The next time someone says: "How long will that take to finish?"

...Answer "a couple weeks", not "a couple days". Sheesh. Nothing worse than having youself overcomitted at work because you want to impress a client by turning around changes to a project faster than you can manage.

On the bright side, even when I said 2 days for changes, in the back of my mind I knew that working form home is what it would take... but how much nicer would it be to have a couple more days to look things over.

Now I just have to promise that if anyone asks for another round of changes I'll point out that a couple of days was a bit tight and I'd rather have a week instead... Or reduce the number of changes.
