OMG! A godsend fell into my lap today. A low-income apartment finally became available. I go Monday to pay my $15 credit check. I'll be saving $250 a month, which is a huge, huge deal for me.

As of now, I get $790 a month disability and pay $430 rent. After bills, I usually have no more than $100 left--usually a lot less.

My rent at the new place--if I get it (please, please!!!)--will be about $176 a month.

I won't be rich by any stretch of the imagination, but it will take some of the pressure off.

Happy, happy! Joy, joy!!!!!!

3. Corarose aka Ladydemocrat lives in one of the low income apartment.
I am so happy for you Ladyhawk you deserve a nice place to live and that extra money will come in handy each month.Ladydemocrat/Corarose lives in a high rise in Chicago that is owned by habitat and she pays less then you for a small apartment that rents for $1,200.00 a month without the rent reduction.

Have a drink on me Ladyhawk :beer:.

No one knows what's its like to try and gather up rent, bill money and pay for food at the same time. I am happy for you and I wish you luck in your new apartment.

6. That is such good news!
I hope it all comes together quickly for you.
I can totally relate to the big difference $250 can make in monthly budget for so many of us.
