I have succeeded in preventing myself from smoking for six years and two hundred and twenty-eight days in a row.
I kept more than 15-time push-ups for the one hundred and seventy-fifty consecutive day
including the latest twenty-two days of 25-time push-ups.

It has been cloudy in Nagoya and I was caught in a little rain on my way to the workplace by bike.
Now it has stopped but looks like it's going to restart raining soon.
It's humid, but actually very luckily, I feel the tempeatures are much milder than usual.
Weather ladies say the predicted highest temperature will be 30 or 31 degrees, which makes me
take a brief break against scorching summer heat.
Anyway, let's survive these two weeks, the hottest period of the year.

I have been able to do without smoking for six years and two hundred and twenty-seven days in a row.
I was also able to keep 25-time push-ups for the twenty-first successive day and at least
16-time push-ups for the one hundred and seventy-fourth straight day.

It was dark and cloudy in the morning in Nagoya and I noticed that cicadas were
shrilling pretty loudly in the morning around my house.
The life of a cicada after breaking out of the ground is as short as eight days, I heard.
Anyway, I may have to enjoy their shrilling because it's only druing this time of the year.

I was able to keep no-smoking for six years and two hundred and twenty-six days in a row.
I was also able to keep over 15-time push-ups for the one hundred and seventy-third
consecutive day including the most recent twenty days of 25 times of them.

It was sunny in the morning in Nagoya but actually it's raining and very dark.
It looks like it's going to start raining so heavily.
Again, I have to say the callous people should disappear as soon as possible.
They are apparently aiming to occupy the common space which should originally
be used by four tenants.
I suspect that possibly the other tenants except me have already given up.
I would like to say, "Let's fight against such callous people."

It has been six years and two hundred and twenty-five days since I gave up smoking.
I was able to keep 25-time push-ups for the nineteenth successive day and more than 15-time
push-ups for the one hundred and seventy-second straight day.

It's actually hot and muggy, and the sound of cicadas' buzzing seems to be weaker than usual.
I feel that the precipitation during this rainy season was quite low, and if I'm not mistaken,
Nagoya had only a few rainy days in the period and there were more sunny days instead of
cloudy days than usual.....
So, I'm sure I've already had enough summer days by now.
I will feel that this summer will be much longer than usual.

Six years and two hundred and twenty-four days in a row have passed since I quit smoking.
I was able to keep at least 16-time push-ups for the one hundred and seventy-first
consecutive day including the latest eighteen days of 25-time push-ups.

It's cloudy and sometimes rainy in Nagoya.
Interestingly, it looks like one of the rainy season days though it ended yesterday and
it had been unlike rainy season's days in Nagoya.
Anyway, it must be lucky that rain clouds are blocking the scorching sunlight.
Theoretically, today is the hottest day of the year, which means we have entered
the period to be the most careful about heat attack.

I'm very afraid I have little time to be here today again.

I have succeeded in preventing myself from smoking for six years and two hundred and twenty-two days in a row.
I was able to keep 25-time push-ups for the sixteenth successive day and over 15-time
push-ups for the one hundred and sixty-ninth straight day.

It's a little cloudy in Nagoya but very very humid and I began usiing an air-conditioner
while sleeping because I was forced to awake due to the sweltering night.
I make a point of setting the air conditioner's temperature at 29 degrees for cooling.
I've learned that if you set it at under 28 degrees, you will catch a cold.
And actually, the 29-degree setting brings sound sleep to me.
