What do I say when I take the 3 steps backward & 3 steps forward

What do I do if I'm in the middle of Shemoneh Esrei
& they start doing Kedusha?

During Shemoneh Esrei, my mind wanders
& I start thinking about what I’m going to cook for dinner
or that my son forgot his knapsack, etc
What should I do about this?

I started thinking about something else
& forgot to hit my chest with my fist for the forgiveness (חָטָאנוּ & פָּשָׁעְנוּ)
part of the Shemoneh Esrei. Do I have to start over?

When do bow & take the 3 steps backward & then 3 steps forward
towards the end of the Shemoneh Esrei?

BOW LEFT

In shul, some women bounce on their toes
at the end of Shemoneh Esrei
while others sit down & others don't move.
