Heavy Household cleaning

Does anyone count heavy household cleaning as exercise? I just vacuumed for an hour and a half and I know I burned calories. I just don't know how to log it.

    look up "Cleaning, light, moderate effort" under cardiovascular and enter the 90 minutes

    eta: I couldn't find one for vigorous cleaning, but since MFP dramatically overestimates calorie burns anyway if you go with the moderate effort one you should be about on target.
