This is for last night but I turned half of my island's paths from stone to dirt. I'm bored of the stone and kinda want to go back to the 'OG' roots.

I accomplished the feat of finding some motivation to start up my island finally. Now I just need to waste six hours being picky about my island's starting layout.

Man, I've been super inactive. Eugh.

Well, six hours might have been.. um.. quite the underestimate. But, hey, I finally found something I can work with! Ah-hah...

12/8
• Isabelle gave us advice on what to do should we find someone passed out on the beach; Gulliver had washed ashore again. Didn't take too long to find the communicator pieces, thankfully.
• Took the char model out of the mail.
• Found a gyroid fragment on the beach!
• Rock update: no new appearances so far...
• Ended up catching the final pond smelt I needed for a collectible!
• Visited the Roost and ordered a cup from Brewster. Got to order with pigeon milk today!
• Went home and finished up my best dress, accessorized, and did a photo shoot to see how it looked. Overall, it turned out better than I thought it was going to, for which I am relieved.
• Picked out palettes for two new dress projects, having decided to do a few more after the success of the first two. Mostly, it's just to test my skills, but also just because I can

 

[MarzipanDragyn]

Splatoon is going to be taking my attention for the weekend, but I'll do my best to remember to post anyway


12/9 (day short due to BIG RUN)
• Isabelle mentioned Label was in town; passed her Fairytale Fashion Challenge with flying colors, and recieved a Labelle dress in thanks.
• Recieved a green Tam-O'-Shanter in the mail from Gulliver.
• Found another gyroid fragment on the beach!
• Rock update: no new appearances so far...
• Chatted with my residents as I came across them. Half of them weren't wearing clothing for the weather, so a trip to the Able Sisters to stock up is in my near future.
• Mathilda tried to give me the nickname "Dimples"...yeah, no. Just no.
• Dug up the gyroid fragment from yesterday; retrieved a Scatteroid!
• Visited the Roost and ordered a cup from Brewster. Found Don at the counter!

 

[dumbbrunette]

I'll be trying to be posting daily on this thread! I hope some of you do too!

Let us know what you did today! Even minor things such as plant new trees if you want! Anything is welcome!

Finished decorating Lily’s yard! So happy with it

 

[Imbri]

I donated the final piece to my museum this morning! All exhibits are now complete!

 

[MarzipanDragyn]

12/10 (snowing!)
• Isabelle happily announced that Slider was back in town; later in the day, I attended the show, and he played K.K. Folk.
• Recieved two tailor's tickets in the mail from Label.
• Chatted with a few of my residents as I ran across them.
• Rock update: no new appearances so far...
• Dug up the gyroid fragment from yesterday; retrieved a Flutteroid!
• Visited the Roost and ordered a cup from Brewster.
• Went home, got some more work done on one of my dress projects. My tablet with the reference materials I was using crashed when I was halfway done but that aside, so far so good.
• Decided to check out some more custom designs.

 

[Khaelis]

Well... managed to spent the last two days messing around on my new island and got my hands on a ton of NMTs via trading for em' and used them to find three villagers for the tutorial, and those villagers are: Skye, Shino and Bob!

Decided to time travel only this one time to move them in ASAP. Once I unlock the Campsite in a couple days, I'll probably be moving in Jay, Quinn and Audie with their amiibo cards over the coming days.

 

[MarzipanDragyn]

12/11
• Snow has finally blanketed the island! ❄
• Changed into more suitable winter clothing.
• Today's HHA S-rank puts us at 241,177 points, the same as last week.
• Chatted with my residents as I ran into them. Not enough of them were wearing suitable clothing for the weather...
• Rock update: no new appearances so far...
• Dug up a Bendoid and a Squeakoid that popped up from yesterday's snowfall.
• Prepared the field outside the Museum for building snowmen!
• Visited the Roost and ordered a cup from Brewster. Got to order with pigeon milk today!
• Ended up having Gayle over for an impromptu visit at my house. She gave me a faux-fur hat, and I won a viking top off of her in a card game. (Why she wasn't wearing these herself is still beyond me). Overall, she seemed to have a good time, and that made me happy.
• Finished the third dress project, and I'm amazed that this one turned out alright, considering I had to improvise on the back of the dress. Onto number four...tomorrow.

 

[Clock]

Flattened my entrance a bit, because I'm trying to redo my whole island

 

[Imbri]

Last night:

Collected the art poster from the mail. Yay!

Built my first snowman.

Snow is sticking, so I pulled all the illuminated/ornament/snowy items out to decorate. The island is officially done up for the holidays.

Tonight I'll probably finish up changing the interior of my house for winter/holidays. I'm also working out what to give all my villagers for holiday gifts. I ordered reindeer sweaters, but now I'm not sure. I'll think it over this week.

 

[NookSchnook]

Bought evergreen tree boxes for my villagers. I'd shot one down from a balloon a couple of days ago and liked the look. Since I'm working out how to contain the suffocating flower metastasis on my island, I thought that would be ideal for helping out at their houses. Plus they look great in front of them.

 

[stitchmaker]

The last few days Sunset has had very good luck.
Yesterday both players received 100 turnips from Joan
Player 3 helped Gulliver and has 5 more to go. Built a perfect snowboy.

Main Player got a bad luck fortune yesterday and got the Zodiac Snake arrived in the mail today. Completed the Zodiac collection.
Built another perfect snowboy. Both Snowboys are next to the Frozen Bar by the beach.

 

[MarzipanDragyn]

Failed to post last night, but I still got some stuff done, so it evens out. In any case, I always take screenshots through the day so I can write an accurate post later!



12/12
• Isabelle gave us advice on what to do should we find someone passed out on the beach; Gullivarrr had washed ashore again. Although I got to him late in the day (admittedly due to forgetting about it completely), it luckily didn't take very long to find his missing phone.
• Recieved a thank-you gift from Gayle in the mail: a sewing project.
• Rock update: reappeared on the field I cleared out specifically for making Snowboys. Since it turned out to be the money rock today, I'm glad I hit it before breaking it.
• Started decorating for the snowy weather; there's now three-tiered snowmen everywhere.
• Made the first perfect Snowboy of the year! ❄❄ LEZ GOOOOOOO
• Deposited a LOT of bells into savings...
• Visited the Roost and ordered a cup from Brewster. Got to order with pigeon milk today!
• Also started up X-mas decorating! ❄❄
• Picked out and wrapped gifts to deliver tomorrow (my residents really need better winter clothes...)

12/13
• Isabelle mentioned that Label was visiting today... (UPDATE: I only remembered AFTER calling it a day. Oops.)
• Recieved a Pirate outfit in the mail from Gullivarrr, along with a frozen tree freon yesterday's snowboy.
• Discovered Rhonda had come down with a cold I came back later with some medicine for her.
• Tracked everyone down and delivered the gifts! (Rhonda did get hers too, I just ended up visiting her a lot today as a result)
• Rock update: appeared in the snowboy field again, just in a different spot from yesterday. Broke it again, hoping it'll show up elsewhere.
• Made another perfect snowman, and recieved a large snowflake from the other ❄
• Visited the Roost and ordered a cup from Brewster. Isabelle also dropped by for a cup!
• Went home and got some work done on the fourth dress project, which is definitely turning out to be the most difficult of the four. Hoping it'll look good once finished!

 

[NookSchnook]

Yesterday---

New villager: Pekoe (normal bear cub). If you consider the cub as mother to the bear, this makes the first time my island has two villagers of the reasonably same species. (We've had Paula [big sister bear] from the beginning.)

Weather: pleasant on my island, raining like hell on the mystery island to which Kapp'n took me.

Milestone: recipe for and made the golden slingshot.

Milestone number two: Axel (jock elephant) finally engaging a conversation having nothing to do with bodybuilding. (And you have to love an elephant whose profile resembles a potbelly stove obsessed with bodybuilding.)

Milestone number three: Caught my first arapaima and donated it to the museum, where this unique river fish now swims in a huge tank . . . with a durago and a piranha.

 

[Licorice]

Cleaned up my flowers after it snowed and redecorated my kitchen.

 

[~Kilza~]

The major accomplishment is that I opened up my mail, which gave me the final model I needed from CJ. It was the very last item I needed for 100%* completion. It only took playing daily for 2 years and almost 9 months, but I finally did it.

* - As a note, I don't include posters/photos in this since ultimately, photos don't show up in your catalog and having the posters show in your catalog would require having all villagers on your island at some point or using amiibo cards to get them all, neither of which is really feasible for me.
