It has been ten years and three hundred and fifty-six days
in a row since I broke free from smoking.
I managed to increase the number of push-ups by only one
time to 21 times and kept over 9-time push-ups for the one
year and three hundred and fortieth straight day.

It is pretty overcast in Nagoya and actually it is dark
and cold with the lowest temperature of 3.6 degrees this
morning, which was not the coldest in the winter season.
By any measure, it is cold.
Anyway, Shiwasu starts tomorrow and I have to say this year
again that time flies so fast.

Ten years and three hundred and fifty-three days in a row
have passed since I overcame a bad habit of smoking.
I was able to keep 20-time push-ups for the tenth
consecutive day and more than 9-time push-ups for the one
year and three hundred and thirty-seventh successive day.

It is greatly sunny in Nagoya now with plenty of sunlight.
I was lucky because I didn't have to wear a pair of
raincoats while riding my bike on my way to the workplace
in spite of this morning's weather forecasts saying it
would be rainy just during the 30 minutes when I was riding
the bike.
Anyway, the colder it gets, the more alert we should stay
against cold and corona virus.

I have succeeded in preventing myself from smoking for ten
years and three hundred and fifty-two days in a row.
I was able to keep greater than 9-time push-ups for the one
year and three hundred and thirty-sixth straight day
including the latest nine days of 20-time push-ups.

Although there are some clouds in the blue sky, it is sunny
in Nagoya and I can enjoy the sunlight.
I almost got a low back pain in a stall but very luckily,
I was able to be back on safe ground.
I guess that winter cold must be the cause.
Anyway, I have to continue to be very careful about chillness.

I have been able to do without smoking for ten years and
three hundred and fifty-one days in a row.
I was able to keep 20-time push-ups for the eighth straight
day and at least 10-time push-ups for the one year and
three hundred and thirty-fifth consecutive day.

Completely unlike yesterday, it is beautifully sunny in
Nagoya today with a generous amount of sunlight.
However, the morning of a sunny day in winter is very cold
due mainly to radiational cooling.
Actually, Nagoya saw the coldest morning with the lowest
temperature of 5.8 degrees this morning.
I really have to be careful not to catch a cold or not to
have a low back pain.
