With all the rainfall, I’ve been sitting all day

Why, my friend? Stand up! Move about!

I’ve realized you can only walk around the house doing chores so much, or the more likely being stuck inside with monsoon rains outside might be making me tense lol. Maybe it’s hurricane Hillary.

That's fair. Probably not helpful at the moment but i got a sit or stand desk awhile back and it's terrific. Sometimes I don't use it enough but recently I saw a video that anything you enjoy sitting you can usually enjoy standing. Like my controller is wireless I can stand instead of sit ony couch. I can eat dinner aty kitchen counter instead of sitting every night. I can have a drink with friends while standing, etc. Even without a standing desk that's probably true for you as well. If you put on movie or a game stand to watch some of it. It feels weird at first but I stand probably 2/3 of my day now. Try it out!

I’ll give this a try, it does sound strange but might be a nice change of pace. Right now I’m worried the pools going to overflow from all of tonight’s rain. 😣

That does sound like a big concern. In that case, feel free to add nervous pacing to your standing routine. I do not recommend standing in the pool currently, maybe wait on that one for a bit!

I know, it’s still raining but I have a siphon going to empty the pool. Earlier it was filling faster than it was emptying, and I can’t see the pool from the house now that it’s dark. It’s gotten quieter, so hopefully there’s no cause for concern.

I remember being scared imagining bones coming out of there like that when I first saw this as a kid. It seems that it still scares me.
