Sorry ladies, I blew my island play this weekend!! I decided to work on my other hobbies this weekend.
I'll be back in business this week and trying to remember to open during the day and some evenings.

I opened tonight. I'll be on and off AFK. Take anything you can pick up. I'll check in an hour for Celeste. Sahara is on my island today. She's feeling neglected.

So I had my island open for a while last night and was AFK. I quickly closed and quit. I started playing as usual this morning and found bell bags where I am positive I hadn't leave any. It took me a while to realize what was happening. LOL.

It took me a while to realize what was happening. LOL. We have bell fairies :-). They make life fun lol Zombieland is open. I’m struggling with the small areas on the front section of my island. I just can’t get the “junking it up” but make it classy look so I end up with a lot of new flower stems or weeds. *sigh*.

It just goes to show ya... I'm so sleepy that I mistyped "leave" for "left" Ugh. I'm not going to bother to edit now that I've been quoted. LOL.
So is "Daydreaming" a new reaction? When are we going to get the updates?!!!!

When are we going to get the updates?!!!! Friday is the 20 minute Nintendo Live ONLY for AC, so there should be LOTS of good info. My Zoomers are off that day, so we're going to watch. I'll be sure to post anything amazing. I have very low hopes and expectations. DH, on the other hand, is hoping for new fish and bugs and flowers and, and, and... lol.

I've been down all this last week with the 'rona. It got me! Had a breakthrough, mild case, only cold like symptoms. Still can't smell or taste though, but I'm mostly better. All I had energy to do was fire up the game. I decorated for Halloween and I have a lot of things I did last time I played that I am unhappy with so I'm in the middle of redoing everything back to the way it used to be. I can't muster up the energy to come up with new designs though. I am waiting for the update on Friday. Everyone on Youtube seems to be excited about Brewster but I remember him from City Folk and other than getting a cup of coffee there wasn't much to do with him so IDK why everyone is so excited. I'd love new flowers/fish/bugs. More storage of course...a bigger Nooks with new stuff maybe? IDK I'm so bored! For some reason though, I swear I can't get ANY statues from Redds when he does come. Why are they so hard to come by? That's the only part of my museum that isn't done. I still have more art to try to collect but the statues, that's so tough. Anyway, my rambling way of popping in, I am wanting to go visit you guys to see what you've all done so I'll periodically check to see if gates are open so me, Dahlia can drop by

Zombieland is open. I changed up some decorating for the holiday. I think that area will always be what is the latest season stuff. @oh Yvonne I have some extra statues. Which ones are you needing? I would love some new plants, flowers etc. Maybe some more variations of flowers like black mums!

Eeeek oh yvonne I hope you get to feeling better! I am about to head home for the day so I may open up. I got my booster yesterday. This morning for about 40 minutes I had the worst chest and jaw pain. I was convinced I was having a heart attack. I do believe now it was just angina. But now I am freezing and planning on going home and going to bed. I didn't have any other reactions with my last 2 shots, just a sore arm. Which that is the funny part now. I have frozen shoulder in my right shoulder and decided to take the shot in the left arm. This morning trying to put a bra on and my bel through my jeans became quite a comical sight. Glad there are no cameras in my bathroom. Oh and I just remembered, oh yvonne, I was given a common painting the other day by one of my residents. I didn't check to see if it is real or not. If it is real, is that one you need? I'll send it once I get it appraised.

I still have more art to try to collect but the statues, that's so tough. Girl, you know we can help you get that filled out. Redd is a sneaky one! I am so sorry you've been down with Delta though. (anybody else know the song "Delta Dawn"? First thing that pops in my head when I hear "delta".) I hope you're feeling back to 100% soon. I don't know what I'll do if this update sucks.. my island is stuck somewhere between "Asian Market" and "Halloween" and "hey, let's try to get our rocks together" and "do you have enough flowers?" AND "CHRISTMAS IS COMING AAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!". The struggle, as they say, is real.

naby64 You can't catch a break! I'm glad that chest pain passed though. My Mom felt horrible after her 2nd shot, but then her Booster knocked her out for the weekend with flu like symptoms. It makes me anxious to see how my kids react when they can get theirs.. one of my DD's always has a weird reaction to her flu shot, but usually passes after a day or so. Rest up!!

Oh my day got better. DH called as I was leaving the office to tell me he fell/tripped in the garage. Scraped his knee pretty bad and has messed up his shoulder or wrist. Also I walked in to dog poo on the entrance carpet and followed the tracks back to the bedroom. Where said DH was laying on fairly new comforter. With dirty dog poo shoes. He won't go to urgent care or ED. Fine, I don't want to hear later how it hurts. I'm in my bed watching Harry Potter. My day is done.

awe, you guys are the best, thank you! On the art/statue thing I soooo appreciate the offer for the statues I think I'll just wait and try the excitement of still trying to get them naturally, so when you've got Redd I'll come on by if you open I kinda would like some Celeste goodies on all those months I missed. I may but out a call for what I'm missing if you all can help with that. I did a lot of Time travelling when I fired up last week to catch up on the stuff I missed during the year. Some things I passed on like all the frozen food things for August, there were so many of them and my gosh my storages fill up quick! Thanks for the well wishes, poor naby64! Yeah, I tell ya I'm so thankful I was fully vaxxed, so it wasn't too bad. Just miss my sense of smell! Its impossible to cook without smelling and tasting, it really sucks. One meal I did oversalt but my family ate it anyway lol. dawnnikol I'm dying to see Asian Market, and Halloween! and now you got me humming Delta Dawn. I used to LOOOOVE that song, it was so easy to belt out holding the hairbrush, lol. Stupid Delta, ugh. My rocks, I don't even bother banging anymore, I really should for the gold for my gold tools. Of all the new things released this year what was your all favorite? For versatility/inspo? I was excited to get the added wedding stuff but was kinda disappointed in the ring pillow. It doesn't even look like anything. The arch with the bell was okay but it annoyed me that I can't customize it..I mean, why the heck not to match the color palette that exists already? The carp flags are pretty cool looking.

My girls are on book 5 of the audiobooks and their excitement is contagious. I try to do a re-read at Christmas time, we'll see how it goes this year... My rocks, I don't even bother banging anymore, I really should for the gold for my gold tools. Oh, I don't bang them for resources. I'm busting them to half-heartedly move them somewhere else. I doubt I'll follow through because I have zero patience for it. dawnnikol I'm dying to see Asian Market, and Halloween! and now you got me humming Delta Dawn. I used to LOOOOVE that song, it was so easy to belt out holding the hairbrush, lol. Stupid Delta, ugh. I'll see about opening up since the kids are off for the next couple of days, it's a crap fest for sure though. ^.^ Of all the new things released this year what was your all favorite? For versatility/inspo? I've been super underwhelmed... it seems like forever since they released anything that made me hop on and do something. Friday could be really, really good since they've left us on the hook for so long.

The carp flags are pretty cool looking. The wedding collection comes in 3 different colors (dont quote me on that number!), so it sounds like you just have a mismatched piece. Let me know what color you are looking for and I can check a treasure island.

You left off one crucial piece of information.... who had to clean up the dog poo? Since both of you aren't feeling well I'd say he should do it. Hope things will start looking up soon!

For those who are expressing being bored, let me just put a plug in for a reboot. I am enjoying my new island so much more than my first. I felt so much pressure with the first one to log in every day, finish all the tasks, do all the events etc. With the new one, I am ignoring a lot of that and playing with the terraforming and decorating, hunting specific villagers to match my plan. Treasure Islands have enabled me to get the specific items I need without having to wait for an event etc. I feel like my new island is much more relaxed. I ignore my villagers and they seem to love me even more for that lol. I don't feel like I have to hoard everything in multiples and I get to take my time building up the areas of my island. Im super stoked about the bottom right corner of my island. It still has a bit more work in some smaller sections but it is almost where I want it to be so I can move outwards. The only thing I am struggling with is that one of my pools/water falls on the upper level is in a shape that 14 year old brains giggle at. My 46 year old brain giggles every time. I want to figure out how to keep it subtle but keep it. It is hilarious. That said, making it work into what I want to do is almost impossible *sigh* so Im leaving it for last If you go check it out and see what I see....I DID NOT MAKE IT...The game pre filled it for that island. Blame the developers. If you don't see it, good...then its just my sick brain

dawnnikol today was #2. Hahaha how fitting for the afternoon! We have HBOMax and it has all the HP movies. I'm watching them through when I'm not feeling well. Actually, I start them and then fall asleep. monklady123 I drew the lucky straw. If he had full use of his arm, it would have been him. I'm also glad I put Sally's diaper on her. She had another accident while I slept. Brings me back to baby days...yuck!
