Hmm…I don’t know. My husband agrees that its a workout, but I don’t know if I’d count it. I guess if you want to, go for it. I just wish I had known we could count stuff like that.

I haven’t been recording house chores, but sometimes Mike and I elect to shovel instead of snowblow for our daily activity. Other times the snow is too wet, deep or dense to use the snowblower and by the time we’ve finished I’m sweating and in pain. It’s pretty much cardio and strength training combined! If you’d prefer not to count it, I hold no objection to that.

you should start a new page/post for the smoking and drinking debates

I don’t have a problem with making kids wait until 18 to smoke, but I do wish it were illegal for everyone to smoke in public places.. oh, and cars. I hate sitting at a stop light and having someone smoke filter into my air. Grr.

I’m not sure I agree with 16 as a drinking age. I think American kids would kill themselves either by over drinking or by driving while drunk. Maybe 18, like Canada…

Actually, yes. I don’t see the harm in letting them all drink/smoke @ 16 as well. Most of European countries drinking age is around the 16-17 mark, and they don’t seem to have any problems arise from it.

A side note on the smoking, while I may argue you should have the right to smoke, I do think that in conjunction with that, smoking should be illegal in public places though. Just because you have the right to smoke, doesn’t mean other should not have the right to be in an environment without smoke.

You certainly should have the right to if you wish, but you just can’t have the right to do it in public places where you ruin experience for others. But that’s a different topic…

Actually, I was going to ask about that. Are we counting shoveling? You keep mentioning it, but I haven’t been recording stuff like that. (I think I put massive housecleaning as a joke, but I wasn’t intending on counting it…)
