Fell WAAAAYYYYY behind in posting, but I have kept my records in check. Here's the report for the 2nd to the 8th!
(Part 1)
7/2
• Delivered the gifts!
• Chatted with Kitty, Patty, Pekoe, and Pashmina.
• It started raining at 8pm, so I switched to rain clothes (which makes the fact that Patty gave me a raincoat funny).
• Chopped some wood and hit some rocks to replenish my material stores.
• Flick was here, and I brought him both bugs to sell and three yellow butterflies for a collectible.
7/3 (raining)
• Took the yellow butterfly model out of the mail.
• Started catching extra collectible specimens! (Namely, cicadas)
• Removed some excess flower growth from yesterday's rainfall.
• Cleaned up the cemetary by removing sticks.
• Chatted with Kitty (ended up selling her a robust cicada) and Patty (ended up selling her an earth-boring dung beetle and giving her a hammerhead shark I'd caught earlier), made small talk with Pekoe (as she was visiting Rex) and Pashmina (who was attending Slider's show)
• Found a bottle on the beach with a message from Chow inside, and now I know how to make a purple hyacinth wreath!
• Crafted items to sell.
• Checked out some custom designs to pass time (but also ended up taking an impromptu nap).
• Attended Slider's show; he played Rockin' K.K.
• Picked out and wrapped new gifts to deliver tomorrow.
7/4
• Today's HHA S-rank puts us at 238,439 points! (Yay! It went up!)
• Delivered the gifts! (Marina's was sent through the mail, as I couldn't find her no matter l where I looked.)
• Went to check on Harry, found him sleeping while standing up.
• Made small talk with Kitty and Pekoe (as the latter was visiting the former), chatted with Patty and Pashmina. I hope I'm not making any of them uncomfortable with the added attention...
• An announcement for the upcoming Fishing Tourney appeared on the bulletin board!
• Today's Beetle Fight Night at the museum pitted the Rainbow Stag against the Golden Stag. Rainbow was victorious!
• Picked out and wrapped new gifts to deliver tomorrow.
7/5
• Found a lost book right outside Gayle's front door. After asking around, I was able to return it to its owner: Pashmina.
• Delivered the gifts! (Sent Gayle's through the mail, as I couldn't find her anywhere)
• Chatted with Patty (ended up selling her a grasshopper I'd caught earlier), Kitty, and Pashmina.
• Removed some excess flower growth I'd missed yesterday.
• Made some items to sell.
• Bought a few items from the Able Sister's that I didn't have so that I could catalogue them.
• "Paid" Kicks quite an expensive visit, buying items I didn't have yet so I could catalogue them.
• Pekoe was thinking about moving away, but I was thankfully able to change her mind. (Phew!) I chatted with her a bit afterwards.
• Cleared out some storage space.
• Bought more wrapping paper.
7/6
• C.J. was back, this time with a freestyle fishing challenge. Upon completion, I brought him three Ranchu Goldfish for a collectible.
• Witnessed a conversation between Rex and Marina about rhyming games, but it got derailed as Rex's appetite awoke.
• Chatted with Pekoe, Kitty, Patty, and Pashmina (ended up selling Pashmina a tadpole I'd caught earlier).
• Pekoe asked me to catch her a bug that likes flowers; ended up having to take a ladybug out of storage. I was just glad I'd decided to catch it back then!
7/7
• Took the ranchu goldfish model out of the mail.
• Caught some bugs; some for Flick, and some to hold on to (in case my villagers decide ask me for them later).
• Redd was here today, but the only piece I didn't already have turned out to be a fake...
Instead, I walked out with a red cute tea table.
• Hit some rocks in search of a gold nugget (sadly, I was unsuccessful
)
• Chatted with Pashmina, Kitty, Pekoe, and Patty.
• Went on a treasure hunt with Pashmina, found it within 40 seconds (near the museum). Ended up recieving some full-body tights.

• Picked out and wrapped gifts to deliver tomorrow.
• Cleared out some storage space.
7/8
• Recieved a warrior statute in the mail from Rex, which I didn't have yet. After examining it thoroughly, it turned out to be a genuine piece!
• Gayle reminisced with me about her first days on the island, it made me happy listening to her recall the events of her move-in day. She said she remembers the scent of pears very vividly--which made me hungry.
• Delivered the gifts!
• Chatted with Kitty, Pekoe, Patty, and Pashmina.
• Kitty asked me if I would catch her a bug that likes sitting on flowers: luckily, I had a mantis ready and waiting for her in storage.
• Brought the warrior statue to Blathers! Another piece marked off the list!
• Pekoe sent me on a treasure hunt, and she also shortened the time limit on me; luckily, I found it in half the time. Ended up with a pineapple aloha shirt.

• Cleared out a lot of storage space.
• Bought more wrapping paper.
• Put some bells into savings and ordered some items from the Nook kiosk.
