On Monday, I went out to Harv’s Island to get my fortune told. Katrina gave me some bad news, saying that my luck with health will diminish.

I paid the purification fee of 10,000 bells…not to improve my luck, but to get her lucky item in the mail.

Over at the campsite, I found Muffy the sheep camping in town for the 2nd time. She certainly has a unique look, but I did not ask her to move in.

I found Pascal while diving, and he wondered what we may be doing to chase time away. Who knows? Maybe we are. 🕰️

On Tuesday, I received my expected letter from Katrina. She sent me another power stone this time. Cool item, but I already had one.

June was thinking about leaving town, but I got her to stay for just one bell! Or at least that’s how her catchphrase made it sound. 😆

On Thursday, I had another camper in town: Shep the dog! (It was also his 2nd time camping in Forest.)

Even though I like him a lot, I didn’t ask him to move in. Perhaps I should have at least seen who he would have replaced, but oh well. Maybe another time.

Tonight, K.K. Slider was in town and I asked for a random song. He performed “K.K. Marathon” for me and Bones. It’s not the best song, but at least I got to hang out with my dogs.

Here are a few other quick notes about this week:

• On Sunday, K.K. Slider performed “K.K. Robot Synth” for me and Static.
• Monday, I gave Agent S some medicine for her cold. She gave me a samurai hakama in return.
• I helped out Wisp Thursday, and he rewarded me with an analog kitchen scale. Sounds like a fair trade… I helped his lost spirits find eternal peace, and he helped me weigh spaghetti.
• Today, I returned a lost item to Louie. He thanked me with a camo tee.

Wednesday (July 9th) was Static’s birthday. For his gift, I gave him a throwback race-car bed that I purchased at Nook’s Cranny.

Even though Static attended the birthday of fellow squirrel Agent S last week, Agent S did not return the favor. Instead, Ankha was Static’s other party attendee. And she was giving mixed messages about how much she was enjoying it. 😛

On Thursday, Merengue was talking about moving out of town. But of course, I made her change her mind.

The summer fishing tournament was held today, and I found three of my villagers all huddled up and fishing in the same spot: Ankha, Bob, and Merengue.

Maybe they should space out a bit. Bob told me that it was a great day for fishing, because the water was wet and the sky is up. Classic Bob logic. 😆

I participated in one run of the tourney, and I caught seven fish in the three-minute time limit, including two red snappers.

My seven fish earned me a score of nine points, and I sold the fish for a total of 12,375 bells. I then redeemed ten points for a fish print.

Later on, I found a scallop while diving. Pascal popped up to ask for it, and he told me that getting framed sounds like a good thing.

He gave me a pearl for the scallop.

I listened in on a conversation between my purple friends, Static and Bob. Static asked Bob about his future plans for when he grows up. Bob replied that he dreamed of building a house made out of peach cobbler!

Static wasn’t on board.

Here are a few other quick notes about this week:

• On Sunday, a sick Bob gave me a jinbei after I gave him some medicine.
• Wisp gave me a purple camo wall after I gathered up his spirits for him.
• On Tuesday, I sold 13 fish to C.J. for 198,000 bells.
• Flick was in town Wednesday, and I sold him 17 bugs for 111,000 bells.
• I helped Gulliver yesterday, and he sent me a veil in the mail.

See you next time!

On Sunday, Quillson the duck was camping here in Forest for the 2nd time. I ducked out before he could inquire about moving in.

On Wednesday, Louie sent me a letter with a blue corner attached. Since it was Agent S’s birthday, I thought that would make a good gift for her. It is blue, after all. So I wrapped it up and headed to the squirrel superhero’s party. But when I gave her the present, there was a problem: She said she already has a blue corner! Oops!

However, she still accepted it. Another squirrel, Static, was also at the party. And he even called himself “an old cuss.” 😆

Yesterday, I listened in on a conversation between Agent S and Bones. Agent S said that her goal was to become a multifaceted pop star, and Bones didn’t understand. 😛

Today, I had another camper at the campsite. It was Peggy the pig, but I have no interest in bringing home this bacon.

K.K. Slider was in town tonight for his Saturday night show, and I asked him for a random song. He performed “K.K. Rally” for me, Ankha, Bob, and Bones. Well, and a mosquito.

Here are a few other quick notes about this week:

• On Sunday, K.K. Slider performed “K.K. Ballad” for me.
• On Tuesday, I sold 18 fish to C.J. for a whopping 312,000 bells.
• On Wednesday, Wisp gave me a garden chair when I returned his spirits to him.
• Flick was in town, and I sold him 32 bugs for 159,000 bells.
• Yesterday, I returned a lost item to June. She rewarded me with some cat grass.
• I helped out Gullivarrr, and he sent me another pirate outfit today.
