Rhoda Out, Queenie In

I got a goodbye letter from Rhoda, so she is now gone.

Rhoda's goodbye letter.I went to go meet my new neighbor Queenie. She has a really cool chess themed house.

Queenie's chess board house.I took the island furniture out of my upstairs and took it to the island for storage. (Where else?) I started the preliminary decorating of my upstairs for my next house redesign…which is still a very long time off. But I wanted to at least get it started. I think it looks really cool so far. Sorry, no pictures of it yet. I always like keeping my house designs a secret until I upload my annual house tour video on Youtube.

Done With Aerobics

I woke up early this morning to attend the summer aerobics. I got my 14th stamp, which means I’m done! Tortimer gave me the aerobics radio, so I can do the aerobics in my house whenever I want.

Doing aerobics for the final time.Tortimer: Today marks the 14th time you've come to do morning aerobics! You've met your goal!Using the aerobics radio in my house.Later in the day, I went to visit this weekend’s summer camper. It was Vladimir! Vladimir was a long-time resident of Forest, and I miss the old grump. He used to live where Ursala lives now. Anyway, I played a few of his games but didn’t win anything I wanted.

Vladimir: You're not coming in here expecting me to cook for you, are you?

Update: Here is a video that shows the highlights of this year’s morning aerobics.

Aerobics Fail, Camper Fail, Kitty Gone

I woke up early this morning to get my aerobic stamp. But when I started up my game, I saw it was storming. And aerobics are cancelled when it rains. So I woke up early for nothing.

Later on in the day, I played the game normally. (In the morning for aerobics, that’s basically all I do. I don’t check my mail or go to the store or anything). I got a goodbye letter in the mail…but it wasn’t from Lulu, my newest villager. It was from Kitty.

This breaks a trend that’s been happening for a long time in Forest. Maybe a couple years even. The animal that moves out has almost always been the most recent animal that moved in. As for Kitty, I was starting to think she became a permanent resident, like most of my animals seem to be. Oh well. Kitty is gone.

Kitty's goodbye letter.I went into the summer camper’s tent–this week it was Amelia. I played her games for a long time…close to two hours. And still didn’t get the item I was looking for. I have two more weekends of summer campers left to go…

Amelia: And you get a fine cow skull.After that nonsense, I decided I was done for the day. I went to the post office to deposit my money into the bank. But on the way, I saw my new villager Rhoda the chicken.

Meeting Rhoda.
