Get Fit with Housework!

Who needs weights when there are windows and tubs to be scrubbed? Yard to be raked?

I spent this weekend cleaning, and doing some yard work. We have some areas where there is no grass or dead grass. So we went to Lowes and picked up some new lawn dirt, grass seed, came home and loosened the heck out of the areas with a rake, and spread the seed. Spreading the seed, that was the easy part. Raking, carrying and spreading the dirt, those were the hard parts. Both Jeff and I have built some new arm strength.

Not to mention all the walking we did. Jeff at work then home cutting the grass. Me, walking around the house putting things away, weeding, our legs got a good workout too. Calories burned today, is a lot. And we got a lot done. Which is really good, because that means there is less to do tomorrow.
