I think I'm headed in the right direction. Step one, deal with criminal case. Step two, move. Get the kids to help me put my things in storage for now, and just go. Step three, apply for aid. Step four, if I can get the charges dropped or reduced, go back to looking for a part-time job in Phlebtomy. Get a job. Step five, continue working on court reporting training.
In addition to the above, continuing to work on health and healing, GAL, and healing relationship with kids. It's not broken, but we've all been traumatized by what's happened and my own actions caused some damage. I promised I would make them proud, so that's what I intend to do.
