Me too... my stillness is activity, but it is activity that I enjoy. I find that my mental state is much better when I have constructive things to do, especially when my anxiety ramps up.

Your day sounds a lot like mine except I work outside of the home as well. Funny how your entire day can be gone in an instant - poof!

As long as you feel like you are having some sort of down time and you have activities that recharge you, I think you are fine. I personally do not believe that meditation is for everyone, although it can be very helpful for some.

Hmm. Maybe I have a problem too! LOL!
