Missed pill AGAIN - input needed

Hello all,
So in a haze of finals-induced stress, I took my Sunday pill in the third week of my pack 20 hours late. I have been using back up. I know after you miss a pill you are supposed to use backup until you take seven active pills in a row, on time. I took my Monday-Saturday pills on time (6 total) and then started my placebo week.

My question - after I take my first pill this Sunday am I protected, or do I have to take seven active pills in my new pack?
