Push-ups:17 times

Five years and 290 days in a row have passed since I overcame a bad habit of smoking.
I was able to do a total of 80-minute walking yesterday for the first
time in eight days after the persistent rain caused by typhoons.

Still, now, it's quite cloudy in Nagoya and it's a little dark.
It looks like it's going to start raining pretty soon...maybe now.
I'm planning to do a walking in an unfamiliar town in the near future.
So, I really hope it will not be rainy on the day....but actually
according to yesterday's weather forecasts, it'll be rainy....heck.
Anyway, I'll have to be prepared for the occasion....
I mean it may be cloudy on the day.

Push-ups:17 times
Walking :0 minutes
Standing on one foot :10 minutes each
Cigarettes:0
jogging-on-the-spot :30 minutes


I have succeeded in preventing myself from smoking for five years and 289 days in a row.
I was able to keep 17-time push-ups for the third successive day and
at least 16-time push-ups for the fourth straight day.

It was raining in the early morning but it's stopped now and still quite
cloudy in Nagoya, which looks like it's going to start raining again.
Weather officials say it'll be sunny tomorrow and the highest temperature
may reach 30 degrees.
To be honest, I want some sunshine and just a little summere heat because
I've felt a little cold these rainy days.
Anyway, this year's summer must have ended and I can enjoy autumnal weather.

Push-ups:17 times
Walking :45 minutes
Standing on one foot :11 minutes each
Cigarettes:0
jogging-on-the-spot :0 minutes


I was able to keep no-smoking for five years and 288 days in a row.
I also was able to keep more than 15-time push-ups for the third consecutive day
incuding the most recent two days of 17 times of them.

I feel it's a little cold in Nagoya today despite the predicted highest temperature
of 25 degrees.
It was raining while riding my bike on my way to the workplace but now it's stopped.
Even so, still it looks like it's going to start raining again pretty soon.
Anyway, I want some sunshine tomorrow.
The past two weeks are like those in the rainy season in June.
The autumn rain front is really persistent, I feel.

It has been five years and 287 days in a row since I got rid of my smoking habit.
I tried increasing the numbe of push-ups by just one time to 17 times,
and kept over 15-time push-ups for the second straight day.


After the typhoon #16, I hoped it would be greatly sunny but actually
today it's raining again.
The influences in Nagoya from the typhoon were not severe, or almost nothing, I feel.
I really think it's very lucky that Nagoya could avoid damage from the past five typhoons.
Anyway, I really want to enjoy walking....so, please clear up as soon as possible.

Push-ups:16 times
Walking :20 minutes
Standing on one foot :11 minutes each
Cigarettes:0
jogging-on-the-spot :0 minutes


Five years and 285 days in a row have passed since I broke my smoking habit.
I mangaed to resume push-ups from 16 times and hope to continue them
as long as possible.

The typhoon #16 is steadily coming nearer and nearer to Nagoya, but
actually I think the rain has not been so hard so far.
Weather ladies say it'll be raining very heavily in the evening.
I may have to say it's still lucky that the typhoon will pass through
the right side of Nagoya, which means its winds will be weakened.
Anyway, I really hope it'll pass without any accidents.

I have succeeded in preventing myself from smoking for five years and 285 days in a row.
I didn't do push-ups yesterday simply because I was busy re-install Widows 10.
I hope to resume push-ups as soon as possible.

It's sunny in the morning but now it's started raining again.
The typhoon #16 is likely to pass a more southerly path than originally expected.
If so, I would like the high-pressure system in the Pacific Ocean to get weaker
and the typhoon to much more deflect from Japan.
Anyway, I have nothing to do but pray that there will be no casualties or accidents.
