Last Saturday, I found Bones taking a nap up on Rainbow Road! How cute! 🥺

On Monday, I found Faith camping at the campsite. This is the 2nd time she has camped here! She’s not the first one to do that, though: Rocket camped here twice too, with her 2nd visit coming just about five weeks ago.

Even though Faith is my favorite koala, I didn’t ask her to move in.

Tuesday, Rio told me of her unusual morning routine. When she has trouble waking up, she screams and runs in circles for a few minutes! 😆

Yesterday, Bob was sick with a cold. I bought some medicine for him and took it over to him. He thanked me by giving me a desert outfit.

Gulliver was in town, and I helped him out by retrieving his phone parts. In return, he sent me a Stonehenge today.

I found a lost item (a bag) on the ground today. The description sounded like it belonged to a lazy villager, so I tried giving it to Punchy. I was right! He thanked me for returning it, and he gave me another copy of his photo. Thanks, Punchy!

A message bottle on the beach surprised me by giving me a food recipe I didn’t have yet! Tomato juice!

So of course I just had to give it to Ketchup. 😆

She was looking forward to eating it, and she thanked me with a plain do-rag.

Have a great weekend!

On Monday, Static asked me to deliver a gift to Rio. It was a kung-fu tee, which Rio didn’t think was much of a “pop-star” look. Still, she tried it on and asked my opinion. But there was one small problem…

I couldn’t see it! And since I was mid-conversation, I couldn’t rotate the camera. 😛 I told her it looked great though, just in case it did. 😆 Rio gave me a hanten jacket to thank me.

Yesterday, Annalisa the anteater was camping at the campsite. She seemed nice, but I wasn’t interested in having her move in.

She would’ve loved the steady stream of ants at my rotten turnip, though. (I keep it just outside my house most of the time. The ants help with the Nook Miles+ goals for catching bugs.)

Today, I ran into Bob on the beach, and I couldn’t help but wonder what on Earth he was wearing!

It was an aquamarine diner apron with a green Buddy the Elf hat. It’s just a weird combination. And even though they’re both green, they’re completely different shades that don’t match at all. 😛

C.J. was in town today, and I caught three big-time fish in a row to complete his seasports challenge. I then grabbed ten fish from storage and sold them to him for 95k.

Here are a few other quick notes about the past week:

• Last Friday, Wisp gave me some frilly socks.
• Last Saturday, K.K. performed K.K. Waltz for me.
• I bought a bunch of turnips Sunday, and I sold them for a small profit on Tuesday.
• On Monday, I sold 29 bugs to Flick for 127,500 bells.
• On Wednesday, Gullivarrr sent me a pirate eye patch.
• My savings balance reached 78 million bells Wednesday.

Last Friday, Norma the cow was camping at the campsite. She seemed nice, but I was not interested in asking her to moo move in.

On Saturday evening, Ankha congratulated me on the fishing I did. But I was confused, because I hadn’t done any fishing!

It turns out it was the day of the fishing tournament. However, it had already ended by the time I started up the game. So I don’t think Isabelle told me about it since it was already over by that point (or if she did, I just skimmed past it without it sinking in). 😆

Last week, I sold my turnips for a small profit. And this week, I bought even more. I purchased 8,300 turnips for a price of 95 bells apiece.

On Tuesday, Ketchup sent me this strawberry umbrella in the mail. And it’s such a Ketchup thing, with the little leaf and stem on top. Here’s a picture of me holding it while talking to Gulliver.

Yesterday, Axel the elephant was camping at the campsite. I like him more than I like Norma, but still not enough to inquire about kicking anyone out.

Today, the Nooklings were paying 155 bells for turnips. I sold them all for 1,286,500 bells. I’m inching closer to the halfway point of my Nook Miles goal; currently 4.8m/10m. I need to keep buying lots of turnips like I have the past couple weeks, and maybe I’ll actually complete my goal this year. 😛

When I put my bells into my bank account, my balance topped 77 million bells (77.5 million to be more accurate).

Here are a few other quick notes about the past week:

• Last Friday, Gullivarrr sent me some pirate boots.
• K.K. Slider played K.K. Dirge for me and Midge on Sunday night.
• Gulliver sent me a turban yesterday.

See you next time!
