Island Living: A Photo Journal

[CrankyCupcake]

How is it that I have Marshal for nearly two years on my island and yet this is the first time I'm getting this story? This game sure works in mysterious ways. (That, or my memory is much worse than I remember it to be.)

Look who I found singing their little hearts out at the plaza today!

They put a smile on my face. I needed that because I did some catharctic crying today. I love it when I watch anime and it slaps me in the face and tells me my self-professed stone cold heart is a total sham!

Caught a ladybird in flight!

And Kitty sent me a pot of cat grass with this letter.

And I've been growing tillandsia aka air plants for the past few years as a stress relieving hobby. Today, I found out I'm going to be a plant grandma again!

We had an emergency situation this morning.

His gross levels were through the roof! He was delirious!

But all's well that ends well. I force-fed gave him medicine and he made a miraculous recovery.

And then he said something which made me think the medicine hadn't worked.

Naaah. Raymond is back.

Note to self: Give Raymond's home a makeover soon. This is still his default interior. (With my gifts of a bug, magazines and a chess set being displayed.)

Claude and I might have been just a tad too loud at the Roost today.

 

[CrankyCupcake]

Raymond never said this to me before!

No one can keep up with Fuchsia.

Shino was trying to solve the impossible mystery of cookie crumbs all over the flowers in Joey's garden.

Shino came to live on Littlestar on March 24. Today, she gave me her photo.

At last!

I had a lot of fun showing Marshal around.

I'm in love with that expression he made while reading in my library. TOO CUTE.

Yesterday, Marshal visited me. Today, Wendy is a tad jealous.

Is that a conniving face or what. It totally reminds me of this one that Dom made.

Some islanders drink too much coffee are drawn to group activities...

... while others prefer a quieter way to pass the day.

 

[CrankyCupcake]

I tried.

What a dilemma for Joey! Continue with his workout routine or make a new bug friend?

Claude doesn't sing at the plaza often so when he does, I always stop and listen for a while.

Raymond brought me terrible news this morning!

I went to see Fuchsia (with medicine for her in my pocket, of course) and, sure enough, it was downright alarming to see how dispirited she was by the thought of having to forgo free pizza.

PS. Happy to say that she made a miraculous recovery after taking the medicine!

Flick visited us today. I sold him some pretty cool bugs and he agreed to being stalked photographed.

I think Shino and Fuchsia are best friends now.

The Round Glasses Appreciation Society had a meeting today.

 

[CrankyCupcake]

I think the kids and I all had a little too much coffee today. Which reminds me. Happy Mother's Day to all mums out there! I miss my mum. I love her.

In other news, Marshal was feeling camera-shy. I think he ran out of his favourite shampoo.

Marshal was pondering a Mary Lasswell quote Raymond had sent him. It said: "You can't keep a squirrel on the ground."
