Daily Routine

Push-ups: １４＋１４ times
Walking: ４４ minutes
Standing with one leg　：１０ minutes each
Cigarettes：０
jogging on the spot　：０ minutes

Two years and 228 days in a row have passed since I stopped smoking.
I could keep 14+14-time push-ups for the second consecutive day and over 8+8-time
push-ups for the twenty-sixth straight day.
Actually yesterday's highest temperature in Nagoya was 37 degrees.
That's why I felt a little dizzy on standing up yesterday....it's said to be one of
the symptoms of heat stroke.
Today, fortunately or unfortunately, it's been raining since this morning.
The rain clouds are blocking severely scorching sunshine....it must be lucky for me.

Daily Routine

Push-ups: １４＋１４ times
Walking: ２４ minutes
Standing with one leg　：１０ minutes each
Cigarettes：０
jogging on the spot　：０ minutes

It has been two years and 227 days in a row since I quit smoking.
I tried increasing the number of push-up by only one time each to a total of 28 times,
and kept over 8+8-time push-ups for the twenty-fifth consecutive day.
It's actually so humid and so hot today and weather forecasts this morning said the
highest temperature in Nagoya will reach 35 degrees.......Oh, my.
I've really been fed up with summer heat and humidity.
I need at least some wind....I have no choice but to pray.＾＾；；；

Daily Routine

Push-ups: １３＋１３ times
Walking: ０ minutes
Standing with one leg　：１０ minutes each
Cigarettes：０
jogging on the spot　：０ minutes

I could keep no-smoking for two years and 226 days in a row.
I also could keep 13+13-time push-ups, althugh I felt it rather hard, for sixth
straight day and over 8+8-time push-ups for the twenty-fourth consecutive day.
It's cloudy today but very very humid and uncomfortable.
The humid tetter near my right shoulder I got a few days ago has almost completely gone.
...I've felt relieved.
Now I'm planning to resume jogging-on-the-spot in the near future not at home but
at my work place.
Anyway the theoretically hottest summer period has just begun and will continue for
at least two weeks, so I'll really have to keep guarding against heat stroke.
Again, let's survive this summer.

Daily Routine

Push-ups: １３＋１３ times
Walking: ０ minutes

Two years and 225 days in a row have passed since I kicked smoking.
I kept 13+13-time push-ups for the fifth consecutive day and over 8+8-time push-ups
for the twenty-third straight day.
Today is the voting day of Upper House election and I have already voted not today
but on Wednesday.
I think the right to vote is one of the most important rights as a member of a society.
A person says, "Being indifference to politics means being indifference to a lion
set free in the city."
I'll completely agree to this.

Daily Routine

Push-ups: １３＋１３ times
Walking: ３４ minutes
Standing with one leg　：１０ minutes each

I kept no-smoking for two years and 224 days in a row.
I could keep 13+13-time push-ups for the fourth straight day and over 8+8-time
push-ups for the twenty-second consecutive day.
I stopped doing 10+10+10-minute jogging-on-the-spot in my room because the sound
by doing it prevent my mother from sleeping in her room.
It's sunny and sometimes cloudy in Nagoya again, and I honestly feel that recent
summer heat is not so hard for me......maybe because I've got used to it.
Anyway carelessness is the greatest enemy, so I'll continute to guard against dehydration.

It has been two years and 223 days in a row since I gave up smoking.
I kept over 8+8-time push-ups for the twenty-first straight day including three
consecutive days of 13+13-time push-ups.
It's sunny and sometimes cloudy today.
I've noticed that cicadas on the trees on the way to my work place have started
chirring in earnest, but ones near my work place have not.
Usually, the beginning of cherring by cicadas occurs at the almost same time as the
end of the rainy season.
I feel this year's beginning of chirring by them is actually later than usual.
