I just counted my sourdough loaves from this year and hit 200

I keep a little notebook by my oven and tally each bake. I looked at it today and saw I passed 200 loaves since January. That number hit me because I remember struggling to get a decent rise just two years ago. It's not about selling them, it's about the quiet hours and the feel of the dough. Has anyone else tracked their bakes and been surprised by the total?

Wow, 200 is a serious number! I track mine too and the total always shocks me, it really shows the work you've put in.

Doesn't counting them take the quiet out of it?

Oh, I get what you mean, but for me it's the opposite, like @thomasgonzalez said.

Tallying my own bakes gave me that same shock, it really shows the quiet work.
