What Did You Accomplish On Your Island Today?

I was up late last night doing a ton of terraforming, and got a lot done. Was also completing Nook Miles+ tasks and taking mystery tour breaks every now and then and happen to stumble upon Beau and invited him as my Lazy villager. He moved in this morning!

I also sold my turnips on my island for 588 each! I can now fund my terraforming projects a little better. XD
 
I managed to catch a moray eel and a migratory locust to be added to my critterpedia. My sister already donated them to the museum.
 
  • While doing my gifting rounds, Merengue gifted me her framed photo. I'm honestly a bit disappointed in my like for Merengue. Her design is very unique and cute, but I suppose it's almost too unique for a normal personality villager for my preference...
  • Ankha taught me the Love reaction -- I've learned all 44 now.
 
I FINALLY GOT PURPLE WINDFLOWERS!!!!! Took 5 MONTHS BUT WHATEVS!! Now I just wait for the final flower; the Blue Rose.....
 
- finished my fossil assessment achieve (put off digging fossils for quite some time)
- added everything my second town had that my first town didn't to it's catalog (probably what took the most time today), still have 32 more items to do but that'll wait for tomorrow
- got another pearl from pascal today
- got marshal and rocco's photo...so it's time for one of them to go (probably rocco first bc I have too many crankies rn)
- second day of scanning in Coco, crafted her the log bench she requested
- got a virgo harp recipe from Celeste
 
I gifted shell wreaths to 3 of my villagers in hopes that they will not put the wreaths I’ve already given them at the beginning of fall.

I found two pearls and gave up on finding pascal after over 60 catches.

I’ve also been binge crafting the diy I haven’t made yet and finally found a crown (purple pansy) that I like for my character. I dislike how most of them float above your head.
 
Kind of a collection of the last few days but it was all stuff that needed to be done!

- Started rearranging all the flowers on my island and playing around with color. Before I had a big area with nothing but black flowers so I started incorporating a few other select colors in the mix. It's amazing how different it can make an area feel. It's also amazing how green mums seem to go with just about everything.

- Fixed an issue with a residential area that has been bugging me for months. It took a lot of terraforming and a couple house moves but in the end everybody ended up with a much more spacious and personalized yard.

- Tore down an awful outdoor arcade I'd made as a terraforming experiment when the game first came out. It didn't seem particularly big but once it was all gone I was left with a great spot for a little outdoor park.

- I have a third level that didn't really seem to serve much purpose so I completely redid that and made it my new shopping promenade. The area still needs some tweaks but I know those will come with time.

- Created about 20 custom designs to put on sign posts and decorate my island with. I've never been very good at making designs in AC games so it's nice to make things that actually look really cute and go well with my neighborhoods. They're not amazing works of art or anything but they still add a lot of charm and I'm proud of them.

- Finally started putting some actual effort into my house instead of every room looking like something out of Hoarders. I mostly just stuck everything in my inventory which to me sort of feels like the game equivalent of shoving dirty laundry under a bed. Still, at in the inventory is organized for whenever I want to tackle that beast.

All in all I've had a good few game days and my island is finally starting to feel lived-in. There's lots that needs to be done but I'm having fun finding ways to add little personal touches along the way.
 
After scaring away probably a dozen over the last couple months, I finally caught a giraffe stag! Also sold turnips for a decent profit, which is fun even though I don’t exactly need the money.
 
I have now caught every current bug, fish, & seafood except for the cicada shell. Which, at this point...idk if it's happening. :(
 
Removed about 10 black roses for my field of 50 and set them up to properly keep track of gold rose production.
Moved 40 blue roses to a location where they look good and don't take up valuable real estate.
Placed a useless order for islander posters, not realizing the people who have them are using custom designs on their signs.
Caught a sneaky scorpion.
Started looking for ideas for beaches that aren't a cafe for my empty beach sections and will probably do a fishing spot.
Finished my beach bar and am almost done with my arcade.

Just keep a lookout on trees during the day. They aren't going anywhere if you go up to them obviously. The one's I've found have been in the early afternoon.
 
I Got frita's photo today. Sly I am trying to get his photo so i can kick him out for drake
 
CJ showed up for the first time so I completed his challenge then sold him some fish. Bought a rush tatami from Nook's Cranny. I also crafted a well, and got in a dilemma over whether my island's well should be default colours or red and white. Honestly didn't do much today,,,
 
Accomplished a favour for one of my villagers and managed to make a profit from my turnips this week (thankfully).
 
Today, I hosted a giveaway! I also did some work decorating my home (I love decorating outside, idk why but I feel limited decorating inside) just two more rooms to do now :)
 
I did the usual daily tasks, helped Gulliver, and changed around a small spot outside my house.
 
Well...I grew purple pansies AND purple windflowers on the same day! After 5 months!!! Blessed by the RNG! Haha
I also got Raymond island hopping but that pales in comparison with getting my new hybrids
