Oh man. Just spent 30 minutes laying 14 bags of mulch in the garden. I'm a hot, sweaty mess. It's 47F outside and raining, and I have 12 more bags to go. Does this count as "General Gardening"? This surely must be more like "Stone, Rolling Uphill."

    Don't know what to tell ya, other than if you REALLY wanted to know what you were burning, to get a HRM...but I'm sure you already knew that ;)

    to me, general gardening seems like pulling weeds and things like that. I think laying mulch is a lot more than general. Especially if you are breaking a huge sweat doing it.
