Amazingly I started feeling sore just a few hours after my workout!
Although I wasn't sore before A5, I was definitely tired and it took a real effort for me not to just come home and fall into bed.

Ha, yes! It's amazing what a little shake up in your routine can do. I've been routinely going to bed between 8-9:30. And I refuse to feel bad about it - sleeping feels nice.
I think your workouts look good. Very respectable weights.

And I use the same system in my notebook, making little arrows to mark if I should use less or more next time.
Also, I find that when I'm eating less than maintenance, I get sore a lot faster and for a lot longer than when I'm eating a good deal. I'm doing a cut and man, I have been raw this week. Lots of ice packs. I wasn't nearly this sore just a few weeks ago, when I was eating more. So that could be a factor in addition to your new workload - you may not have felt too sore because your nutrition is in a good place. Does that sound right?
