Your detailed question requires that in this instance, even if you are pro se, that you consult with a qualified attorney. There are time limits to file a Notice of Appeal and the actual appeal. It also appears that the failure to effect service may mean that you can revisit the matter through another Order to Show cause, but again, this should be discussed with an attorney, who can provide a possible strategy or roadmap, even if you elect to continue on your own.
