Thank you @mirzak for the explanations. I did see all those sizes which is why I posted them and bolded them. Was just hung up on rootfs size. Now that is resolved and working great.
I did in fact move my applications log files to the /data directory, which makes way more sense. But the danger was still there as the normal system log files would have eventually filled the small amount of remaining space available.
Glad I figured it out, works great now!
