Anyone else???

I don't mean to be a bug a boo or negative energy, but lately I've been "tired". I broke my hand held mirror June 12th and didn't replace it. I said I'd stop looking at the back of my head for growth, at least for a short while. I stopped going to my fotki because I would compare the pic to how my hair was that day and wondered if it were better today than the day the pic was taken. I looked in the mirror today and it looks like my hair has grown. Last picture taken of my growth was around June or early July. That's a looooong time for someone who took pics every other day. Well, the urge to run and get the camera sort of just subsided. I looked at my hair and thought...so what. It's growing, I'm still anal about what I use in it and I'm still doing my regimen but MAN, I've lost the desire to "watch" it grow. Maybe that "new car" smell is gone. The newness of discovery has diminished. Am I the only one???

When i first started it was like the first day of school when your goal is to get straight A's all year, excited, learning where and what everything is, really organized with all of your stuff, studying an hour daily for a week....now its like the middle of the year where your still in it, but you've relaxed/got lazy into a routine, study for 30 min 1x a week, somtimes loose a paper,....happy with B's

Im just more relaxed with it now, sometimes i get in a mode where i want to be really into it again...maybe after seeing some progress pictures or seeing alittle bit of breakage....but that doesnt last long.

Yes ma'am one of my books says an average of 0.36 mm/day (0.01417 inches/day) for women. Its good to not just think of the bigger picture how close to an inch am i going to get this month and know that your hair is still growing every single day.

ETA--my answer i would say "most days" becuase i ALWAYS want my hair to grow, but most days i want to make sure i take care of the hair i have so that i can see the growth.

Girl, that's why I'm in braids....
All I gitta do is wash the roots.
Sometimes I get lazy.
Weave is my refuge.

But I won't ever get bored. There will always be something new and fascinating in the world of hair.

--Like once I figured out how to maintain moisture then I said well, "Hmm....what's this henna thing all about?"
--I like short hair and I'd never allowed my hair to grow past SL so I began to have thoughts, "I see all these ladies with long a** hair. Hmm....wonder what I'd look like with long hair. >>gasp<< Why not grow REALLY long hair? That'd be cute..."
--Then when it started growing, I was looking at all these darned cute puffs (darn these naturals and their fros and cute puffs!) and thought to myself, "Ooh--never been natural....what would THAT look like? no matter--I want a puff darn it!"
---Then one day I got excited, "Oooh...what if I were long AND Natural? Like BSL length. That'd would be too cute!"

Which brings me to today...
