What Did You Accomplish On Your Island Today?

  • five out of six rocks in my rock garden. i dare say, i might be finally able to decorate it tomorrow! o:
  • i finished up a little fish stall near my dock; using it as a little fish & chips place, i guess. i wanted to try out the shell table and stool, and i'm rather pleased with it so far. i was also able to use the fishing spot customization for the signpost, so that was nice.
  • i added another farm to boomer's area, to make room for my pumpkins. i was going to have a separate patch, but i decided to keep the farm in one general area. roaring and ready to go for wednesday's update! (of course i'll have to replace the custom path with the dark dirt i'm sure, but that's fine)
  • still trying for those villager portraits
 
After a lot of bad luck, I finally got my first purple hyacinth! And I've been working on decorating my campsite area, bit by bit. It's not finished, and I'm still changing things around, but I'm happy with how it's coming along so far. :)
 
Today was a not-so-busy day, I just didn't have time to play for long. But I still got a few things done:
  • Gifts to all villagers
  • Visit Kicks, Ables, and Nooks, bought some new outfit stuff more suited to fall/winter
  • Did all nook miles+ goals that give double rewards, and a few that gave just regular rewards
  • Dug up all fossils and had them assessed. Sadly, no ammonites or amber for my fossil fence.
  • Hit all the rocks
  • Shook all the trees and found all the wasps, sold them.
  • Watched Hornsby play piano, Alfonso sleep under a palmtree, delivered a package to Patty from Hopper (she'll be the next one going so I don't mind 'ruining' her with random villager gifts), and saw a double rainbow.
 
I got my campsite terraformed and decorated today. Its a small accomplishment but im very happy with it.
 
Yesterday:
  • Bought turnips
  • Island hopped for a new resident
  • Went to K.K. concert (K.K. Jazz)
  • Invited Tasha after hours of otherwise fruitless island hopping

Today:
  • Welcomed Tasha to town
  • Helped Gulliver
 
I moved my flowers even though didn’t feel like it and now am going to make some adjustments in preparation for the pumpkins 😊. Also adjusted a cliff behind Roscoe’s house and started thinking of part of my idea (not sure what exactly I want to do since I don’t have the halloween furniture, but am seeing what I can do with what I have).
 
I have fallen extremely far behind in posting again, and I'm admittedly a bit ashamed of that 😓
Today, I'm going to try and get myself caught back up again.

9/23
• There was a visitor at the campsite today...but I never got around to seeing them... (this is due to the fact that I'd started work IRL on a haunt attraction that was due to open on 10/1; they needed help, and I volunteered. I was too tired to play afterwards 😅 )

• Picked out and wrapped a gift for Marshal's birthday tomorrow.
 
I got the last stamp for crafting tools.
Made my space cafe a bit more spacey. Looks nice.
 
I bought 17 pirate barrels today and then I realized I didn't have a plan where to put them. So I just shoved them in random corners temporarily. Then I made the small children being shipped in barrels comment to my mother again and she got angry. When will she learn not to ask me silly questions?
 
Today I...
  • finally saw celeste on my island - got the libra scale DIY
  • removed the patterns on the floor around my black rose that I've been watering with a golden watering can after realizing that it will make gold roses rather than turn gold itself
  • made space for a tiny stream that connects my two rivers, so now the east river mouth can connect to the south one
  • cleaned out my storage some more
  • organized my flowers some more
  • bought rugs and mysterious wallpaper + flooring from Saharah
  • went through the whole DIY furniture list and favorited things that I could craft and add to my island later when I get bored
  • started keeping track of my turnip prices
  • dug up fossils for the first time in forever
  • talked to all of my villagers except Ruby who I somehow didn't see at all
 
I moved my muscle beach to another part of the island and made a piano bar on the beach. I also made a pumpkin patch and pumpkin carving booth. I am soo ready for the update!! 😁
 
Not today technically, but yesterday I took down all the cliffs on the east side of my island, and moved all the villager houses. I am bored, and really don't know what I want to do with my island. I also put all my flowers by group on the now empty side of my island and sold off any I had over 10. There are a LOT of flower variations in this game and I only want 10 of each type (except gold roses because they are worth a lot when funds get low)
Now I have to figure out how I want to display these flowers. I had originally had mixes of them in each villager yard but I nixed that idea and put their houses close together so they don't have individual yards that are fenced in anymore. I really don't know what I am doing with my island at all. I have changed it and moved things so many times now.
