You walked into a discovered check, allowing white king to get safer. Meanwhile, white queen was almost trapped. For example, after bishop trade on e4, Qxa5 would allow Bb4+ winning a queen.
31... Kd6 is no blunder or mistake: white was winning anyway.
+2 is still very far from game over. There is no easy win for white.
"no easy win"
* A matter of technique. +2 is more than enough to win. Black can resist some more moves.

"31... Kd6?? (2.21 --> 5.63) Blunder. Be4 was best. (31... Be4 32. Bxe4+ Rxe4 33. Rc1 Rfe8 34. Qa6+ Nb6 35. Nc3 Rd8+ 36. Kc2 Rc4 37. Rg1)

+2, +5, +6 are all the same: winning for white

Perhaps, for a 1189 player in an 8+0 game, +2, +5, and +6 are not all the same. Notice that beobeo0209 failed to take advantage of the opportunity to play 33 Rxd7+. Also:
"5. g4?? (3.40 --> -0.30) Blunder."
"12. Ne2?? (3.38 --> 1.16) Blunder."
"13. c3?? (2.86 --> 0.84) Blunder."
"18. cxd4?? (3.00 --> -2.20) Blunder."
"23. O-O-O?? (4.43 --> 0.25) Blunder."
"25. Bf7?? (5.52 --> -0.58) Blunder."
As usual the focus is on the wrong move.
