Creative ways to burn calories

I took a midol with sleep aid last night and slept 11 hours!!! I don't know if its the winter or what but besides the "sleeping pills" I've needed a lot more sleep than usual. So after my 11 hour slumber I went over to my friends new house to help her paint. It was a lot of well painting, bending, lifting, moving and on my www.caloriecount.com account I imput my painting as an activity and it burns mad calories, I was excited to hear this since I was HUNGRY once I got home. I like it when something I do has multi-purpose- now I have helped a friend (awesome points for me) and have a friend obligated to help me with painting in the future (score!) and I burned calories in a place other than the gym.
