Root HELP!!! problem with recovery after using Kernal Manager

Oh boy. I think I really messed up here. I have searched these forums and others. But I made some big mistakes (I think) which I cant find help for.
Root method: unrevoked. Rom: cm7. Attempted to flash savage zen kernal via kernal manager (for the first time).

Ok so I have been sucessful in flashing roms with rom manager. So I thought I would give kernal manager a try. I did not back up before flashing the kernal ( I understand now that I should have just like I ALWAYS do for a rom). I attempted to flash the kernal and the process stopped at hboot. I then went into recovery and installed the kernal from the "intall zip from sd card." I was then back in fastboot unable to get back to a working phone.
So I took out the sd card out and put in on my mac. I then took a old nandroid back up file and put it on the sd card. I then put the sd card back on the phone thinking I could restore back to that back up. THe file could not be found. While the phone was sitting on my desk at the backup/recovery I bumped the phone pushing it into backing up. Geezzzeee. I have wiped cache and davik cache. Anyway, now the only back up I see is the mistaken one (the one that I just did, but didnt mean to do). So here I am. HELP.
Please dont be too harsh. And thank you.
