baronessekatThe Boomboom did it and she's one of the cool kids.
IF YOU WERE A LITTLE GIRL IN THE 70'S......
!. You had that Fisher Price Doctor's Kit with a stethoscope that actually worked. Yep. Still got it too. Maybe I should point out that my aunt and uncle worked for Fisher Price so I have a LOT of the toys they made in the 70's and 80's still in good condition.
2. You owned a bicycle with a banana seat and a plastic basket with flowers on it. nope. I actually had a purple and yellow big wheels. Just found a picture of me on it too. My bike was orange. Still have the bike. Not sure about the big wheels.
3. You learned to skate with actual skates (not roller blades) that had metal wheels. Yep. While boot ones with red wheels
4. You thought Gopher from Love Boat was cute (admit it!) Nope. I was only 7 when the 80's started. But I remember watching the Love Boat and wanting to grow up and be Julie.
5. You had nightmares after watching Fantasy Island. Never watched it
6. You had either a "bowl cut" or "pixie", not to mention the "Dorothy Hamill".
People sometimes thought you were a boy. BIG TIME! I was chubby and had a "Dorothy Hamill" haircut. So I really did look like a boy when I was young.
7. You had rubber boots for rainy days and Moon boots for snowy days. No to the rubber boots, yes to the Moon Boots. Mine were grey and pink
8. You owned a "Slip-n-Slide", on which you injured yourself on a sprinkler head more than once. Hell yeah! May even still have it. I know I still have my Jarts. Found them last weekend in the shed
9. You owned "Klick-Klacks" and smacked yourself in the face more than once ! nope
10. Your Holly Hobbie sleeping bag was your most prized possession. I had a Strawberry Shortcake sleeping bag. Still have it too. You get the feeling Mom never threw anything out?
11. You wore a poncho, gauchos, and knickers. yep
12. You begged Santa for the electronic game, Simon. Yep. Didn't get it. Got a Merlin instead (that I still have and works).
13. You had the Donnie and Marie dolls with those pink and purple satiny shredded outfits, or the sunshine family Got the Donnie and Marie dolls, instantly lost the microphones that clipped into their hands. Also got a Wonderwoman doll the same year
14. You spent hours in your backyard on your metal swing set with the trapeze. The swing set tipped over at least once. we would try to tip it. but dad nailed it to the ground
15.You had homemade ribbon barrettes in every imaginable color. yep. Made them. Even had beads at the ends of the ribbons that dangled down. I'm finding them as I clean the Doma
16. You had a pair of Doctor Scholl's sandals (the ones with hard sole & the buckle). You also had a pair of salt-water sandals. Yes to the Dr. Scholls. They were blue leather. no to the salt water sandals
17. You wanted to be Laura Ingalls Wilder really bad; you wore that Little House on the Prairie-inspired plaid, ruffle shirt with the high neck in at least one school picture; and you despised Nellie Oleson! Yep. In fact I just threw out the blouse
18. You wanted your first kiss to be at a roller rink! Nope. Too young. Though I had several birthday parties at a roller rink when I was little
19. PONG! ("video tennis" ) was the most remarkable futuristic game you've ever heard of ! Hell I still have my working Atari 2600 with Pong on it!
20.Your hairstyle was described as having "wings" or "feathers" and you kept it "pretty" with the comb you kept in your back pocket. When you walked, the "wings" flapped up and down, looked like you were gonna "take off" Nope. In the 70's I had the Dorothy Hamill hair. Got feathers in the 80's.
21. You know who Strawberry Shortcake is, as well as her friends, Blueberry Muffin and Huckleberry Pie. Yep. Again, I just found some and will find more I'm sure
22. You carried a Muppets lunch box to school and it was metal, not plastic.
With the thermos inside some were glass inside and broke the first time you dropped them. Didn't have a Muppets one, but I had several metal lunch boxes. And I had/have the Muppet Show game.
23. You and your girlfriends would fight over which of the Dukes of Hazzard was your boyfriend. Nope. I had a crush on Roger Starbuck.
24. YOU had Star Wars action figures, too! Yep. Long before I knew what STar Wars was even. Still have most of them.
25. It was a big event in your household each year when the "Wizard of Oz" would come on TV. Your mom would break out the popcorn and sleeping bags! And the Sound of Music!
26. You often asked your Magic-8 ball the question: "Who will I marry.
Shaun Cassidy, Leif Garrett, or David Cassidy?" Nope, too young.
27. You completely wore out your Grease, Saturday Night Fever, and Fame soundtrack record album. Nope. I didn't own them. But the girl next door had Grease
28. You tried to do lots of arts and crafts, like yarn and Popsicle-stick God's eyes, decoupage, or those weird potholders made on a plastic loom. Yep. Even still have a Popsicle Stick God's eye christmas ornament
29. You made Shrinky-Dinks and put iron-on kittens on your t-shirts! SHRINKY-DINKS!!! Loved them!
30. You used to tape record songs off the radio by holding your portable tape player up to the speaker. You mean there are people who didn't?
31. You had subscriptions to Dynamite and Tiger Beat. Nope. Only because by the time I was old enough for magazines like that I got the subscription to "Tean Beat"
32. You learned everything you needed to know about girl issues from Judy Blume books.
(Are you there God, It's me, Margaret.) Hell Yeah!
33. You thought Olivia Newton John's song "Physical" was about aerobics. ?? its not??
34. You wore friendship pins on your tennis shoes, or shoelaces with heart or rainbow designs. Yes I did. Made my mother buy me seed beads and safety pins every time we went to a craft store.
35. You wanted to be a Solid Gold dancer. Nope, but I watched it all the time.
36. You drowned yourself in Love's Baby Soft - which was the first "real" perfume you ever owned. No, only because I was allergic to it.
37. You glopped your lips in Strawberry Roll-on lip-gloss till it almost dripped off. no, again, cuz I was allergic to the fragrence.
I am of the age where I can claim to be both a child of the 70's and the 80's. That was fun and a neat walk down memory lane. Though most of that I can still prove yes to because I'm finding it all as I clean the Doma.
