On Wednesday, I received my worthy painting in the mail from Jolly Redd. I rushed it over to the museum, and I was very happy (and a bit surprised, actually) when Blathers informed me that it was an authentic work of art!
I also received more of my ordered Mario items in the mail. However, I was a bit disappointed by the large mushroom platform initially, because it wasn’t letting me use it as a table. However, it can be used that way. Maybe I just wasn’t standing in the right place or something.
Tybalt asked me for a wharf roach, and I agreed to help out. But after a few trips back and forth without finding the bug, I decided to use my warp pipes to help out my search! I put one on each side of the beach, and that helped me to find the bug quicker than crossing town repeatedly. These warp pipes can be used in so many ways!
Yesterday, the Nooklings were paying 144 bells for turnips. I sold 1,000 of my 1,300 at that price, to ensure I’d make a profit for the week.
Last night, I spent some time testing things out as I try to decide on a layout for my Mario obstacle course. I figured some things out, and I have a general idea of what I want to do…but it’s going to take a while.
I ordered the Mario outfit and I also made Tom Nook redesign my house with red and white (for Mario month). The outfit arrived today, and the changes to my house were finished today as well. Here’s a look at both.
Uh, don’t mind the green hair though.
Several of my villagers commented on my new look.
Today, the Nooklings were buying turnips for 163 bells apiece…even better than yesterday! So I sold my remaining 300 turnips for a total of 48,900 bells.
Gulliver was in town, and I dug up his five communicator pieces for him. He will send me a reward in the mail tomorrow.
Reminder: There is no Friday Night Forest tonight. Maybe next week, but that will probably depend on whether or not I finish my obstacle course by then.
I also want to hold a one-year anniversary party on March 20th, which is a Saturday. A few of you may remember that’s what I did for City Folk’s one year anniversary in 2009 (see video), and I want to do the same for New Horizons as well. I just don’t know what time it will be yet.
