Are you moving enough?

I am missing pottering in the garden I go out in any weather but the ground is just too muddy and wet.

Similar to you tanith. I walk every morning for about an hour. Spend about an hour on domestic stuff (the kitchen surfaces and floor always demand time).
I walk again at tea time for about 20 - 30 minutes. I have a young dog so two walks a day is beneficial for her, and for me.
It's a lovely bright day here and I'd like to do some garden tidying but everywhere is so wet that's a none starter.
Scrabble?

In lockdown again I’m worrying that the things I’m doing to keep myself occupied are all things I need to sit for. Reading, embroidery, iPad, tv mostly I sit for. I do walk for an hour or so every day and spread chores throughout the day, I’ve just been up to make the bed and in an hour I’ll go and clean the bathroom, I walk about if I’m on the phone and and sometimes have a mad few minutes marching round the house or I’ll potter around the garden but it still feels like I’m sitting for an awful long part of the day.
I usually hit my 10K steps a day but I’m sure some of that is arm movement being counted.

What do you do to stop yourself sitting too much?
