Hi Brent, I agree with Brian and Wavy, when you can, get a 15mm. I have a 14mm and this range has been highly used across three telescopes (4", 6" & 10"). Great for viewing star clusters and in my 10" is my go-to eyepiece for comet hunting. 7mm hits the spot nicely for planets and the seeing conditions often allow pleasant views; if not, just throw on the 10mm. I've never needed to use my 25mm since I got my 22mm.
My most used ones are: 7, 10, 14 and 22.
Seems I pretty much did in order what Brian suggested :

Yes a 10 , 15 , 20 and 25mm plossl set would be a great starter set that will last you for a long time ,,,,  until you need that 6-7mm and 32mm and ,,,,,, it will happen so be careful .

I got fed up with mucking around in the dark barlowing different eyepieces so I replaced and bought more eyepieces, I went for all wideviews.
That's what happens once you get into this hobby... you will always want more
