    Naomi(one of mine): time to go mining, better cook something to take with me.
    Oh I forgot to pet my cat.
    I should get some lumber.
    Wasn't I going to do something? Cook to go mining...gave my food as presents.
    Cook some more.
    My jam is done, and my inventory is full better sell the extras.
    Oh I have to go mining.
    Gets distracted by Elliot.
    Then Alex.
    Then Sebastian.
    Then Harvey.
    Talks to a few more people.
    It's getting dark what was going to do...talk to wizard.
    Right mining!
    Goes to the try fishing again....
    Time for bed.
    Forgot to feed my animals, shame on me.
    In bed...what was I going to do today?
    ....yes this happened several times while playing for several days in game...and I realized just now that I still have not gone into the mines to get the cave carrots I need lol.

    Feel free to share your moments with me though I doubt anyone is as easily distracted as I am. :D

      Start to get stuff together to go to Robin to upgrade house.
      End up reorganizing inventory.
      Leave house and do rounds of fishing.
      Get to Robin's House, stare at it in consideration for several seconds.
      Go to mine instead.
      Progress down three floors, realize that inventory is full of stuff because I was going to upgrade house.
      Torn between getting next elevator and leaving to lodge order.
      Decide to finish getting next elevator.
      Wind up getting next two elevators instead of the one.
      Leave mine, go to Robin's.
      She isn't at work.
      Shrug and give Sebastian and Maru quartz while making metaphorical middle finger to Demetrius.
      Decide to try to give Abigail gift.
      Not at Pierre's.
      Not at Beach.
      Not at Rasmodius' tower.
      Not at Saloo- oh hai Shane.
      Buy Shane drink, spend 30 minutes in game more or less hanging out with him despite lack of cycling dialogue.
      Whoops, it's ten PM.
      See Abigail on way back to farm. 'What was I going to do again?'
      Ships gems/minerals.
      Goes to sleep.
      Crap I never gave Abigail the thing.

      And this is why I have yet to get Abigail past 4 hearts.

            Lol glad I'm not the only one, I didn't know that good luck could effect the geodes though I've never had one processed on any other day so I guess that's good :D I usually just talk to Abby if I don't have flowers on the off chance I want to go to the store to jump in parent's bed for no reason...hehe.

                Well considering I chased butterflies for almost half a season (The first season first year) umm... Yeah I got a few things done aimlessly. Now even on year 2 almost summer I haven't really got a big farm, and more or less barely touched fishing. At least the relationships around town is doing well. Anyone that I crossed paths with I talk to.

                I get distracted easily, but... I also have a high focus on the primary things I want to do. I make those plans pretty broad, so I if I do miss one I am to note and get it done later. Not the most distracted, just enough to get side tracked into a chain of other things; as this game is quite a beauty to just roam around picking and looking for forage. :nuruhappy:

                    For me it's usually coupled with a lot of tunnel vision.

                    Okay! Today I'm going to give this freaking gift to Sebastian because today is his birthday and then I'll go break geodes and then go mining!
                    Oops, but first of all gotta take care of things here..

                      Man...that was me on Elliot's birthday my first year first run where I was just starting to try to make friends so I didn't have him at two hearts thus couldn't enter his house. So it was half the day of me going "is he home? But what if I go to look for him and I miss him? ELLIOT. COME OUT OF YOUR HOUSE SO I CAN GIVE YOU THIS LOBSTER! BECOME MY FRIEND."

                      Half the time I kind of feel like I'm the weird creepy person who just stands outside folks house and are like "oh! Hey there! Fancy meeting you right outside your house at 8AM. Here's your salad. Take care." before proceeding to run off to Robin's house to wait in the stairwell to Sebastian's room to throw a frozen tear at his face. The worst is Jas cause she'll be like "I'm not supposed to talk to strangers" and "I don't know you" and I am all "I am sorry little girl! Just take this flower anyways ok!"

                          This game forgot to mention that it makes stalking a near full time job, I keep a reasonably sized farm just so I can stand outside people's houses, now if more of them hung out at the saloon or something I could stalk them less. Actually after playing for a bit I should be used to when I can and can't get in Pierre's shop, but I was too early ah well I can just stand outside as close to the glass door as possible no biggie. lol

                            I didn't know the bowl could be filled until I got married in year 2 and Harvey did it for me for the first time in a year and half a season.

                            There are ponds nearby, though, so my headcanon is that that's where it's been getting its water.

                            :p

                                    it's the little dish next to the wood area your pet sometimes sleeps on.

                                    hah you guys make me laugh, you know I am doing something right making money to get my things going Harvey is already at four hearts so I'll probably end up married to him first.
                                    so after hoping my attention span would get better I still forget things, it's not my fault my brain finds the music soothing and I just get relaxed while playing. Started the day by clearing space for more crops, have the money, wood and stone for the silo so I rush over to get it. Notice what I had, somehow after I just finished with my test save I forgot what else I needed for the silo. Went down in the mine to get coal, didn't find any so I thought I would just go buy some I see that it's almost four thirty. 'Oh hey if I hurry I can get to the shop!' nope it closes at four which I should have known lol. Then I realized I hadn't really talked to anyone and I still hadn't planted my new seeds which for some reason I had been staring at but though I planted...lol.
