We found out today that with what we have paid in court costs and fines and since I have completed all of my community service, anger management and substance abuse classes; It is no longer benefitting us for me to be on probation. My restitution is over 80% complete. We can't do this anymore.

We've taken a pay cut of one third to our income. It has been so time consuming and absolutely humbling. I've followed the cheese through the rat maze and I don't want it anymore. We called the judge and revoked my own probation: I am going to jail.

I'll be gone for a little while but when I get out I'll be completely done. My charge will be "Deferred", I will owe no more money, and I won't have to go anywhere ever again unless I want to. I am too ballsy to turn myself in. I am taking the numbers off my house tomorrow and my husband is going to change his cell phone number. I'm gonna just stay in my house. Whenever I get arrested, as is inevitable, I can only be held for up to seven days; it's worth it to me.

I don't know where to put this so I'll leave it here unless there's a better place for it that I'm unaware of. Any thoughts? Not asking for legal advice, just maybe a "What would you do?" etc. Thanks.
Well here is the update:

I was arrested on Feb 4, 2014. I was sent to Harris County Jail. I was given 120 days hard time and I did 60 2 for 1. I was released on April 2nd. I learned a lot and I can now shake hands with any cop in town. We moved to a one acre property in the stix and my life is very different now. I've been meaning to update and today was the day.
