Pigs have entered the mix now 🙃 I gathered enough points for a few more tickets and I’m still only seeing barnyard villagers. I may just autofill and see who I get

The Animal Crossing gods really want my forever island to be farmcore. All I’ve found so far on my villager hunt are chickens and cows 😅 I may have to accept my fate soon because I don’t have a lot of tickets

I just started playing again a few days ago, but I couldn’t resist the pink cat. I love that they dance with you 🥹

Acnh island map with resident services directly in front of the airport with barely any space between

Proof I’m not exaggerating about proximity 😂

I’m having the worst luck I’ve ever had with island maps. I keep getting 3 with 2 south rivers and then 1 with resident services right at the airport. I’m not picky I just care about those 2 things, so it shouldn’t be this hard 😅 #acnh

I think I’m going to transfer Creamsicle (pastel Kidcore island) over to an old switch of mine and put it on pause and start an island that I play the game as intended on my switch 2 and rotate between that one and MurkyMarsh my abandoned zen island. It’s been a long time since I played in real time

I’m really liking it so far! It’s nice to be eager to read again

An early morning stroll (ignore the buildings on the beach)

Calico cat laying on a chair

Earlier while I was playing ACNH on the couch my cat was sitting beside me staring up at me and purring away 🥹

(Not from today, but thought I should include a photo of her)

Swampy marsh area with lots of small sections of land filled with flowers and decor

Another view of the pond

Better view of the middle section and the museum

Overview

I’m still working on it a little, but the area is mostly finished. I wanted to keep most of the land pieces accessible to leap frog across

Map for MurkyMarsh. Only the bottom right side of the map has been developed so far

My character standing in front of a large pond with small land areas spread around for decoration

Today’s project 👷🏻‍♀️ working on a swampy marsh area

Me too! I’ve mostly been setting the time to 5am while working on this island

My character in front of her house. There’s a cliff on the left and some decor including an orange cat on a bamboo bench

A better view of the trail beside my house

This area feels so peaceful, especially at 5am

I have so many ACNH island ideas for future islands or slumber islands but first I have to finish one of the 2 I’m working on because I don’t need 3 going at once 😅

My coworkers have really made sure to spread the news that it’s my birthday 😅 I’ve had a lot of patients calling me over to say happy birthday

Island progress so far for MurkyMarsh. The area is still a work in progress, but I wanted to share

#acnh #AnimalCrossingNewHorizons #AnimalCrossing

I went out for an early birthday dinner tonight since I work on my actual birthday and I burnt my finger (and mouth) on a pickle. A deep fried pickle to be specific (that’s just not as funny to say). My mouth isn’t too bad, but my finger got burnt pretty badly 😩 rough birthday celebration

Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo on a white duvet. There’s a magnetic bookmark beside it of a white bunny holding a knife in its mouth that says “can’t spell cute without cut”

Next read 📖 I finished Kill Joy by Holly Jackson yesterday and didn’t love it, so hopefully I have better luck with Ninth House. I’ve had this on my TBR for years now

I usually try to go in with a general theme in mind when I restart an island to give me some direction, but I often end up changing it as I go along and the theme starts to get a little more vague a lot of the time

Originally I wanted to do Swampcore, but I’ve since shifted to more of an overgrown/abandoned zencore. I haven’t quite nailed down the theme yet 😅 my other island is a pastel Kidcore, that’s an easy one to name haha

River mouth area. There’s small land sections in the river with decorations

Nate fishing in the tiny pond for the bridge by my entrance

Nate and I taking a little break by a tree

Mostly flat and blank map. There’s a cliff at the entrance and a section of river behind the museum tent

Started working on the area beside my entrance, but I think it’ll need more tweaking

Hung out with Nate a few times today while working on the island

Flattened map (with a few exceptions)

My character surrounded by cliffs she’s tearing down to flatten the island

Almost done tearing down cliffs finally 😅

Day of the dead nurse tattoo covering my full calf

It’s hard to believe this was 7 years ago. Time flies

#tattoo

I’m having one of those days where nothing is really holding my attention 🙃

before n after !!~ ☀️

this took soo long but I decorated Chevre n Nan’s farm this morn !! next I’ll probably get to working on Mirkwood’s area ( ´ ˘ `)

Chrissy all packed up

Nate and I on the beach

Chrissy asked to leave and as cute as she is, she doesn’t fit this island (she would fit my other one perfectly though). I decided to invite Nate to keep Grizzly company #acnh
