Hi, it’s difficult to begin this conversation because I’m genuinely embarrassed and feeling isolated. I’m trying to start anew, and I need to remind myself that no one has ever achieved anything alone. I believe we often overlook the smallest things that have propelled us forward. I’ve lost myself in a situation where I have no control over my finances or housing. My current partner maintained a completely separate life. I need to find a safe place for myself and my pets, and hopefully, for my belongings. Things have rapidly deteriorated.

I’m seeking support to cover moving costs, deposits, and temporary housing while I figure out a permanent solution. When I leave, I’ll only have my pets, my tools, a few personal belongings, and my car. I’m starting completely over. As my future I thought I was working toward has while maybe not been destroyed, It is not here. They say bad things come in threes, but I still have hope. I am resilient, and at almost 39, I know I am capable of much more.

I am a local handyman and working on homes I rely on the kindness of strangers. I’m a kind person and honest to a fault, and I’ve always been able to find a way forward.

”If—" by Rudyard Kipling

“If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster

And treat those two impostors just the same;

If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken

Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,

Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,

And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools”

for any help or assistance I’m truly grateful
