Ambivalent, Did you ask your lawyer what he/she thinks of you renting out some rooms, i.e., mother and 6 yr old child? The reason that I am asking is that if you are renting out rooms, it could be considered income and I don't want to see you get caught up in a situation whereby you don't get what is rightfully yours in the way of support at this time.
I know, I'm putting a damper on things, but I'm trying to think of things that won't put you in the pot on a hot stove boiling in trouble.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
