You shouldn't have anything to worry about. Make sure you check from a
remote IP address to see if your rules are actually doing what they're
supposed. It's too easy to get these things wrong, although I mostly
manage to lock myself out in these cases.

Having nothing of value is no great protection these days. Most
attackers are happy to contend with adding your machine to their army of
well connected zombies. So if you hear stuttering, you know what to look
for ;)
