It has been four years and 341 days in a row since I quit smoking.
I was able to keep more than 19-time push-ups for the twentieth consecutive day
including the latest ten days of 22-time push-ups.

It had been raining since last night but now it's stopped.
It's quite cloudy and looks like it's going to start raining pretty soon.
Weather reports say it will be rainy again in Nagoya after this.
The temperatures are around 16 degrees, maybe, but I feel not so cold
because it's a little humid due maily to the south wind.
Actually, I'm afraid I've felt a little pain with urination.
I think it's getting milder and milder....I think I will see how it's going for a while.

Four years and 339 days in a row have passed since I shook off my bad habit of smoking.
I was able to keep 22-time push-ups for the eighth successive day and over
19-time push-ups for the eighteenth straight day.

I did a 105-minute walking for the first time in a week to an AEON shopping
mall in Chaya in Nagoya, where I did English reproduction practice.
This practice is only to reproduce or repeat English that you have just heard.
The way is very simple but actually it's a kind of tough training.
When I first tried this, I felt that some part of my brain which had not been used
began working.
And now I'm sure English-reproduction practice is the most effective way
to imporve your listening skills.

I was able to keep no-smoking for four years and 338 days in a row.
I also was able to keep more than 19-time push-ups for the seventeenth
consecutive day including the most recent seven days of 22 times.

It's beautifully sunny in Nagoya again and I could clearly see the mountains
in the distance, which made me feel like climbing Mt. Tado again.
But, perhaps, I will not, for fear of the wild monkeys that some people
sometimes feed there.
If the monkeys were compltely wild and fleed from humnas when they come
across us, then I should have climbed Mt. Tado many times before now
and would climb it from now.

It has been four years and 337 days in a row since I overcame a bad habit of smoking.
I was able to keep 22-time push-ups for six days in a row and over
19-time push-ups for the sixteenth straight day.

After a little warm rain, it's greatly sunny again in Nagoya and
I felt a little hot in a bus on my way to the workplace.
The forecast highest temperature is 23 degrees but actually I got
a bit sweaty while walking from a bus stop.
The highest temperature might be higher due to a lot of sunshine.
It may be that this winter is much milder than usual.....
I had better not expect too much....because I fear for the shock
I will get when the expectaion goes wide of the mark.
