A little bit before Thanksgiving I found out I had to make a decision to renew my lease for another year commitment or move out by the end of December. I was hoping to go month to month to give myself some more time after my lease expired, but that apparently was not an option because I'm on government subsidized housing. Unfortunately, even with it being subsidized, the rent and cost of living here has increased past my ability to afford.
While staying where I am is too expensive, moving is ALSO expensive. I'm moving 40 miles north to Baltimore, into a lovely row home with a long time friend. I'm excited to be closer to the local art community that I love, and to set up a veggie garden in the backyard. So many things to look forward to, but at the same time I am also very stressed by how big a hit my finances will take in the immediacy.
I HATE asking for money, but this is where I find myself at the moment. If folks would be willing to share my Go Fund Me or contribute, I would be entirely grateful for the help! Thank you!
