Silver Member

My recent snow shortage seems to be over; it’s been snowing the past several days in Forest.

Saturday was the day of Nookington’s point special; they were giving out five times the normal amount of shopping points. So I bought out all of the furniture, wallpaper, and carpets they had on sale. That took me from 3,222 points all the way up to 4,547!

Since I was so close to the 5,000 that I needed to reach silver status, I ordered a few more items from my catalog. I ran out of cash, so I had to withdraw some money from my account. But I met my goal.

On Sunday, I got a letter from Tom Nook in the mail. Well, actually a bunch of them, if you include all the things I ordered. 😛 But Tom Nook thanked me for the business, announced that I was a silver member, and told me I now get a 5% discount on all items. Nice!

A model of Nook ‘n’ Go was attached to the letter. It’s too bad that New Leaf doesn’t have most of these town models that the earlier games had.

Today, I got this letter from Mom in the mail:

What. The. Heck. Seriously, Nintendo? That’s kind of a depressing holiday letter! Poor hamster.

But then, I found a note in a bottle on the beach. I couldn’t believe it. This letter is even worse!

Two depressing letters, and on Christmas Eve of all days! Wow.

Anyway, Rosie saw me and thought I looked broke. So she gave me an illusion wall for free, and told me to sell it to get some money.

She said she was broke too, but friends have to help each other out. She’s so sweet.

Just a few other quick notes:

• I gave Benedict medicine Saturday and then again today.
• Margie tried to move out Sunday, but I stopped her.
• Crazy Redd had a perfect painting for sale; I didn’t need it.

No change in my town status yet. I have been a bit busy with holiday stuff though, so I haven’t been planting as many trees as I need to. Hopefully at some point soon I’ll get there.

Happy holidays, everyone! Have a great Christmas (if you celebrate) and I’ll see you next time.
