There are only 2 categories in MFP under Exercise and that is light cleaning or heavy cleaning, take your pick0

lord i see people on my friends list talking about how theyve vaccumed the living room and then i see them logging it as heavy cleaning. either that one dirty *kitten* carpet youve got or you used a little hand held brush and vigarousy swept it0

Sometimes I wonder if there are just a lot of people out there who are SO sedentary that things the rest of us think of as activities of daily living look to them like herculean efforts. It's the only reasonably sane rationale I can come up with for why so many people think they should get exercise brownie points for doing the most mundane, random nonsense imaginable. Maybe vacuuming or laundry or ironing or whatever does look like exercise when your baseline is "Today I got out of bed and walked to the living room."0

Ding, Ding, Ding. We have a winner. Pick up your box of donuts on your way out. I'm sure you burned through quite a few calories typing today. Time for a treat.0 -

laundry?
What's laundry? 3 days in the same boxers crew checking in.
Oh goodness, Mr. M… If I were your wife, you would NOT be getting laid.
my ex used to see boxers as a change weekly item of clothing cos he showered twice a day he figured they wernt getting dirty
he changed to wearing a new pair daily when i bought him 10 new pairs and told him he wasnt coming near me until i did a wash load containing at least 7 worn pairs
That's gross. I was actually just kidding.
just one of his many querks from how he was brought up. in the end i had to show him the door

Ditto. Putting on a worn old bra (or socks)? Not going to happen.
