    House cleaning, moving furniture to vacuum before the carpet cleaners come and getting everything else up off the floor.

    There is an exercise listed for that under "cleaning, moderate or vigorous effort"

    Playing "runnies" with my rabbit.

    Basically, if the rabbit starts circling my feet that is a sign he wants to play runnies. You are then obligated to run back and forth across the house while he follows you. You must also occasionally get down on all fours and hop like a rabbit. You cannot stop until he stops.

    I cannot imagine how cute that must look...

    Definitely not a funny one, but surely it's gotta have some calorie burn to it...performing CPR on someone! After doing it today and being sweaty and out of breath from it made me realize that it's probably got some caloric burn to it.

    Hum... not the funny but must count for some type of exercise. 1. Bending over to turn on the computer 10 x a day. 2. Typing while sitting and rolling on the stability ball. 3. Bouncing on it and moving the mouse around in circles. 4. Pushing a grocery cart around. 5. Lifting heavy grocery bags and carrying y them into my home. 6. Running around with my cat. 7. Playing soccer with my dog.

    Chasing that naughty chicken that got out. Also, there isn't an entry for "Cleaning the Chicken Coop" so I log it as shoveling snow. :)

    Contorting into a sports bra :blushing:

    especially just after a bath

    I doubly agree, especially with the just after a bath part. That's even more of a problem if you dry off well. I've learnedit can help a little to sprinkle bath powder-s (or even corn starch) on your wet skin. But how many calories would you count for this?

    A few weeks ago I logged my pap smear. By the time my legs were out of the sturrups my thighs felt like I had been doing squats. I told my doctor I was fighting cervical cancer one calorie at a time. She didn't laugh. :blushing:

    I think that's damn funny!

    How about getting into a car that has been sitting in the sun for hours and waiting for the A/C to kick in. That has got to burn some calories somehow. *pant pant*

    Clipping my cat's claws because he hates being held and struggles/hisses/screams the entire time.

    Uh...opening my dresser drawers. My dresser was made by my great-great-grandfather and it all wood and wooden pegs, no glue or nails. It's old and warped, so opening some of them requires a sumo effort.

    May have been mentioned, but here goes.

    Rolling and tumbling in bed trying to get to sleep because you know you have that <insert what it is here> tomorrow and need to be rested for it,.

    That's gotta be worth something. :)
