It has been twelve years and three hundred and fifty-
seven days in a row since I shook off a bad habit of
smoking.
I was able to keep over 9-time push-ups for the
ninety-sixth consecutive day including the latest
twenty-one days of 26-time push-ups.

It has been pretty dark with gray clouds covering the
sky, and it looks like it is going to start raining
pretty soon although weather ladies said this morning
that it would be overcast in Nagoya.
The temperature at 9 was 11.6 degrees, up 1.5 degrees
from the same time yesterday, but actually, I feel that
it is much colder today than yesterday.
Perhaps....I need much more sunlight.

Twelve years and three hundred and fifty-six days in
a row since I broke free from smoking.
I was able to keep 26-time push-ups for the twentieth
successive day and more than 9-time push-ups for the
ninety-fifth straight day.

It is currently cloudy in Nagoya and I feel that it
is a little dark and cold.
The temperatue at 9 was 10.1 degrees, down 3.5 degrees
from the same time yesterday.
I have used a reflective sash while walking and riding
my bike on my way home in the evening after getting
dark since three days ago or this Sunday.
I have noticed that a reflective sash is very effective
to secure safety on the street.

I have succeeded in preventing myself from smoking
for twelve years and three hundred and fifty-five
days in a row.
I was able to keep greater than 9-time push-ups for
the ninety-fourth consecutive day indlucing the most
recent nineteen days of 26-time push-ups.

After a cold rain, now there are a few white clouds
in the blue sky and it is mostly sunny in Nagoya.
This morning was much warmer than yesterday with the
lowest temperature of as high as 10.6 degrees.
I am wondering if I should do a long-distance walking
in winter because, without a target like that, I am
less likely to do daily walking.
Well, anyway, I need a much stronger determination.

I have been able to do without smoking for twelve
years and three hundred and fifty-four days in a row.
I was able to keep 26-time push-ups for the
eighteenth successive day and at least 10-time
push-ups for the ninety-third straight day.

It is perfectly sunny in Nagoya with no clouds in the
blue sky and it must be a typically winter clear sky.
However, it is not surprising, but it was very cold
this morning with the lowest temperature of 5.9 degrees,
one degree down from yesterday.
I slept with the air conditioner on and I have found
that it allows me to have a good sleep.
