And as I was attempting to restore from backups, I found the backup drive has read errors which causes restoration to fail.

I was in a rush again, and this is the price I pay, again.

I just feel like I am so slow at things already that I can't afford to back my data up in duplicate or triplicate. Or to do a fake restore to verify the integrety of backups each time.

Apparently, I should just go slower, because now I am spending a bunch of time restoring things one VM at a time and keeping notes on which ones already failed, which ones build upon those ones that can't be restored and so forth.

I am just so exhaused by these setbacks all the time...
