Daily Routine

Push-ups: ３０
Walking: ３０ minutes
Standing with one leg　：９ minutes each
Cigarettes：０

I did 30-time push-ups yesterday, down one time from the previous record, and kept over-25-
time push-ups for the eleventh straight day for the first time in a very long time.
I also kept no-smoking for one year and 289 days in a row.
It's been raining since last night in Nagoya and I feel a little cold now...maybe I should
have worn one more clothing.
Now I'm planning to go to a store to see a kind of self-hair-cutter or something like this.
...and also to enjoy a glass of iced coffee at Dotole while practicing English reproduction.

Daily Routine

Push-ups: ３１
Walking: ６４ minutes
Standing with one leg　：９ minutes each
Cigarettes：０

I did 64-minute walking yesterday for the first time in four days and resumed 9-minute-each
standing-with-one-leg after a one day break.
I could increase the number of push-ups by just one time to 31 times, and kept over-25-time
push-ups for the tenth straight day.
I also could keep no-smoking for one year and 288 days in a row.
It's greatly sunny and actually a little too hot while riding my bike on my way to my workplace.
I feel today's highest temperature will be over 30 degrees agaist yesterday's weather forecasts.
I'm looking forward to crisp autumnal weahter and complete cure of Hibun-sho.

I really managed to do 30-time push-ups yesterday, down two times from the previous record,
and kept over-25-time push-ups for the ninth straight day for the first time in a long time.
I could keep no-smoking for one year and 287 days in a row.
According to weather forecasts this morning, only Nagoya will experience the highest temperature
of 30 degrees and the others will see under 30 degrees....Unbelievable.
The lint from Hibun-sho just in front of my left field of view is steadily getting smaller
and smaller about two weeks after I got it for the first time.
Honestly I feel pretty relieved and hope that the symptoms will completely disappear as soon
as possible.

Although it's so hard for me, I managed to increase the number of push-ups by one time to 32
times, and kept over-25-time push-ups for the eighth straight day.
I also kept no-smoking for one year and 286 days in a row.
It's actually sunny and the heat is a little milder than yesterday maybe because the humidity
is less than yesterday....maybe.
The symptoms of Hibun-sho I got twelve days ago are still just in front of me, but actually
I feel it goes for the better.
The symptoms might disappear in several days....or weeks.
I hope so even if it takes much more days.

Again I managed to try increasing the number of push-ups by just one more time to 31 times,
and kept over-25-time push-ups for the severnth straight day.
I also could keep no-smoking for one year and 285 days in a row.
After heavy rains yesterday, now it's got really sunny in Nagoya and I feel a little crisp.
Actually weather forecasts say the highest temperature will still be over 30 degrees today.
Unbelievably.....today is Sepember 19th.....Finally I have been sure that it's abnormal.

I increased the number of push-ups by one time for five days in a row to 30 times, and kept
over-25-time push-ups for the sixth straight day.
I could keep no-smoking for one year and 284 days in a row.
Actually I was caught in a little shower just after I left home to the work place by bike,
but luckily several minutes later it got cloudy, and now still it's quite cloudy and looks
like it's going to start raining pretty soon.
Maybe the highest temperature in Nagoya will below 30 degrees for the first time in a very
very long time, according to weahter forecasts.
Anyway I really hope that autumnal weather will come as soon as possible.
I'm really fed up with over-30-degree summer-like days.
