are great kids and do well in school.
I am very upset at the thought of
causing a disruption in their education.
If there was a homeless shelter in this area, I would go there but I have been checking and searching
and there is none.
I would also help around your home with cleaning while I am there.
Please, we just need a room, doesn't matter if it is an empty room or the basement, anything to keep them
in school for the last year.
This might sound like a sob story, I am not looking for sympathy, I am seeking help, temp help
I am a 50 plus single mom with twins (14 yrs) . They are bright,behaved, great kids who don't deserve to
be homeless .
A little background, a story that everyone has heard before, I made a bad choices, a few bad choices
I left my children's father when they were 5 yrs old and I have been struggling financially ever since I had them.
We lived in one apt I was able to keep for 8 years, then I lost it and we lived in Florida for 4 years, back to Pa for the last 15 months and now we are facing homelessness in less than 2 months, my kids are upset, scared and feel like our life as a family is never going to be a secure one. I also have that fear.
I cleaned houses for 20 some years so I could be at home with my kids and have a more flexible job that allowed me to be off when they were sick without risking being fired so I really never had a regular job.
I am exploring all possible options I can think of to secure a roof over our heads temporarily or long term.
What I really would like is to be a live in housekeeper, without pay for a room in your home for self and kids.
I would tidy up everyday, make beds,take out trash, pet care, clean bathrooms,kitchen, living areas.
I would need two free days a week to clean homes outside your home for income.
Another thought is to find another single mom who is also struggling to find and share an apt, share expenses and such right down the middle. This of course is a task that requires trust and compatibility.
At the present time, I need to find more jobs to save money for a place to live if something else does not come up within 2 months, we will have no choice but to go to a shelter which is the ultimate dread.
If you are not looking for a roommate to share or you don't really want a few other people in your home, if you have space just for a few months while I get my act together saving money to get my own apartment I would be so grateful and I would clean your home in exchange.
I am also great with elderly persons and would be willing to watch your senior mom, dad or parents when you are work.
I need a lucky break somewhere, my kids need security, security that I am not able to provide for them at the moment.
A little about me, honest, trusting, friendly, a loner, clean, sober, no criminal records. I love time to myself, I don't have a social life, I don't party or date. I am a simple person who lives a simple life.
I thank you for taking the time to read my story.
I will also like to add, no perverts need to reply, I am not interested in being a slave to your sickness.
Any replies as such will be deleted.
