I applaud your efforts to continue your education/ go another direction/ dream differently. Never too late! I got a degree in my 40s when my kids were in middle school. Never stop dreaming and reaching!
I don't have advice on careers, really, but I'm cheering for you!!

FIRST, AWESOME that you're putting yourself first to get your GED, keep that focus going! IMO when there's several areas of interests look at what you can do now, this point in life, example travel, may be that for you. Go for that experience. Try everything on your journey to you and your joy!

Several airlines are hiring right now for flight attendants. Best to be an early bird. Maybe also see what positions the airlines have open, both private airlines, and commercial to get industry experience.

A flight attendant job is great for someone who likes always being somewhere new, but keep in mind that's about as opposite from a work-from-home job as you can get. You'll be away from home for days at a time with a very varied schedule.
