Hey all, I’m a cis ally in the upper Midwest of the USA. I offered a room to Keris a while back and she accepted.
She got here Wednesday night and things are going very well. She likes me, my wife, and our cats and one dog, and is learning to tolerate the other.
She has an attic bedroom that is her space alone.
She has time to unwind and figure out what she wants to do without fear of being dumped on the streets.
I just wanted to let you all know that we have taken her in and that she is safe and loved.
[Joke] Halp I’m locked in the basement he makes me eat only Spicy Nacho Doritos!
Wait, that’s fine, the basement doesn’t have a lock, and the dogs ate the Doritos 😅 Also I live in the attic.
Apparently I’ve joined the family via the approval of the cats and dogs 😅 One of the dogs isn’t bad, even! Other one’s a hellacious pest 😅 Distracted by Star Wars @.@ Maybe yap more later
Glad your in a stable spot! Be sure to enjoy the time of peace before planning your next steps.
I’m someone who had a lost decade due to various problems and eventually recovered, married, and got my wife the house always wanted, her grandmothers place.
That attic bedroom isn’t used. It’s been more or less storage for Christmas stuff.
The intention is that she has exactly that, time, peace, support, and few demands. We aren’t rich but it isn’t taxing to have someone else here.
Plus we are all weird nerds and we are getting along fantastically.
We also have decent support here in town for her and a few other local allies. But I am admittedly new at this, and just glad that I can provide the help and that we all like spending time together.
I think your very kind and I’m glad things are looking upwards for Keris 😁
