After saving Goldie from moving out, I bought myself a firefighter tee at Able Sisters. It’s not a shirt I normally wear, but I thought I’d try something new. When I went back outside, I spotted a magic lamp on the ground behind the shop.
Over by the museum, I heard a balloon present flying overhead. I whipped out my slingshot and shot it down. It contained a beach table.
Even though I had the magic lamp, I didn’t find Wisp anywhere in town. I think it was too early still, so I returned after 8 p.m. Over by town hall, a mysterious voice called out to me and scared me to death.
Of course, it was Wisp.
I told him I had his lamp, but he requested that I rub it in the privacy of my attic. So I did. I normally ask him for furniture as my reward, but this time, I decided to ask for a hat. Hats can be fun to wear. To my surprise, he gave me a festive hat (Santa’s hat, in other words).
But Christmas was six months ago! Why this now? Is he the ghost of Christmas past?
I decided not to keep it on. It’s too late (or too early) to be thinking about Christmas.
Roald was still sick with a cold, and this time, I actually bought some medicine for him. Maybe I was just in the Christmas spirit. 😀
Bones sniffed out the barbecue in my pockets; I got it out of the lost and found a few minutes earlier. He offered to trade his “U R here” shirt for it, and I agreed.
I sold some fruit and shook some trees before wrapping up my night. I didn’t spot any valuable tree beetles tonight, but I did catch a couple of emperor butterflies and a bee.
