You are doing just right.

Resizing alters length, so you resize/decap first, then trim. Trimming does not do anything to the case other than cut excess neck length - no point in re-resizing.

If you wish to clean primer pockets you can do that any time after decapping - before or after trimming. Now the case is ready to load.

I clean primer pockets on rifle brass only, only because I know that scores can be affected by confidence so I want the best confidence in my match ammo I can get. Other people never clean primer pockets and never have any problems.
