The biggest problem is in the evening as I enjoy reading in the comfort of my recliner (aaahhh!!!) But I sometimes get up and do some stretching.
I think the lymph glands have something to do with the health benefits. The lymph fluid only circulates when you move, like walking or stretching. I'll have to remember to do more getting up and stretching.
I should set my portable timer for 10 minutes when I sit down to read! I'm going to try it tonight. Then when the timer goes off I'll do this--->

I'm pretty sure we're going to bring our treadmill with us when we move to TV so-ooon. Not that we need it in the early a.m. when the temps are favorable for outside walking, but in the afternoon when it gets summertime hot. Treadmilling in the cool of air conditioning while watching CNBC partly from 12 noon to 1 p.m. -- multi-tasking <g>.
Treadmilling isn't my favorite activity, but it keeps the "juices flowing" which is good for your health!
See you soon, TVers.
