What Did You Accomplish On Your Island Today?

So i reset recently which I’ve actually really enjoyed. Today I hit three stars and got KK Slider to come for his first visit:) hoping to nail my weather seed soon bc I really want to start getting some Celeste diys
 
- checked the mail
- ordered some items
- talked to Rudy
- went fishing
- went swimming
- dug up some fossils
- removed some weeds
- organized some pending orders
- sold some stuff to Nook's
- chopped a couple trees
- hit some rocks with a shovel
 
I'm starting to flatten my island. It's gonna take a long time. I have so many flowers that have overtaken the cliffs so I have to remove all of those first, then the trees. That's pretty much all I did today
 
-Participated in the Bug Off event. It's pretty grindy but not as much as the fishing tournament since I don't have to frantically run around trying to find manila clams to craft into fish bait
-Caught some bees and orchid mantis that I'm saving for Flick to make models
-Somehow the stuff I got the most from the Bug Off is the toy centipede which I'm not exactly overjoyed about since I don't like bugs and definitely don't want it in my home/on my island. I'll probably sell them to other people or just Nook's Cranny as fast as possible. Grinded for a couple of hours till I got the silver trophy. I didn't have the time, patience or the battery to grind for the gold one.
-Bought a lot of furniture
-Made a list of arts that I don't have in the museum yet
-Caught my first scorpion! Only knew how to catch it after reading through a tutorial online
-Bought a dynamic painting for my museum
-My favorite activity now is knocking on each villager's house (if they're in their houses) and see if they're crafting. If so I go get a recipe or if not I leave immediately and get the curiosity question mark reaction
-Popped a balloon but the area beneath it is all furniture so the present disappeared :/

If she's got a heart motif, that's Gayle! One of my favorites for sure! 💜

That's cool! I haven't had to chance to really talk to her yet (since it's Bug Off day so there aren't much dialogues) but I'll go talk to her & check out her house tomorrow.

Over the last few days:

  • opened the mail
  • said goodbye to Judy and went island hopping to replace her - it started of quite badly with a few repeats but soon improved and I found Vivian on around the 30th NMT, I love the wolves and snooty villagers and had been looking for her on every island hopping trip I’d been on so really pleased to finally find her :giggle:

-The flowers directly outside of my house duplicated! This is always nice to see when I log in, now I only need one more to fill up this area so I watered the flowers again
-Checked the mail, got a letter from Erik
-Had to chop down some trees, I was trying to grow them only to medium size but I didn't play this weekend and they got too big. So I chopped them and replanted new saplings
-Harvested a money tree
-Kicks was in the plaza so I checked out what he had for sale
-Visited both shops
-Talked to my villagers
-Gave wrapped fruits to Flo, still no photo :(
-Completed a few Nook Miles tasks
 
-The rando villager from yesterday turned out to be Judy :D I don't love her enormous sparkly eyes but I'll see in the future
-Did two touch trades today. Funny enough neither of them read the 'Touch Trade' and both thought it was normal trading. But oh well one already picked up the item so it was practically a free touch trade lol. The other offer was pretty high so I just let him keep the item
-Order some more items
-Leif came. Bought some holly starts and one of each color of flower seeds
-Looked around and didn't see any lily of the valley
-Sold a black lucky cat. I don't like the black one so I might go and buy a white one sometime in the future

-Someone came to the campsite and it turned out to be Mira. Her personality seems to be great but I have my full villagers and I'm not ready to let any of them go yet

-It's Erilk's birthday today 🥳 I forgot to get him something lol so I gathered up my very best fruit and headed straight to his house. Tipper was there celebrating with him 😊

-Gave wrapped fruits to Flo
-Spent some time trying to catch some bugs I need to catch
 
I spent a loooonnnggg time terraforming my older island to give it a makeover. I think eventually, it will be nice but it's going to be a long haul. *sigh*
 
Today on my Island I set up the three starter homes and furnished them all both inside and out. I also chose where to build my first bridge.

Tomorrow my museum will be built and I have a large amount of insects and fish to donate. Very glad I reset and am taking things slow this time around :)
 
-It's Erik's birthday! I went to his house and checked a couple of times: two times were Rodeo and one time was Bea celebrating in his house
-Planted some flowers around the plaza
-Built a marketplace-ish location near my beach - it has new year's noodles and other food put onto the stalls and then I put a row of throwback mitt chairs in front of the stalls. Was thinking of ordering public benches but decided I didn't want to wait
-did some trading
-Someone asked me to pay of their debt (which I specifically said was bridge or incline debts) a couple of days ago but we never found a good time when both of us are available. Well, today happened to be the day and then they were surprised to hear that I was going to pay for their bridge debt - apparently they wanted me to pay off their home loan. I said I can either give you the equivalent amount of bells for the most expensive bridge or I'll just pay for the bridge itself and then they said okay I can use a bridge and presumably put up a bridge right then. The moment I got to their island they messaged me and said they had to go and literally kicked me off the island right after I walked out of the airport building. I didn't have the patience to wait a couple more days and put up with more shenanigan so I just called it off.
-Bought an ironwood cupboard for my new kitchen but I don't think I have any space in there
-Saharah came! I bought a firework wallpaper, another crosswalk flooring :/, a brown shaggy rug and a heart shaped rug.

-Watered the flowers by my house
-Visited both shops, I bought some Traditional monope pants in two colours and a Belted dotted dress I don't think I've ever seen these items in the shop before so that was nice
