We have all been there. Just appreciate this as a simple mistake and not something forcing you to take something back apart again.

so after facepalming through my skull, it went on a nice long drive. hitting 65...eventually according to my gps. could physically touch the bit of floorboard that's been worn through to time so that's good.
