Three years and seventy-eight days in a row have passed since I stopped smoking.
I kept one set of sixteen-time push-ups for the sixth successive day and over
one set of fourteen times of them for the fifty-second straight day.
I really hope to the number of push-ups little by little because spring is
just coming and it'll be getting warmer and warmer.
First, the season of Japanese plum blossoms is exactly around the corner.
Weather officials' comment that tomorrow's highest temperature will be around
fifteen degrees has to hit the mark.＾＾；；；

I have kept no-smoking for three years and seventy-seven days in a row.
I could keep over one set of fourteen-time push-ups for the fifty-first straight
day, not sixtieth.....I mean I made a mistake yesterday.
And I also kept one set of sixteen-time push-ups for the fifth consecutive day.
Anyway this morning was so cold with the lowest temperature of minus 0.6 degrees
Even so, this year's severe wintry cold must end as soon as possible.

It has been three years and seventy-six days in a row since I gave up smoking.
Although I needed a strong will due to coldness, I managed to keep one set of
sixteen-time push-ups for the fourth successive day and kept over one set of
fourteen times of them for the sixtieth straight day.
Actually I've begun feeling sunshine is getting more and more spring-like.
It's becoming gentle and warm, isn't it?
I'll really have to decide on where to go to enjoy cherry blossoms this spring.

Three years and seventy-five days in a row have passed since I kicked smoking.
I kept one set of sixteen-time push-ups for the third consecutive day and
over one set of fourteen times of them for forty-nine days straight.
I've noticed that it's getting steadily milder and milder, and weather reports
say the highest temperature of next Wednesday will be around 14 degrees, which
means no half coat may be needed during the daytime.
Springlike crisp weather is just around the corner.

I have kept no-smoking for three years and seventy-four days in a row.
I also kept one set of sixteen-time push-ups for the second successive day
and over one set of fourteen times of them for the forty-eighth straight day.
I was surprised yesterday to have noticed that my bank cash card was invalid.
I've learned that my mother made mistakes in inputting the PIN twice.
1050 yen was charged for reissue of a new card, but I actually canceled the
accound and had a new account opened.
Anyway it's kind of troublesome and I'll have to be careful in using a PIN.

It has been three years and seventy-three days in a row since I quit smoking.
For the first time in a very long time, I tried increasing the number of
push-ups by just one time to one set of sixteen times, and I kept over one
set of fourteen-time push-ups for the forty-seventh consecutive day.
Very luckily, today again, yesterday's weather predictions has been changed,
and the newest forecasts say it'll NOT be snowy or sleety tomorrow and the day
after tomorrow.
I really hope it'll get warmer as soon as possible.

Three years and seventy-two days in a row have passed since I kicked smoking.
I did one set of fifteen-time push-ups for the fifteenth successive day and
kept over one set of fourteen times of them for the forty-sixth straight day.
It's greatly sunny today but actually I've felt rather cold due maily to cold
winds.
Luckily, yesterday's weather prediction has been changed and it will be cloudy
tomorrow and will be sleety, not snowy, the day after tomorrow.
Anyway I hope weather will return to normal as I'm really sure I can endure
normally wintry cold.
