Good news, bad news

Good news is, Jon got the job at Costco. Bad news is we have no money for rent from last month or this month. Nada.
He gave me $100 to put on SDGE, I transferred it to my bank. Then when I went to SDGE site I hit the wrong button and it was for paying the full amount of $206 instead of $100. I had to pull some money from the second savings to cover that. Which only had 275 in it. That's our nest egg savings. I auto transfer 250 from my paycheck ever time to pad that and we've had to dip into that every time.
I don't know how long the patience of my landlady will be but she was rather terse when I paid her half the rent last month.
She doesn't want to put us out on the street along with Rocky but I'm scared she will have to give us a final notice any day.
We have no money for rent but we have food.
I have to wait until Thursday for the HR lady to get back so I can push for the matching donation from the fundraiser they did four months ago. Even that isn't going to be enough maybe only a few hundred dollars. It'll be something but still not enough to float us for the next few months.
I'm posting this here because Sandy (landlady) is on my Facebook list and frankly, that's embarrassing to ask for help for rent when she can see it.
We need some help but since we're both working, public assistance won't look at us. Can't do a personal loan as my credit is shot with not making payments for the last three months and neither of us have benevolent rich relatives to help us until we get caught up.
Needless to say the wedding plans have been put on hold indefinitely.
Jon has been having breathing issues which we're calling asthma but I think it's worse than that. It's open enrollment now so I'm going to look into putting him on my medical part time doesn't get benefits) and then he can get to a doctor and get a note for work to excuse him from doing cart runs.
I get paid next friday he gets paid opposite weeks so that means he doesn't get paid again until the 15th.
We just need a leg up for the next few months until we build up enough to get momentum.

Edit: Good news is the 401k program at work matches my input so it practically doubled this quarter and stocks are way up. IF it is necessary I can claim hardship and dip into that but really, if  it continues to do that well I really need to save that as a last resort. Bad news is  I can't add Jon to my medical unless we're officially married.

Worried about a lot of things right now but my devotion to my man and having a life together is not one of them.
