Edited to add that some of you are forgetting this is a hint to one of my challenges. Don't take it so literally (for those of you who weren't kids in the late 70's and early 80's. ) Key phrase: "IF you were a kid, back then, what would you most likely be doing" on a Saturday morning. lol But, I love reading where you all were in your lives!
It's Saturday morning (1978). If you were a kid, back then, what would you most likely be doing? I know some of us were kids back then, and some of us had kids back then. LOL I also know some of us weren't even born, so you might have to do some research.

I would have been 13 then so most probably sleeping in or helping my Dad in the yard, he liked to wake us up early for that!

I was 10! First, Lucky Charms, then . . .
OCD is not an adjective. It is not a personality quirk. It is not synonymous with being organized. It is a complex and debilitating mental health illness that affects people of all ages and walks of life, and is defined by the presence of unwanted, intrusive thoughts and repetitive actions. I am an OCD warrior and I fight for my son.

Saturday morning cartoons!!! Probably Looney-Tunes - Bugs Bunny & co and Hanna Barbera - Dick Dastardly and Muttley, The Wacky Races (?), Scooby Doo, Hurricane Hollar, who else??
Happy Scrapping!

A Saturday in 1978 I was a mom to an almost 8 year old and a 4 and a half year old - both girls. So I was probably making breakfast and breaking up fights.

I was 10. Watching cartoons waiting for Mom and Dad to get up so we could have breakfast.

I would be 5-6 years old and likely eating cereal on a floral couch while watching Looney Tunes on a wood console tv with no remote

Saturday morning when I was 10 or 11 (early 60s) was definitely cartoons with younger siblings: Road Runner, The Jetsons, Popeye, Yogi Bear, Shari Lewis, Bozo the Clown, Quick-draw McGraw, and Bugs Bunny, to name a few.
In 1978, cartoons that were still popular included Yogi Bear and Popeye.

OMG! Last weekend on Catchy Comedy TV they did 48 hours of CLASSIC Looney Tunes! I had sooooooo much fun last weekend! "Duck Dodgers in the 24 1/2th Century", "Rabbit of Seville", "Feed the Kitty", "Duck Season/Rabbit Season". It was great!

Being a NICU nurse in 1978, I could have possibly been working a 12 hour shift, or just crashing into bed after working a 12 hour night shift!
If I was a kid, watching Sat. Morning cartoons in B/W. Bugs Bunny was about it!

i'm sitting in front of the tv in the living room with my bowl of crap cereal, watching my favorites-Scooby Doo and Super Friends!

That’s 3 years before I was born, but I did spend some of my childhood saturday mornings watching cartoons or reading comics.

I would have been 11 and no doubt watching the morning cartoons or out in our fields picking blackberries! (It was always a contest between us and the neighbors to get out there first to get the biggest ones)!

I think I misread this. Am I supposed to image being a kid in 1978 and not a mom in 1978? Gosh I am OLD!
