Daily Routine

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


I have succeeded in preventing myself from smoking for eight years and one
hundred and sixty-seven days in a row.
I was able to keep over 14-time push-ups for the sixth straight day including
the most recent two days of 19-time push-ups.

It is greatly sunny today again in Nagoya and it is very hot with the
predicted highest temperature of 33 degrees and tomorrow 34 degrees.
It is abnormally high and I really have to guard against heat attack.
Today I've decided not to do push-ups because I think there is a possibility
that doing push-ups minght be one of the main causes of muscle pain in my
low back, which has been here for these several days.

I have been able to do without smoking for eight years and one hundred and
sixty-six days in a row.
I was able to increase the number of push-ups again by only one time to 19
times and kept more than 14-time push-ups for the fifty successive day.

It is greatly sunny in Nagoya and there are no clouds in the blue skies
today again with the forecast highest tempearture of 32 degrees, which
might be the highest for May.
Very sadly, I've had a canker pain for three days for the first time in about
10 month, and also have had a low back muscle pain.
I really hope a peaceful day without any pain will come very soon.

I was able to keep no-smoking for eight years and one hundred and sixty-
five days in a row.
I was also able to increase the number of push-ups by just one time to 18
times and keep greater than 14-time push-ups for the fourth consecutive day.

It is greatly and beautifully sunny in Nagoya today.
Especially, when I was about to leave home for the workplace by bike,
there were completely no clouds in the blue skies.
However, I'll have to be very careful about heat attack because weather
ladies say the highest temperature in Nagoya is forecast to top 30 degrees.
I'm sure May is getting hotter and hotter year after year.

Daily Routine

Push-ups ：１７ times
Walking ： a total of ３０ minutes
Standing on one foot　：１０ minutes each
Cigarettes ：０
jogging-on-the-spot　：１５ minutes


It has been eight years and one hundred and sixty-four days in a row
since I broke my bad habit of smoking.
I was able to increase the number of push-ups by only one time from
the previous day to 17 times and kept at least 15-time push-ups for
the third straight day.

It is beautifully sunny in Nagoya with the predicted highest temperature
of 29 degrees, which is almost Manatsu-bi or tropical day.
Very sadly, there is still a pain in my low back, but I'm sure this
pain is not sprained lower back but muscle ache.
I really hope that the pain will completely disappear as soon as possible.

Push-ups ：１６ times

I have a tight schedule today and cannot afford to stay here any longer.

Eight years and one hundred and sixty-two days in a row have passed
since I broke my bad habit of smoking.
I was able to resume push-ups from 15 times yesterday and I hope to
increase the number little by little.

To my relief, I was also able to resume jogging-on-the-spot from 8
minutes after the pain in my right knee and low back.
To my surprise, it was very very windy in the morning in Nagoya while
I was riding my bike on my way to the workplace.
The wind was so strong that I felt as if a typhoon were coming.
Well, I am sure I may do something interesting to celebrate a success
in the 4-hour walking on May 9th......what shall I do?

I have succeeded in preventing myself from smoking for eight years
and one hundred and sixty-one days in a row.

I resumed standing-on-one-foot from 10 minutes each last night
simply because the pain in my low back had almost completely gone.
I must have been very lucky since the low back pain was a minor injury.
I would really like to resume push-ups and jogging-on-the-spot as soon
as possible as I see how the condition of my low back is going.
But I have to renew my awareness that carelessness is the greatest enemy.
