Day 340
Matthew got a deer yesterday. This is what she looked like before they butchered her. I'll spare you pictures of her being skinned and dismembered. :p

Day 338
Today I tried once again to give Andy money for the washer (maybe that'll be tomorrow's picture) and the half dozen packages he's gotten in the mail but he once again left work before I got there. :( So I was in Oakland four hours too early for institute and decided I deserved some pizza to sooth my pain. I made a bad choice though, and I should have realized it when I almost immediately flipped it over off the counter at Pizza Hut. It was my own fault so I didn't let them make me a new one. It didn't look THAT bad, right? I'd already eaten the cheese off the lid before I took this picture.
The second evidence of what a bad choice it was is how absolutely terrible I felt all evening from eating too much pizza. I couldn't even stand to try Sister Neal's giant peanut butter chocolate chip cookies! I did eat a little salad hoping the lettuce would push the pizza along and end the pain. Now at 10 I'm not feelin too bad, which just means I'm stupid enough to try eating something else when I get home. :p It was very delicious though. :)

Day 337 12-3
This is one of the wreaths I made at the Souper Saturday on November 17th. It was pretty easy, not as time consuming as the other one I made, but I was a bit unsure of the hot glue and the burlap. I also wasn't sure how to go about embellishing it. Some people were making amazing arrangements of ornaments and evergreen and flowers. I wasn't really willing to commit to a season, I mean red could be Thanksgiving, right? Eh, whatever, it was a fun day of crafts, I could've done many more.
Day 336 12-2-12
Here's the new car Dad got to replace the 2003 Chevy Cavalier. I should have taken a picture of it before it got traded in for this on Friday. This is a dark gray 2012 Chevy Sonic. I haven't been in it yet, but someday...

Day 335
Okay, so I totally flaked on this for the last three months. I've taken enough pictures I'm sure I could fill in the days, but they wouldn't truly be pictures of the day they'd be assigned so we'll just have to accept my failure and hope to do better in the future. Maybe I'll get a camera for Christmas and then I'll have the cord and everything right there and I can take better pictures every day. We will see. I'll likely have to get it for myself.
Tonight I went to a free concert at St Stanislaus church in the Strip. It was a lovely chapel with many paintings on the ceiling and walls and lots of statues. I'd have enjoyed poking around more. Some of the statues were creepily life-like. If I go back again some day maybe someone can tell me what Bible verses or whatever the different scenes are based on. At the front of the chapel there was a crown and Jesus on the cross with angels on top of a building that I don't know the significance of but it was interesting to look at during the performance. Here is a blurry look at it. I cropped it to get rid of the audience heads and tried to get some more details to stand out. I should just confidently walk into churches to explore them. Most of them have full-time employees, right? I mean if the door is unlocked probably someone is there to answer questions. I don't want to intrude, but I bet people like talking about the history of their churches.
