What's something good that happened in your game today?

Got all of the new fish for this month and the update somewhat brought my motivation back for now.
 
Molly finished unpacking!! I absolutely adore her! She’s so short (😂) and freaking precious! I love her eyes, her house, everything! And her catch phrase is also adorable lol

She is my personal, favorite female villager/islander.

A sweet, down-to-earth, and sincere duck.

Molly!
 
Erik moved in! I met him on my friend's island months ago, but he moved out before I had a free space. :-( My amiibo came in the mail a few days ago, and he's moving in soon!
 
Got some new diving creatures and got the wetsuit color I wanted which is black.
 
I randomly got Dom Moving into an empty plot after not wanting to spend nook mile tickets when i kicked out my last unwanted villager Ozzie. Im crying of joy!

I finally got the DIY for the hyacinth lamp! I have been farming that one for weeks now with an Amiibo camper, but today Cherry was building it in her house. :D So happy now, the lamp is so beautiful!
...
But I have no purple flowers collected to actually build more than one. XD Gotta farm those now for the next couple of days/weeks. ^.^
 
Not today, but late last night- after chasing it nearly entirely around my island (not a joke- it spawned on the left side, I chased it all around the bottom, up and around the right side, and caught it halfway across the top) I caught a Gigas Giant Clam!

Seriously, I know they're worth 15k bells (though this first one went to the museum, of course), that is a HARD earned 15k. Those little guys are STUPID fast 😓
 
I invited Reneigh from my campsite!

Today I had my first campsite visitor using the campsite method. Diva moved out on June 25th, so I had no sisterly villagers on my island.
Reneigh was the first one to show up using the method. She was the sisterly villager I wanted the most.
 
I caught two Gigas Giant clams! They're so beautiful. I donated one and kept the other. I used the tip that I read on here somewhere - to slowly approach them not pressing a - and I didn't have to chase them at all. I was kind of looking forwards to a chase but less stressful this way!
I also got one pearl today - I've caught almost 300 creatures and this was my second pearl.
 
I caught two sunfish in a row this morning at like 5 am... it made me laugh so hard that I couldn’t see my character. So glad I’m slowly completing my logs.
 
I caught a giant gigas clam and a vampire squid within a few minutes of each other and donated them to Blathers. 😁
 
I'm finally happy with my museum area. I keep seeing pictures of museums on cliffs and the amount of ramps just for it. I couldn't commit 3-4 ramps for an area I'm not going to frequent so I placed it on the ground
 
I hit my critterpedia hard and used nmt to create a bug island. Running around with my net for a while I got everything except the Scarab Beetle including 2 Golden Stags. Was much easier than trying to find them on my island which I’d tried with no success.
 
Over the weekend

I caught all fish and bugs for July. The Horned Hercules took the longest to spawn. I'm estimating about 10 hours in total.

I also finally caught the Mahi-Mahi, though I had to craft and use nearly 550 bait before getting lucky.

Round 1: I had used 200 bait. No catch.
Round 2: I crafted and used over 310 bait. No catch.


Round 3: I made 30 more bait, ready to call it quits, and I caught it with 7 bait to spare.

The weekend was extremely grindy, but in the end, I have success.
 
My Nooks Cranny got upgraded and I was finally able to purchase a proper piece of kitchen furniture instead of having items just placed on log tables 😁
