Push-ups :19 times
Walking :60 minutes
Standing on one foot :10 minutes each
Cigarettes :0
jogging-on-the-spot :0 minutes

I was able to keep no-smoking for seven years and two hundred and sixty-four days in a row.
I also was able to keep 19-time push-ups for the third consecutive day and
greater than 12-time push-ups for the seventy-seventh successive day.

Unbelievably, today's highest temperature in Nagoya is still highly likely
to top 35 degrees or Mousho-bi.
I really want it to be the last Mousho-bi in this summer season.
Again, the typhoon #21 is coming nearer and nearer.
Weather ladies said #21 is the ninth typhoon to be spawned in one month of August.
This reflects that this summer is abnormally hot worldwide.
Anyway, let's survive this sizzling heat and the typhoon.

Push-ups :19 times
Walking :50 minutes
Standing on one foot :10 minutes each
Cigarettes :0
jogging-on-the-spot :0 minutes

It has been seven years and two hundred and sixty-three days in a row since
I broke my bad habit of smoking.
I was able to keep at least 13-time push-ups for the seventy-sixth successive
day including the latest two days of 19-time push-ups.

Again Nagoya is now under the highest temperatuer of over 35 degrees today.
According to news reports, Nagoya has renewed the record of the number of
Mousho-bi ----- the highest temperature is more than 35 degrees ----- in a
single summer season, which means this year's summer in Nagoya has been
the hottest in the city's histroy.....OMG!
Anyway, September is just around the corner, so I think I may start
looking forward to normally autumnal weather in the near future.

Push-ups :19 times
Walking :47 minutes
Standing on one foot :10 minutes each
Cigarettes :0
jogging-on-the-spot :0 minutes

Seven years and two hundred and sixty-two days in a row have passed since I
shook off a bad habit of smoking.
I tried increasing the number of push-ups by only one time to 19 times, and
kept over 12-time push-ups for the seventy-fifth consecutive day.

It was sunny in the morning in Nagoya, but actually it suddenly started raining
in the early afternoon, and now, it's cloudy and sometimes sunny.
I have to confess that my muscle of the low back and legs has been weakened
and completely rusty.
I've decided to go to a waterfall in Gifu prefecture in September or October,
and I have to start preparing for the walking.
I managed to resume an over 40-minute walking for the first time in six days.
I really want to continue walking toward planned walking this fall.

Push-ups :18 times
Walking :a total of 30 minutes
Standing on one foot :10 minutes each
Cigarettes :0
jogging-on-the-spot :0 minutes

I have succeeded in preventing myself from smoking for seven years and two
hundred and sixty-one days in a row.
I was able to keep more than 12-time push-ups for the seventy-fourth straight
day including the most recent three days of 18-time push-ups.

It's greatly sunny in Nagoya today and very very unfortunately, the forecast
highest temperature is 37 degrees and now it's actually over 36 degrees.
This year's summer is surely abnormal.
To be honest, I feel this summer is much longer than last year.
There are maily two reasons for this.
Firstly, the end of the rainy season was about 10 days earlier than usual.
Secondly, abnormally deadly scorching heat wave has continued including
one day with the highest temperature of more than 40 degrees.
.....I've really been fed up ....Oh, I remember the best phrase which can
express my feelings now.....Enough is enough.
