Near town hall, I checked out the new message of the week. It says that joy is received, not taken.
Joey must have given his sickness to Puddles, because the pink frog now has a cold. It seems like there’s almost always someone who’s sick in town.
Crazy Redd was in town, and I bought an amazing painting from him. I took it over to the museum, where Blathers informed me that it was a real piece of art! So I donated it, and it’s the first painting visible when you walk into the art gallery.
I went downstairs to the Roost, and I found Phyllis enjoying a cup of coffee. She was also enjoying the chance to be rude.
I sat next to her and ordered a cup of coffee as well.
Back outside, I ran into Baabara. She asked if I was taking good care of “that item” she gave me the other day. I didn’t know what she was talking about, so I replied with “What item?” She then angrily reminded me about her picture that she gave me. Oops. Oh yeah, that.
I caught some bugs and fish, but I didn’t find any that were particularly valuable. With summer over, it’s hard to make much money now. But I did make a 15,000 bell mortgage payment at town hall.
