Less of a Question, More of a Thank You!

I just wanted to stop by and say thank you to absolutely everyone that helped me with my previous questions about leaving my grandmothers.
Today I got up real early and packed most of my things and took them to my new home and then went to work, and when I got off work things blew up. I got real shocked because she legitimately laughed at me when I said that how much she stresses me out makes me suicidal. She yelled some, security came and then she stomped off leaving me at the mall. My friend's mom was there and I'm at her house now, and I go tomorrow to the police station in the morning with my friend's dad to talk to them about temporary custody until the court date. They are not counting me as a run away or a kidnapping in any way since my grandma just left, and that will probably just help my case more from what security said.
My first day of work was awesome :) I got paid training basically, I now know how to do register, the piercing cases, do basic housekeeping like keeping the shirts nice, and they changed my job from seasonal to part time since one of the other workers recently quit.
But, thank you all so much. The encouragements and ladies who had less than ideal childhood and still made it through and Theresa and Ephie helping give me an idea about the process. Thank you so much!
What are you ladies thankful for today?

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

My grandma is fighting me for my cat, but cats in Virginia are not property. I can go there anytime I feel like and get him. Shes doing it out of spite, and I brought him with me to my friend's house and she came and got him while I was at work. She didn't even take his food or litterbox, just him and his cage so she clearly doesn't care to much about him.

I am thankful that my son is finally taking a nap without a fight. He hasnt been feeling well lately, and therefore hasnt slept good in a few days. But I laid him down in his crib and all is silent! So I am thankful that he is finally finding some rest.
