You have made a great choice. A couple of years ago, I was in the situation where I was looking for an alternative the 17-55mm f/2.8 lens that has been the "standard" lens on whatever was my crop format Nikon for close to 15 years. I also have the 24-70 and 70-200 f/2.8 lensrs, but sometimes they are just overkill for what I expect during a day's outing. And I am also fortunate to have full-frame cameras and some other lens choices.
What I ended up doing was adding a 24-120mm f/4 lens that I found used for a very attractive price at my local camera store. It has proved to be extremely useful...both on the crop and full-frame bodies. In fact, the full-frame with that lens now gets used for more of the "casual" outings that formerly saw it left at home in favor of the crop outfit.
You have a very useful "core" of lenses that can serve you very well. You are in the enviable position of being able to add lenses if you "want" to, not because you "have" to.
