What Did You Accomplish On Your Island Today?

[Rosch]

Update: I said goodbye to Snake and finally got Rolf. Hans is the only one left. Hopefully I get him before Toy Day.

Final villager update:

Zell left and I finally invited Hans back. My final 10 villager lineup is now complete and I was able to do it before Toy Day as I had hoped.
Sterling, Punchy, Rudy, Bob, Lobo, Curt, Rolf, Maple, Whitney, Hans

12/14
• Isabelle mentioned that Celeste was visiting today; after tracking her down, she gave me a set of instructions for crafting a lily wand!
• Discovered Kicks was set up in the plaza, so I bought him out as usual.
• Recieved a frozen table in the mail from yesterday's snowboy.
• Rock update: showed up in the open path south of the snowboy field. Broke it again. I'm beginning to wonder if it's ever going to pop back up in the place I want it to...
• Made another perfect snowman, and recieved 2 large snowflakes from the others.
• Visited the Roost and ordered a cup from Brewster.
• Went home and finished up the final dress ❄ I had to stop there because if I kept nitpicking over every little detail, I was going to go insane. Spent the better half of an hour tweaking its corresponding makeup until it looked right. And since it was already snowy outside, I had the perfect set for a photoshoot. Big success! ❄❄
• Ended up with an impromptu visit from Pekoe...that lasted LITERALLY 10 seconds. I'm dead serious. It was the weirdest thing in Animal Crossing I've witnessed to date. She walked in, said hi, and then turned around, said goodbye, and took off. Here, there, gone.
• Discovered Gayle was thinking about moving away; I was thankfully able to change her mind (phew!).

 

[MarzipanDragyn]

Today's entry ended up short; the change in the weather's affecting my ability to do delicate motions without pain in my fingers... I was wrapped up in AT LEAST three very thick blankets.


12/15
• Isabelle spoke of the cedar trees being decorated; time to farm for ornaments again!
• Recieved a frozen chair in the mail from yesterday's snowman.
• Rock update: reappeared once again in the field, right next to yesterday's snowman. This is getting irritating. (Might just have to find a temporary spot for it until the snow melts...)
• Visited the Roost and ordered a cup from Brewster.
• Had to track down the snowballs for today's snowboy, no thanks to the stinkin' rock, and had to roll them to the field all the way from Resident Services and through the airport gardens (to make sure they were big enough to survive rolling over multiple paths), but still managed to make a perfect snowman! also recieved 3 large snowflakes from the others ❄❄❄

 

[MarzipanDragyn]

Short and late day today, still really cold... ❄❄


12/16 (late day)
• There was a visitor at the campsite today: Dizzy the Elephant. Ended up playing a card game with him, and won a chef's outfit.
• Recieved a frozen pillar in the mail from yesterday's snowboy.
• Rock update: appeared in the path south of the snowboy field. Broke it again, but forgot to open up a temporary spot for; it it'll probably be back in the field again tomorrow.
• Randomly recieved a festive wreath from Pietro.
• Managed to make another perfect snowman, (I could've sworn I'd botched it, but was pleasantly surprised) and recieved three large snowflakes from the others. ❄❄❄
• Visited the Roost and ordered a cup from Brewster.

 

[Shawna]

I have actually been doing this for the past few days now, but I've been putting together a birthday surprise for my best friend. You see, it is his birthday technically today (it's passed midnight). So later on after we've have had our sleep, he will come by my island to pick it up.

 

[Cirice]

I reseted my island two days ago - today I got the campsite up, dived for my first crabs and gifted fruits to all my villagers ! I've also finally put away the original bed and lamp Nook gives us when we set up our tents, but couldn't bear to sell them so they're stored in my house storage now hehe

 

[Shawna]

Had my BFF come to my island and pick up his birthday presents I got for him <333

 

[Pokeking]

Tonight, I got my Nook mile achievement for the 100th KK Slider performance. There are still plenty of achievement to get though like the golden axe one.

Finished buying Midwinter sweaters. I'm going to give those to my villagers this year instead of the reindeer ones.

Made a perfect snowboy. I have all the items, so this year I'll probably amuse myself by creating weirdly proportioned ones.

Got the 30x miles achievement for stretching. I keep forgetting about that and need to complete it. I want the emotes.

Cleaned up all the branches, weeds, etc.

I'll hit the shops and check in with villagers this evening.

 

[NookSchnook]

Today's accomplishment---surviving Saturday's Bug-Off!! (Decorating the island further with ornamental trees didn't hurt, either.)

Also started buying wall-mounted TV sets for the villagers for Christmas.

 

[MarzipanDragyn]

Fell behind because of both the cold weather and holiday preparations. "Most wonderful time of the year, " they say
Still, I got some more decorating done than I had last year, so at least I made some progress!

[spicedb]

I restarted my island today, after months of hesitating. A shame I couldn't spend a last Toy Day with my beloved villagers, nevertheless it felt freeing. It was a good 2 years : )
Spent the morning collecting materials for when have more DIYs to craft stuff, and did a bit of island hopping. So excited to get things going again.

 

[Captain Jigglypuff]

Paid off my second extension on my Home and ordered a new one.

Most remained without furniture for months/over a year.

[NookSchnook]

Wednesday:

* Continued what I call Operation Floral Containment---removed a small boatload of flowers from around Axel's now-gone
house, paved a walk from his front door in the other direction and turned it to connect more directly with the walk going
right past the plaza's right side. Also made sure the house's remaining flowers didn't look as though they were planted at random
by someone after being spun around three times with a blindfold on. The property really looks great now.

* Vetted two potential new villagers via remote island trips. Both turned out to be grumps. I don't like grumps in real life, and
I don't like them on my island.

* Remodeled my house's kitchen---out with the ironwood tables on either side of my retro diner bench, table and chairs; in with the
Turkey Day tables . . . which actually look nice all year round, not just on Thanksgiving.

* Kept Flick happy with choice presentations of choice flying things. (Surprisingly heavy on the Queen Alexandra butterflies---I caught four of them on my island today. Usually one is about right and two is a bonus.)

* Collected more toys for Toy Day exchanges and finished buying the planned wall-mounted TV sets I plan giving my villagers as extra Christmas presents because they're all always so nice to me. (I gave Axel his before he packed to move.)

* Shot a clay furnace out of the sky via balloon and placed it up on the highest cliff adjacent to a nice stone table/stools setup. Since this cliff is next to one of my two produce fields, I can zip up there and pound out some sugar and flour and a couple of nice savoury dishes on the fly if I don't want to run all the way home just yet!
