I was all set to do the WATP videos for the first time in three weeks and its dead!! (or at least in a coma) It is flashing 02 and won't eject the tape that is in it. UGH!! I was so mad. But then my 10yo DD says to me "I'll walk with you." So she, my 12yoDD and I walked down to the middle school, played a little soccer, and then of course walked back. So all in all, it was about 30 mins of "interval" exercise.
 
Try unplugging it for a few minutes and plugging it back in again and try to eject the tape. Not saying it still isn't dead but we had problems with several VCR's and that at least got us to be able to get the tape out!! Sorry it died. I know how you feel. Ours is dead and we are probably not rep[lacing it!! We have a dvd player so I got 2 differetn excercise dvd's to keep me going for now!!!! Good for you getting out and alsking with your Daughter. at lest you didn't use the VCR as an excuse!!
 
Kudos to you for not allowing your VCR breakdown give you an excuse not to Exercise!:)

Weather permitting I so enjoy walking outside with my dog (and kids if there is no school) than any other form of exercise:D
Although I often get told by others I walk too fast - Hey I grew up in Boston and its either walk fast or be trampled;)
 
That is great that you still got your excersize in!! :) Way to go!!

We often do the same thing, of course, it is only about 5 minutes to the school, but once there, I play tag with my kids and they love it! :) It is great excersize for all of us! :)
 

Eeek! Sending pixie dust for a new VCR right away! :)

BLESS YOUR DAUGHTER'S HEART! That was just the sweetest thing to do! I am really glad you got some exercise in!!! Maybe you guys will add this to your routine? :) If you go again, enjoy!!!! Nothing like keeping the whole family together for some fun and healthy play time!!! :)
 
Believe me I wanted to just forget the exercise last night. I am so glad that my DD said that because if she hadn't I wouldn't have done anything.

I tried unplugging it and plugging it back it but it didn't work. :( So I am off to Walmart to get a new one, after work. So tonight I will be back at it. I did so much better when I was exercising.
