What Did You Accomplish On Your Island Today?

Yesterday I only got to play briefly but I managed to replant all my crops in my new farm area which is really coming together, I just need to add the star fragments and mushroom portion of my farm for it all to come together. Then I just need to replant all my fruit trees for my orchard which I'm hoping will look good surrounding Diana's house to make the area look magical.
 
March 13 🦀

-Checked the mail, got my HHA score and a letter from Pecan
-Found a lost item right outside my house which also happened to belong to Pecan so I returned that to her, she gave me a school uniform with ribbon
-Visited both shops but didn't buy anything today
-Found the glowing spot and planted a money tree
-Talked to my villagers
-Ken was crafting open wooden shelves so I was able to learn a new recipe!
-Went on a Kapp'n tour
-Gave out wrapped fruits to Étoile and Ken, no photos from either of them yet
-Completed some Nook Miles tasks
-Caught a spider crab for the museum!! More progress 😄
 
I finished the dlc and I redid Hazel's room so that it matched her cute layout in NewLeaf with the patchwork series. Next on the list is Butch. His home is just awful and needs to go lol.

Fell behind on my posting again 😅


3/12 (raining)
• Isabelle announced that Slider was back in town; since I got to work early today, I'd have to come back later for the show.
• Took the red dragonfly model out of the mail. Also recieved a DAL Pilot Jacket from Dodo Airlines.
• Found a gyroid fragment on the beach!
• Rock update; still nothing 😱
• Chatted with Patty (crafting a rose wreath) and Pekoe (out for a stroll), but never ran into Kitty or Rhonda...
• Crafted some items to sell.
• Visited the Roost and ordered a cup from Brewster. Got to order with pigeon milk today!
• Bought an outdoor kitchen from Nook's Cranny, as I didn't have it catalogued yet.
• Visited Harv's island and customized some items with Reese and Cyrus. Got to clean out some storage space in the process.
• Visited Paradise Planning and did a little "remodeling"; I went back to Ione's house and fixed the problem with the wall decor in her bathroom (that went unnoticed the first time until after I'd already finished my work...).
• Went back home and attended Slider's show; he played DJ K.K.

3/13 (my brother's birthday!)
• Today's HHA S-rank puts us at 227,202 points, the same as last week.
• Dug up the gyroid fragment from yesterday; retrieved a Ringoid! Also found a Tockoid and a Rattloid that had popped up because of yesterday's rain.
• Chatted with Rhonda (crafting a golden piggy bank), Patty (chilling at home), Pekoe (out for a stroll), and Kitty (wandering around the park).
• Rock update; STILL NO ROCK 😭
• Later ended up helping Kitty get her hands on a stinkbug.
• Decided to catch a bunch of different butterflies to release later at Paradise Planning...
• Visited the Roost and ordered a cup from Brewster. Got to order with pigeon milk again! 😄
• Decided to buy some clothing from the Able Sisters to give as gifts later, and also got some more customization kits and wrapping paper from Nook's Cranny.
• Went home and customized some items from storage to get them catalogued.
• Picked out, wrapped, and then delivered some gifts to my residents.
• Headed off to work; released butterflies in the yards of Dotty, Francine & Chrissy, Purrl, and Friga.

3/14 (Happy Pi Day, y'all!)
• Isabelle gave us tips on what to do should we ever find someone passed out on the beach; Gulliver had washed ashore again. It luckily didn't take very long to find the missing components.
• Update: ...STILL...NO...ROCK!? 😭
• Chatted with Kitty and Rhonda (the latter was visiting the former), Patty (chilling at home), and Pekoe (staying indoors today).
• Rex was thinking about moving away, but I was able to change his mind. (With Shione's 2-year anniversary so close, I couldn't bear the thought of him leaving yet)
. Visited Paradise Planning, did some "weeding". Found a bottle on the beach with instructions inside for making hanging glowing moss, and Merengue showed me how to make veggie cupcakes. Also ordered some things from Wardell.
 
I forgot to post in here but yesterday I caught an ant for the first time after playing for 2 years and donated it to the museum. I had accidentally left 200,000 bells worth of turnips outside on the ground and they rotted, I was frustrated that I lost all that money and didn't sell them for a profit but at least I got something out of it, one more bug closer to completing the bug portion of my museum! I'm determined to complete it, I've never completed any part other than the fossils in any of the animal crossing games before. I want to complete the entire museum this time :)
 
Failed to post last night, as I rather stupidly binged the entire first half of Reincarnated as a Slime s2... 😅 I'm gonna try not doing that again.


3/15
• Isabelle warned us of the risk involved with buying art from shady sources; Redd was visiting today. Although I didn't get to but any art, I did get to add the outdoor folding table to my catalogue...
• Recieved a purple tubeteika in the mail from Gulliver.
• Found a bottle on the beach with instructions inside for making a festival-lantern set!
• Update: STILL NO ROCK. I'm starting to think it's not coming back... 😰
• Found a lost planner outside Mathilda's house... I would've asked around to see who it belonged to, but I ended up bringing it straight to its owner on my first try; Mathilda had apparently been looking for it all morning. To my surprise, I ended up with a second copy of her photo!
• Visited the Roost and ordered a cup from Brewster. Unexpectedly, Nook himself stopped by for a cup, too!
• Chatted with Patty (out for a stroll), Kitty (chilling at home), and Pekoe (hanging out in Kitty's yard for some reason), but never once ran into Rhonda...
• Ran around catching more bugs for Paradise Planning...
• Visited Harv's island and customized a few things with Reese and Cyrus. Also checked in with Kicks and Saharah, and bought anything new.
• Headed off to work; released more butterflies into people's yards, specifically in Pinky's, Francine & Chrissy's, and Maddie's. Got paid nicely for it (I should really start logging on earlier so I can catch different kinds of bugs...)

3/16
• Isabelle mentioned that Flick was visiting today; I brought him three darner dragonflies for a collectible. (Also, I found him right outside my house, the second I walked out the door...)
• Picked out, wrapped, and delivered more gifts to my residents.
• Chatted with Rhonda (sitting in a patch of flowers), Patty (out for a stroll), Kitty (chilling at home), and Pekoe (wandering around the plaza).
• Visited Plucky, found her completely zonked out standing up, donut in hand 🤣
• Got assaulted by a tarantula outside the plaza; I didn't swing fast enough 😖
• Pashmina showed me how to make salad!
• Visited Paradise Planning, bought some stuff from the souvenir area. (Currently debating whether I should start a new project or update an older one...)

it's been fun, tiring, and all so very familiar. i love this game, but i hate what it does to me T_T
 
I've made a 8th resident on my main island Destiny (yeah I'm crazy but I kinda love doing this) and I am going to fully upgrade it to the 8th and final home I can put on the island.

• Chatted with Rhonda (making thumbprint jam cookies), Patty (out for a stroll), Pekoe (attending Slider's show; I realized I didn't pay attention to Isabelle's announcements today...), and Kitty (shopping at the Able Sisters).
• Update: STILL no rock. At this point, I'm pretty sure it's not coming back...

3/20 (Year 3! Let's GOOOOOOO)
• Today's HHA S-rank (first one "this year", technically 😆 ) puts us at 227,202 points, the same as last week. Which reminded me that I gotta think of a design for the back room for this spring...
• Changed clothes, back into my signature striped shirt and bandana!
• Changed my door decoration in preparation for Easter.
• Caught a veritable TRUCKLOAD of butterflies for Paradise Planning, also managed to catch a few honeybees and a ladybug!
• Ended up having Patty over for an impromptu visit; to kill some time while she explored the house, I checked out some custom designs on my phone. Ended up with a differently-colored samurai hakama!
• Plucky gave me some instructions for making a tension-pole rack!
• Chatted with Patty (out for a stroll), Pekoe (who had Rex over visiting, which made me feel like I'd crashed a date), Rhonda (enjoying a coffee in the park), and Kitty (out and about).
• Later helped Pekoe track down a bag that she'd lost while shopping; somehow, it ended up smack dab in the middle of Pashmina's yard. Upon returning it, I reached one heck of a reward; after two long years, I finally earned Pekoe's photo!!! 😃 Huzzah!!! 🎊🎉🎊 🎉🎊
• Visited the Roost and ordered a cup from Brewster. Got to order with pigeon milk today! (This year's already off to a good start! 😆 ) Blathers stopped by too, probably trying to wake himself up enough to function.
• Made an anniversary post on the bulletin board!
• Witnessed Rhonda try--and sadly fail--to catch a tiger beetle.
• Later helped Pashmina get her hands on a black bass by catching one for her. It took me AT LEAST an hour to finally track one down and catch it... (at least I got to catch more bugs in the process)
• Pekoe flagged me down herself and gave me a traditional tea set. I'm still just so jazzed that I finally got her photo!
• Headed off to work; the music festival was in full swing! Merengue showed me how to make potato curry, I got to buy some festival apparel from Ostara Noir, and I got two new projects "done": Punchy's Vacation-Home Treat and Sasha's Moon-Shot Manor.
• (Note, the quotations are there because my creative juices ran out halfway through both projects, so I didn't give them a proper 100% effort and kinda gave up. I do plan to go back and fix them up, and Sasha may very well just end up being Julian's roommate instead)
• Those two homes brought me up to 70 total! We had a little party at Café de Terrezia to celebrate.
 
I made a castle area on my newly reset island. It looks okay but not great. I need to figure out how I can improve it. I added another incline as well. I might end up terraforming the entirety of the 2nd and 3rd levels to change the layout of them. I'm not sure yet. Then again, if I end up not liking it, I can always reset again. I'm thinking of doing a colorful fairy tale theme with the castle pieces in pink and the pastel plaza set and some of the medieval building sides. Maybe lots of colorful flowers too. And small waterways. Then for fall, a gothic Halloween theme again.
