Tax Accruals

I'd like to announce that I conquered income tax accruals today!
There are topics in accounting that I have a hard time wrapping my head around. They are never super complicated, but if I can't conceptualize something I tend to not be any good at it. Tell me where the numbers go all you want but if I don't know the "why" behind the numbers or the process of determining them, I struggle. If I can't follow all the pieces I just won't be any good at it.
I didn't do as much conquering as I did finally figure one out, after going hours over budget, taking much longer than it should, and enlisting the constant help of a partner for several of those hours today.
Still, it's a thrill and a proud feeling when after hours of work and being run around in circles (income tax accrual do this a ton) finally getting everything to balance and tie.
And this is why I like my job.
Something is wrong with this paragraph: “I didn’t do as much conquering as I did finally figure one out, after going hours over budget, taking much longer than it should, and enlisting the constant help of a partner for several of those hours today. “
Should it be “I didn’t do as much conquering as I wanted, but I did finally figure one out”
or “I didn’t do much conquering, as I did only figure one out.”
Or what?
This desire to beat Kyle is making me be super critical of your posts…sorry.
