What Did You Accomplish On Your Island Today?

A summary of work on my island for the past month:
- I essentially flattened and tore my island to bits. I couldn't remember what my plans were to progress with my island and I didn't like where it was going, so I've started rebuilding almost from scratch.
- I've more or less finished my campsite area, which was the only part of my island that I liked. I've fully decorated it now.
- I've moved 6/10 of my villagers houses, once again, liking the new layout much more now. Just gotta figure out where to put the remaining 4 villagers.
- flattened the area around my own house, not really sure where I want it situated for now lol
- cleaned up the excessive amount of flowers
- upgraded my storage and unlocked everything on Harvs Island
- created a mini plaza outside resident services
- created a beachside pool/relaxation area which is almost complete
- done a lot of trading collecting recipes

Tl;Dr I've probably done more work on my island in the past month compared to the past 2 years lol
 
Morning clean-up (sticks, weeds, etc.)
Finished my kitchen remodel. The house is updated for spring now.

This evening I'll check in with my villagers, hit the shops, and sell some fish to CJ.
I still have to update my treehouse to spring, but I might wait until tomorrow for that.
 
Island hopping today I finally got Apollo. After going through numerous cows and apes, there he was. This might be the first time out of all the Nook Miles Tickets I've used he's shown up; if he has prior I don't remember. The downside is that I still want Genji and one of my other villagers will have to go to make room for him.

Wednesday, March 9th:

Being honest, wasn't entirely motivated to play today, but kinda forced myself to start up the game and just enter braindead mode and just do random stuff. Few things I managed to do:
  • Bought out some Nook Miles stuff now that I have a completed Resident Services building.
  • Did Nook Miles+ tasks as they came.
  • Made 50 fishing bait (ugh)
  • Caught a few bugs and fish for the museum
  • Got stalked by Skye giving me several gifts over the coarse of two hours.
  • Made the Campsite (pls give me Kyle, or just a wolf in general)
Now I'm just kinda vibing, might go for some more fishing bait tonight to make it an even 100.
 
Finished Azalea’s jungle ruin house area and set up a cozy little tea area as well. I also made a convenience store-type of building on the other side of the island! Hopefully I will be done with my island this month 😳

Been a bit distracted lately; I've been working on my Pokemon BDSP progress and I keep forgetting to post 😅


3/8
• Isabelle announced that Kicks was visiting today; I got to buy some items I didn't have catalogued yet. I also made a mad dash for the Able Sisters to check out their inventory before closing.
• Recieved two tailor's tickets in the mail from Label.
• Chatted with Rhonda (out for a stroll), Kitty (wandering around near the airport), and Pekoe (chilling at home), but never ran into Patty...
• Checked on the rock spot; it's not back yet... 😥
• Found a bottle on the beach with a recipe inside for making pumpkin soup!
• Visited Paradise Planning, but didn't get anything done. Did get a thank-you gift from Pietro, though.

3/9
• Isabelle advised us on what to do should we find someone unconscious on the beach; it turned out that Gullivarrr had washed up on shore again. I found the phone stuffed somewhere near the southern safety nets.
• Found a gyroid on the beach!
• Chatted with Rhonda (out for a stroll), Pekoe (crafting a rose crown), and Patty (shopping at the Able Sisters), but I never ran into Kitty...
• Checked on the rock spot; it's STILL not back... 😰
• Noticed a tarantula lurking around the plaza fountains, but it scurried off before I could capture it.
• Visited the Roost and ordered a cup from Brewster.
• I'd initially planned on visiting Reese and Cyrus today, but due to getting distracted by other things, they had already turned in for the night. Instead, I visited Paradise Planning and proceeded to check out some custom designs.
 
Despite me feeling sick this is what I did on the 2nd island:

1. I finally got the Able Sisters to be built
2. I completed Harvs Plaza

not much happened.
 
Happy Mario day, everybody!



3/10
• Isabelle mentioned that C.J. was visiting today. I brought him three freshwater Goby (gobies?) for a collectible.
• Recieved a Pirate rug in the mail from Gullivarrr.
• Dug up the gyroid fragment from yesterday; retrieved a Ringoid!
• Found a lost bag in Gayle's yard. After asking around, I was able to return it to its owner: Pekoe.
• Chatted with Rhonda (chilling at home), Patty (hanging out at home), Kitty (visiting Rex), and Pekoe (out for a stroll).
• Update: THE ROCK IS STILL NOT BACK 😰
• Was startled by the sudden appearance of shooting stars! I made wishes when I could.
• Found a bottle on the beach with instructions inside for making a wooden music box!
• Visited the Roost and ordered a cup from Brewster.
• Visited Harv's island, finally got around to buying the new stock, and also customized a few things with Reese and Cyrus.
• Visited Paradise Planning for a bit. Found a bottle on the beach with instructions inside for making a glowing-moss headband!
 
I finally finished designing the inside of my house, all 6 rooms!
Visited all my villagers, Nook’s Cranny, Able Sisters, Kapp’n, and worked on placing my paths more.
I also explored the custom design app and found a lot of cute dresses and saved them. And explored a few random dream towns.
 
March 10 🪲

-Checked the mail, got a letter and some glasses from Cookie
-Redd was visiting so I stopped by his boat to see if he had anything I wanted, and he actually had some real art that I needed! I purchased a proper painting and an office cabinet
-Found the glowing spot and planted a money tree
-Talked with my villagers
-Gave wrapped fruits to Ken and he gave me a Robot Hero Tee in return, changed in to it right away
-Stopped by Nooks, bought a cruiser bike and a dreamy unicorn toy
-As part of my "actually work on the museum" plan I finally caught and donated a mole cricket! I play with the sound off quite often so this actually did take me going out of my way to catch one
 
I used/made a qr code similar to the museum sign from NewLeaf. I have a close enough qr pattern for the sign art, the problem is it's kind of hard to pinpoint something that exactly looks like this for a furniture piece. I narrowed it down to poster stand, wide display stand, and painting stand (when you display qrs)

The poster stand is kind of smaller than I would hope and the wide display stand is nice, but way to big. If the bottom part was chopped off it would be great. Kind of disappointing, but I'm going to go back and see if I can make something else work.

March 11 🐟

-Checked the mail, got a letter from Tipper and the painting I bought from Redd
-Stopped by the museum to donate said painting
-Visited both shops
-Talked to my villagers
-Gave wrapped fruits to Étoile and she gave me some wallpaper
-Harvested a fully grown money tree
-Decided to go on a Kapp'n tour today, he brought me to a snowy winter island
-Completed some Nook Miles tasks
-Stopped by the Roost for a coffee
-Spent more time working on my creatures list, I finally caught a barreleye! Don't know why that one took me so long, but it's another one for the museum 😄
 
3/11 (short day)
• Ended up logging on late, so I didn't get to check the shops 😖
• Witnessed Rex trying to catch a tiger beetle in the plaza, didn't work out too well.
• Isabelle mentioned that Flick was visiting today; I brought him three red dragonflies for a collectible.
• Took the freshwater goby model out of the mail.
• Ran into Patty outside, but not anyone else.
• Briefly visited Paradise Planning, found a bottle on the beach with instructions inside for making a wooden table mirror.
 
Today, I finally terraformed a pond and waterfall by my house that looks pretty natural. I also visited a few dream towns.
I’m keeping my town somewhat natural, but I’m surprised to see that a majority of towns I visit are heavily terraformed with tons of items outside. It’s not really what I want, but some of them do look really cool.
 
I had some insane fishing luck today. In nearly 2 years of playing NH on-and-off, I had caught only 3 barreleye and 3 mahi-mahi the entire time. Today I caught 3 barreleye and 4 mahi-mahi in a little over an hour. Now I can finally get those models from C.J.
