"I Love the 80's" FOTD

Though I was born in May of ’79, and to young to wear makeup in th 80's (lol). I did indeed wear ponytails to the side; loud ridiculously bright neon accessories and the mix-matched converse like Punky Brewster. On Saturday’s I would get up early with my Cabbage Patch Dolls glued to my arms, eat a bowl of cereal and watch Jem, Strawberry Shortcakes, Smurfs, Care Bears and Rainbow Bright cartoons all morning. In the evenings, I would watch 227, Rags to Riches, Facts of Life, Dif’frent Strokes, the Cosby’s & who’s the Boss. Gosh, I miss those days.
