Gg, I think this is the second game where I was up and somehow managed to blunder into a mating net. Need to work on my endgame.

Yeah I definitely feel like I stole this one. I wasn"t sure I was mating until I got to play Ng4, might go back and look at whether you had a way out before that.

Wouldn't call it stolen, seeing mates when your opponent doesn't (or at least before your opponent does) is an important skill, possibly the most important in the game.
