well, the longer you take the more I'll have to figure out what you're up to, too.
This forces me to do one of about three things. . . . but the choices all require some study. I'm turning in, will not be able to take the next move for a day at least. . . .
Not that I like this move, trading down when down to begin with is always a bad idea.
Bd3

retreating one diagonal square. . . .
Bxf5+.
Pretty sure you might really want to think that over.
here, let me build the pic again:

If there is anything wrong here, tell me and I'll fix it. Now, I'm going to follow the listed moves from the beginning to verify the pic.>
hmmmm. . . . this gets us to a position that is different from the pic above, in that my K is on c1, not d1. A better position for me, I think. . . but I'm gonna re-compile the list of moves, de novo.
So from the list of moves, the Kc1 is correct, but it is different from the game I was looking at when I made my last move, and is material to the outcome. . . .disastrous to me.

I'm gonna be reviewing the developments here for a little while, again, to see why I thought K on d1. I am still building the pics from scratch when I do, and it's easy to make a mistake.
*
here's a different pic I came up with going move by move from the beginning. This is like the old adage about a man with one watch always being certain about what time it is, but a man with two clocks is never sure. . . .

NOTICE THE POSITION OF YOUR BISHOP, ALSO DIFFERENT FROM THE PIC AT THE HEAD OF THIS POST. WELL, AS THIS LAST PIC APPEARS, I THINK I DON'T NEED TO REGRET ANYTHING. LET ME KNOW IF THERE IS ANYTHING WRONG WITH THIS LAST PIC, PLEASE.

It appears to me that my "other chessboard" game was wrong because I was anticipating a move by you of your bishop back to h6, and my response to that was to move my king to the d1 position. On that line of development, when you moved your rook to h4 or somewhere else, I would have moved my rook as well, evading the loss of my rook.
I remember it, and when this game is done, I hope you won't mind another game.
