I messed up not paying for professional packers on such a tight timeline I'll take that. I messed up not booking a stay somewhere in case things went as bad as they did. My responsibilities got done on time, there wasn't much I could do to bring up the slack working 12 hour days between 2 jobs that don't offer PTO of any kind.
If I could do it again I would've booked an AirBnb home for the week so we weren't living and moving into the house at the same time. Was trying to save money because closing costs are always such a damn mystery til the very end. "Well it's probably $3,000 but might be $7500 since we haven't verified your earnest/due diligence money yet" I wanted enough cash on hand to handle any crazy scenario with the lender but it was everything else that decided to go to shit.
