It has been five years and 295 days in a row since I quit smoking.
I was able to keep over 15-time push-ups for the tenth straight day and
18-time push-ups for the second consecutive day.

Finally, it's sunny in Nagoya now for the first time in a long time.
I really hope such a sunny day will continute for several days and I
would like to enjoy autumnal crisp weather.
I've noticed that some leaves of cherry trees have begun falling and
the color of rice ears has almost completely turned yellow or gold.
So, it's about time I had to be careful about temperatures in the early morning.

Five years and 294 days in a row have passed since I broke my bad habit of smoking.
I managed to increase the number of push-ups by only one time to 18 times
and kept more than 15-time push-ups for the ninth successive day.

It was raining in the morning but very luckily it had stopped while I was
riding a bike on my way to the workplace.
I thought just now that it looked like it was going to start raining soon,
and in fact, it's started raining now.
According to weather reports, it will be rainy all day today.
Actually, the shortage of sunlight in September is really abnormal, I feel.

I have succeeded in preventing myself from smoking for five years and 293 days in a row.
I was able to keep at least 16-time push-ups for the eighth consecutive day
including the latest seven days of 17 times of them.

It was sunny in the morning but now it's cloudy in Nagoya.
Just as weather ladies said yesterday, it's a little humid.
Reports say the day length of September is only 20% of the normal year.
That's why I've been feeling I need more sunshine.
Anyway, I really want to see clear autumn skies.

I was able to keep no-smoking for five years and 292 days in a row.
I also was able to keep 17-time push-ups for the sixth successive day and
over 15-time push-ups for the seventh straight day.

Actually, I feel it's a little muggy today in Nagoya due maily to a
moist south wind from the high-pressure system in the Pacific.
I don't like humid weather but this time, thanks to the responsible
high-pressure system, the typhoon #17 is going to the west, not toward Japan.
Anyway, I think it's about time that autumnal weather would come to Japan.

It has been five years and 291 days in a row since I shook off a bad habit of smoking.
I was able to keep more than 15-time push-ups for the sixth consecutive day
including the latest five days of 17 times of them.

It's greatly sunny today for the first time in a very long time, I feel.
I've been long wanting bright sunshine and now I really hope such a nice
day will continue as long as possible because I'm sure I must have been
born in order to enjoy autumnal crisp weather in Japan....＾＾；；；
According to recent weather forecasts, I'm afraid my wish will not come true.
