I have been able to keep smoke-free for eleven years
and forty days in a row.
I was able to increase the number of push-ups by 3
times from the previous record to 18 times and kept
greater than 9-time push-ups for the two years and
twenty-fourth straight day.

It is greatly sunny in Nagoya now although it was
quite cloudy early this morning and I was very afraid
that it might start raining soon.
As far as I know, unlike weather forecasts, Nagoya
did not see snowfall......maybe.
Anyway, it is good that the length of daytime is
steadily getting longer and longer and I can enjoy
a little sunlight even around 5 o'clock.

I have been able to be a non-smoker for eleven years
and thirty-eight days in a row.
I decreased the number of push-ups by four times to
20 times yesterday due mainly to the low back pain,
but I was able to keep at least 10-time push-ups for
the two years and twenty-second successive day.

It is sunny with some clouds in Nagoya and I feel that
it is a little dark....Though I can enjoy sunlight,
I need much more sunlight.
I have noticed that this winter's cold is steadily
damaging my mind and morale...It is that cold.
Usually, I can survive winter cold by thinking of
the following cherry blossom viewing season, but
I cannot do that because of the coronavirus pandemic.

It has been eleven years and thirty-seven days in a
row since I broke my smoking habit.
I was able to keep 24-time push-ups for the twelfth
straight day and over 9-time push-ups for the two
years and twenty-first consecutive day.

It is normally sunny in Nagoya, but actually I do
not feel too good, because, very unfortunately, I
have got a low back pain, which is in a slight degree.
So, I have decided to decrease the amount of exercise.
By any measure, this winter is very cold.
I felt the wind was colder today than snowy yesterday.

Eleven years and thirty-six days in a row have passed
since I kicked smoking.
I was able to keep more than 9-time push-ups for the
two years and twentieth successive day including the
latest eleven days of 24-time push-ups.

This morning, Nagoya saw snowfall for the seveth time
during this winter season.
I must have been lucky because I successfully waited
for the snowfall to stop before I left my home by bike.
By any measure, this winter is abnormal cold in Nagoya,
which normally sees snowfall just a few times.
I really want it not to snow any more.

I have succeeded in preventing myself from smoking
for eleven years and thirty-five days in a row.
I was able to keep 24-time push-ups for the tenth
straight day and greater than 9-time push-ups for
the two years and nineteenth consecutive day.

Although it was snowing yesterday while I was riding
my bike on my way to the workplace, today it was
just overcast and now it looks like it is going to
start raining or snowing, which means it is dark.
I have realize again that the root cause of
unhappiness lies in disregarding for human rights.
....or paying minimal attention to human rights
instead of trying to pay maximum attention.
