MFP Activity Level

So I'm updating my goals for MFP and when trying to determine TDEE I was wondering what 'lightly active' actually mean. I (guess) know that BMR is the amount you burn when in coma. For me that is 1800 calories. Now I told MFP to calculate for 0.5 pounds loss / week. I clicked 'lightly active' with no exercise planned. The exercise I will be doing will all be used to speed things up. But anyway am I 'lightly active' when I walk to work 5 days a week (10 mins to and from work) and cleaning in the weekends for 2 hours? Also don't take into account I'm planning to exercise.
