This unusual reverse may depict a tall wall with a door and 2 windows, or the upper layer could be a building that was actually within the city walls. Another possibility is that the lower layer represents the main gate in the city wall and the upper layer represents a section of the wall elsewhere that had 2 doors. (Ray Wilk)

Augustus 27 B.C.-14 A.D. Moneyer L. Vinicius. Rome Mint. 16 B.C. (3.72g, 18.8m, 5h). Obv: Anepigraphic, bare head right. Rev: L Vinicivs in ex., Triumphal arch inscribed SPQR IMP CAE in two lines sur. by Quadriga bearing Augustus, r. holding laurel-branch, l. scepter; smaller arch on sides w archer on l. and slinger on r. RIC I 359 (R2). RSC 544.
This coin depicts Augustus triple arch, perhaps the first in Rome. Beginning as a double arch to commemorate his victory at Actium, the third arch was probably added to commemorate the return of the lost standards from Parthia. For a scarce type, this example is well centered and has good details on the reverse including complete legends.

"Eryx was a son of Aphrodite and Butas, a certain native king of Sikelia (Sicily) of very great fame, and he was admired by the natives because of his noble birth on his mothers side and became king over a part of the island. He also founded a notable city which bore his name; it was set upon a lofty place, and on the highest point within the city he established a shrine of his mother, which he embellished not only with a beautifully built temple, but also with the multitude of his dedications.
The goddess, both because of the reverence which the inhabitants of the region paid to her and because of the honour which she received from the son whom she had borne, displayed an exceptional love for the city, and for this reason she came to be called Aphrodite Erykinia . . . After Eryx has bestowed upon it the honours we have described, Aeneas, the son of Aphrodite, when at a later time he was on his way to Italy and came to anchor off the island, embellished the sanctuary, since it was that of his own mother, with many votive offerings."

RIC 461b. RSC 240b. Unrecorded reverse die.
The construction of this temple dedicated to Roma and Augustus was started after the visit of the latter to the city in 29 BC. In 121 AD the city was destroyed by an earthquake so the image on the reverse is possibly that of the temple reconstructed under Hadrian who visited Nicomedia in 123 or 124 AD.

AR denarius. 42 BC. 4,02 grs. Diademed and veiled bust of Concordia right. CONCORDIA behind. / Platform inscribed CLOACIN on which there are two statues of Venus Cloacina. L. MVSSIDIVS LONGVS above.
Crawford 494/42a. RSC Mussidia 6b.
The shrine of Venus Cloacina,goddess of purity,filth,sexual intercourse and the divinity of the Cloaca Maxima,was a small sanctuary near the Tabernae Novae (prope cloacinae ad tabernas quibus nunc novis est nomen, Livy III.48) on the Roman Forum,in front of the Basilica Aemilia.
The origins of the cult possibly ,dates back to the founding of Rome and the rape of the Sabine women ( traditur myrtea verbena Romanos Sabinosque,cum propter raptas virgines dimicare voluissent,depositis armis purgatos in eo loco qui nunc signa Veneris Cloacinae habet, Pliny NH XV.119.)
The erection of the first shrine belongs probably to the first period in the history of the Cloaca Maxima.
The existing remains,discovered at the turn of the XIXth century (1899-1901),consist of a round marble base ( 2.40 mtrs.diameter) with a rectangular projection over a slab of travertine and eight courses of different types of stone. Nothing remains of the small round structure with a metal balustrade and the two female statues,one holding a flower ? and representing Venus Cloacina,that can be seen on the reverse of the coin.

This type was issued upon the completion of the restoration of the Great Provision Market on Caelium Hill in A.D. 59: the Macellum Augusti, also known as the Macellum Magnum. It was built by Augustus and restored by Nero. Part of it was later transformed to church S. Stefano Rotundo by Pope Simplicius.

This type seems to depict a triumphal arch erected in Marcianopolis. For the 4 figures on top will be no other interpretation possible than that suggested by A.v.Sallet (Cat. Berlin 58, 11) of the Imperial family...So we have in te middle Severus and Domna, on the l. side Caracalla and on the r. side a bit smaller Geta. The triumphal arch seems to be erected under Severus but appears not until Caracalla's sole reign, probably at the beginning because Geta is depicted too (Pick).

Pick: The depiction can show Zeus or more probably Serapis. The l. hand resting on the sceptre speaks for the first interpretation; the position of the r. hand is unclear. But Serapis occurs on a coin of Caracalla (n. 1529) in a similar attitude, and furthermore I think I can see a small kalathos on the head of the figure. Here a somewhat more precise depiction of the sanctuary as usual is intended shown by the trees whose crowns are overtopping the roof.
If it is Zeus who is depicted than it could be Zeus Keraunios, for whom a votiv inscription was found in Nikopolis.

Marcus Julius Verus Philippus, known as Philip I "The Arab," was the Praetorian Prefect, and successor to Gordian III whom he possibly had murdered. After signing a treaty with the Persians, he returned home. During his reign the 1000th anniversary of the foundation of Rome (248 A.D.) was celebrated, and magnificent games were held on a scale rarely seen. In 249 A.D. a series of rebellions occurred, both Philip and his son were killed after their army was defeated near Verona by the forces of Trajan Decius.

He was born in Arles (which was renamed Constantia in his honor in 328, explaining the CON mintmarks for Arles) and was made Caesar before he was a year old in 316 A.D. Upon his father`s death, Constantine II inherited the Western part of the empire. After quarrelling with his brother Constans, he invaded his territory, only to be killed in an ambush near Aquileia. His coins often include "IVN" in the legend, an abbreviation for junior.

RC #3786 var, Cohen #4
The Temple of Divus Romulus is a circular building with a concave facade preceded by columns on the Via Sacra. It was probably a temple for Romulus, the son of emperor Maxentius, but it has also been identified as the Temple of Jupiter Stator and as the sanctuary of the penates publici. The building is located between the Temple of Antoninus and Faustina and the Basilica of Maxentius.
When emperor Maxentius' son Romulus died in 307 CE, he was deified and hence a temple was built in his honour. Coins commemorating Romulus often depict a round building with a varying number columns in front. Some of them probably show the round mausoleum of Romulus on the Appian Way, others might portray the temple, which has led to the identification of the rotunda on the Via Sacra with the Temple of Divus Romulus. The location would be likely, given Maxentius' building activities nearby.

The second temple of Divus Augustus, was restored under Antoninus Pius in 158. The reliefs on the pediment cannot be identifed with certainty, but the statuary on the roof can be identified as Augustus in quadriga flanked by Romulus on the left and Aeneas carrying Anchises on the right.

The building was built after the death of Empress Faustina (141 A.C.) and was dedicated by the Senate to the deceased, who they declared a divinity. It was also dedicated to Emperor Antoninus Pio, as is stated on its facade. Around the seventh and eighth centuries, it became a Christian church, but its appearance today is mostly a result of the baroque modifications of Orazio Torriani (1601-14).

Due to the lack of any specific legend on the reverse, there has been a lot of speculation as to which temple might be depicted here. Some argue the temple to be that of Honos which had been restaured by Trajan a few years earlier. Others argue that it is the temple of Jupiter (later rededicated to Divus Traianus) also restaured by Trajan. According to others still, it is the temple of Venus Genetrix as the pose of central figure ressembles to statues of this divinity. Still others see Pax in the central figure and the temple is to be sought in the provinces. The central figure could well be Honos (compare with the left figure of the illustration in Numiswiki of HONOS ET VIRTUS).

The temple of Roma was designed by Hadrian (himself) in AD 121 and completed by Antoninus Pius in 141. It stood facing the forum, and was built back to back with the temple of Venus, which faced the Flavian Amphitheater. The two temples in one building were referred to as the Temple of Venus and Roma ("Templum Veneris et Romae"). Hadrian had to have the colossal statue of Nero removed in order to make room for the temples, which were built on the site of the vestibule of Nero's golden house. (He had Nero's statue placed near the entrance to the Ampitheater, and this provided the nickname, "Colloseum".) Their ruins prove both temples consisted of ten colums, and the coins suggest many decorative details.

Issued on the occasion of the completion of the temple of Venus and Roma in AD 141. This was the largest temple in Rome dedicated to Venus Felix (Happy Venus) and Roma Aeterna (Eternal Rome). Actually it consists of two temples back under one roof. It was designed by Hadrian himself (who, by the way, executed his architect for critisising the project) and dedicated by him in AD 135, and completed by Antoninus Pius.

The temple of Vesta in the Roman FORVM was destroyed in the great fire of 64 A.D. Nero was affected by the cult of Vesta, having felt faint during a visit to the temple shortly before the fire. Nero rebuilt the shrine. His structure, the sixth on the site, survived until another fire late in the reign of Commodus.

The countermark is found on other coins of Caracalla too. Not in Howgego. Actually it is not a real countermark, because it was engraved into the original die before (see coll. H.Agndal at FAC!). Ulrike Peters: This incus is known for Domna, Caracalla and Geta from AD 211. Possibly for some imperial privileges.
Topiros was situated some miles north of Abdera at the river Nestos.

Minted under Marcus Aurelius in joint reign with Verus, in honour of the funeral and deification of Antoninus Pius. Traditionally the structure on the reverse is called a Funeral Pyre, but there are good arguments to believe this is in fact a stone pyramide building called "ustrinum" where the ashes were kept: see an article at BeastCoins.

EA and Visceral Games have announced a downloadable prequel to Dead Space 2 which will be available this fall on XBLA and PSN. The game, Dead Space Ignition, was actually teased yesterday with a Dead Space 2 image which contained the subtitle in Unitology text. Of course, when we reported on that image (below), we didn't yet know what "ignition" referred to.
Ignition will be an "interactive comic-style game" which both introduces the storyline to new players and sets up the events of Dead Space 2. The game is described as a "unique 'Choose Your Own Adventure' type narrative" combined with three hacking mini-games: Hardware Crack, Trace Route and System Override. Why they use the word "unique" to describe the preexisting "Chose Your Own Adventure" genre isn't quite clear.
The game is written by Antony Johnston, the award-winning writer of comics, games, books and other such things who also wrote the Dead Space comics back in 2008. Since, aside from the mini-games, Ignition is interactive fiction, its success will probably rely almost entirely on the quality of the writing. Johnston is good, so it could work, but if it doesn't, you at least get special Dead Space 2 unlocks for beating it, like an exclusive suit for Isaac. So there's that!

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Tallulah!
Facts about Tallulah
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Tortoiseshell
- Age: Young
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Short
Tallulah's Info...
I am already spayed and up to date with shots.
Tallulah is a friendly and happy girl who ended up at animal control through not fault of her own and quickly caught an upper respiratory infection that was going around the shelter. She was about to be euthanized when we stepped in and rescued her. She's getting over her cold and is a sweet and curious kitty who would do well in many situations. She hasn't been exposed to other cats yet, so she would need an adopter willing to properly introduce her to an existing kitty. She is about three years old. Her adoption fee of $95 includes her spay, microchip, vaccines, and virus testing.
Other Pets at CARF: The Critical Animal Relief Foundation
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Tallulah, a Chicago Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Chicago, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in Chicago.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Chicago already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Chicago breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Chicago paves the way for another one to be saved.


text: Really airy and hollow so far lol. Still, if my hafx's break I don't really pay that much attention to detail when I go to class so they'd do fine as a throwaway pair or something. Also the packaging on this is LOL. They even included a drawstring carrying pouch. + 2 different tip sizes... pretty good for free. The carry case is nifty.

@trisha_51, If these posts don't have you running for the hills yet, then maybe I can help. Forget about led's right now. The technology just isn't there yet for the money you'll spend on a led fixture. Not to mention, I have yet to see any impressive results from led grown plants. Sure you will save some money on electricity, but if you go with fluorescent lighting, you will save money on the light to offset the electricity costs. Hope this helps. |

Buick Centurion Concept
Some cars just command attention and the Buick Centurion from 1956 is one eye-catching example. Taking design cues from the cockpit of an aeroplane, this bubble-top concept cuts through the air with ease, and its two-tone paintjob allows it to do so in style.
Although it probably has the turning circle of a P&O ferry, its 325bhp V8 engine meant it would be no slouch when pulling away from the lights, even if it did weigh nearly two tons.
More after the break...

I wanted liners but they were not available for my vehicle which is a 2-door Explorer Sport. The liners that did fit had a tall lip along the door opening which encumbered entry and exiting the vehicle I decided on the Flexomats that are made from a soft flexible rubber like material that stays in place and form fits the floor very well. Other mats that are made from a more plastic type of material, would slip and slide around, unlike the Fexomats! AutoAnything has always done well by me!

Reed Krakoff Spring 2013
Reed Krakoff's Spring 2013 collection was delicate in color, silhouette, and fabric. Neutral hues found themselves on everything from blazers to shorts to dresses to trousers. Loose-fitting clothes lent a relaxed vibe, while silky and sheer fabrics were super feminine. Hemlines were demure, with the exception of the shorts. There was a sporty air throughout the show thanks to elastic-waist pants and collarless jackets. Tuxedo pants screamed chic, collared blouses buttoned up all the way were strong, and lingerie-inspired styles provided a contrasting softness. The only pop of color on the catwalk was a few coral pieces and the only print was a snakeskin skirt.

Gun Control: Who Gets Control?
by Darian Worden
Supporting gun control laws means giving government more credit than it deserves. Government is an institution run and staffed by people with their own interests and personalities. Are they really any smarter, more competent, or less likely to escalate violence than the average person?
If anything, institutional interests and incentives combine with the difficulty of holding government actors accountable to make them more dangerous. The laws they enforce make them an even bigger threat to public safety. Government workers with assault weapons break into people�s homes if they are suspected of having unapproved medicine, haven�t paid off the banker, or happen to live at the wrong address. If those government workers feel threatened during their adrenaline rush they are liable to shoot the terrified residents and their pets � and get away with it. I wouldn�t feel any safer knowing that these were the only people who could legally buy 30-round magazines.
Dispersing the tools of personal defense among peaceable individuals and consensual communities makes life safer by reducing the power of (and indeed the perceived need for) militarized official protectors.
Of course, not everyone is average, and gun violence committed by private citizens is frightful. But the prevalence of violence often signals a power imbalance, usually government enforced.
Mass shootings often, but not always, take place in institutions of rigid hierarchy where an individual made powerless by the system sees aggressive violence as a means of empowerment through conquest. Such motivations can be limited through widespread personal empowerment based on respect for autonomy and the cultivation of responsibility rather than obedience.
True, not every mass shooting fits this pattern, and unfortunately it is doubtful that any society can entirely prevent murder. But it is possible to reduce the number of victims. The best way to do that is by reducing institutionalized dislocation and by encouraging people within the community to take responsibility for defense rather than calling on � and waiting for help from � government officials. Having powerful weapons with big magazines can help them accomplish this. After all, police departments point to active shooter scenarios to explain why they need the types of guns targeted by assault weapon bans.
Most deadly violence committed by private citizens occurs in areas suffering from institutionalized discrimination. Unofficial economic segregation leads to some areas getting the worst schools, the most hostile police forces, the lowest levels of investment, and the largest burden of environmental hazards. These are usually places where minority racial groups, targeted by the bigotry of the powerful, live. The Black Panthers recognized this; their gun-toting swagger was part of their community improvement and empowerment program.
Today government policy � carried out by the people gun control advocates trust with assault weapons � makes neighborhoods into drug war battlegrounds while local politics tries to isolate the problem into particular school districts. Youth are harassed and an obscene percentage of adults are imprisoned, stifling the potential for open and peaceful community development.
The original Black Panthers were not perfect, but remain instructive. They certainly got attention. Rebels at the bottom of every power imbalance can probably learn valuable lessons from their experience.
While we make society more compassionate � which cannot be done without cultivating respect for liberty and autonomy � we should respect the gun rights of all responsible individuals. It is amazing that an 18-year-old can vote and serve in the military, but cannot legally buy a handgun for personal defense, especially since it was once common for rural students to bring guns to school and leave them in the principal's office so they could go hunting before or after school. If guns are viewed as familiar but dangerous instead of as mysterious sources of forbidden power, they will probably be handled more responsibly.
The alternative to moving toward freedom is making society more prison-like, with heavily armed paramilitaries standing guard while those considered "off" are subject to "mental health" inquisitions. The path to greater responsibility, accountability, and compassion is found in the pursuit of liberty.

Cooby Dam is the oldest of the city's three water supply dams, constructed during the period 1938-41. This Dam is located about 17 km North of Toowoomba on Cooby Creek, a tributary of Condamine River.
The storage statistics of Cooby Dam are as follows:
- Total Catchment Area = 159 km2
- Storage Area = 306 ha (full supply)
- Maximum Available Storage = 21,166 ML
- Dead Storage = 1,462 ML
- Full Water Supply Useable Capacity = 19,703 ML
- Full Water Supply Level at Spillway = RL482.2 AHD

Archived Story
Now that's American
Published 12:00pm Tuesday, July 31, 2012This weekend's AMPalooza drew thousands to Lake Martin Amphitheater to enjoy the tunes of the Charlie Daniels Band with guests The Vegabonds, Rexton Lee and Brent Cobb.
"I think it went great," said Robert Gunn, events manager for Russell Lands. "It was great to have the Vegabonds back on stage again – they sounded as good as ever, maybe better than ever.
"Brent Cobb is a relative newcomer to country music but has written a lot of songs and is out pushing his own songs now," Gunn continued. "And I'd never had a chance to hear Rexton Lee and his band, but I was really impressed. And of course, Charlie Daniels did a great job, too."
Gunn estimated at least 2,700 people were in attendance and the weather couldn't have been better.
"At 5:30, the sun was still up and it was still pretty warm, but after the sun went down behind the trees, the shade started working for people," Gunn said. "We always have a nice breeze blowing at the amphitheater, and that helped. For the end of July, you couldn't have asked for a better day."
Event-goer Jessica Sanford described the event as "a lot of fun."
"My favorite band was Charlie Daniels, but the Vegabonds were really great," Sanford said. "I hadn't heard them before this time. And Charlie's on up there in age, but he still brought it."
Sanford said she attended the event with about 12 friends.
"We took a few towels and laid them out, packed up the coolers and had fun," Sanford said. "We try to support events anytime something local is going on. It brings so many people to the community, even if it's on the lake, and we need to support them if we want to keep having fun events."
Gunn said the AMP is already getting geared up for the next several events.
"We're getting ready for Obsessed this weekend and then Drive-By Truckers on Labor Day weekend," Gunn said.

We hope you all had a wonderful weekend and a great Mother's Day! It was nice to finally see the sun, for the last 6 days New England has been grey and dreary, very tough on the motivation.
The early arrival hummingbirds were happy to see the sun as well and were a bit more active on the feeders, last night after the family came over for MDay dinner we managed to capture some great footage. It is also nice to compare this time of year to later in August when the hummingbird population has quadrupled and there is a lot more competition around the feeders.
Here is a quick 3 min clip of some of the footage we got last night, enjoy the sneak peak!
NOTE: If you notice a stutter on playback, pause the video and let it buffer completely. If you have an older computer, it also helps to turn HD OFF in the top right corner.

"Is the SRP monopoly spending thousands of advertising dollars (consumer electrical power payments) to promote SRP or to promote Mayor Scott Smith's run for governor?"
"I think it's an incredible coincidence that every time I read the Letters to the Editor it always seems to be someone writing in to complain about the 'radical' (Gilbert) council members and school board members. Just a coincidence? I personally am glad this conservative community is pushing back against this out of control federal government. If you have a problem with it move to a more progressive community. We moved here because we believe in freedom."
"The character of an administration typically reflects the character of it leader. So far Obama is stacking up as more Nixon than Carter."
"The IRS targeting conservatives, that's almost as discusting as conservatives targeting minorities and the elderly with voter fraud laws. I guess the old saying what goes around comes around. I'll bet no conservatives had to stand in line hours for an audit."
"Yes, some heads should definitely roll at the IRS and the Justice Department, no question. However, to call your non-profit organization non-political and use the terms 'Tea Party' in the name of it is just begging for scrutiny. Many groups are abusing the non-profit tax rules."
"The headline reads 18 shows cancelled in 48 hours. It's hard to believe these shows were so bad that nobody was watching them. Everyone was probably watching the Jodi Arias trial instead."
"I think John McCain has beat Lou Gehrig's consecutive game record with his Sunday talk show appearances. I don't know why he doesn't have his own show called Benghazi up close and personal, he certainly has the time for it."

I love breakfast foods! I am a huge fan of fruits, especially berries. Anything homemade trumps restaurant food, although I do enjoy a nice dinner out on occasion. Famous Dave's is one of my favorites! I enjoy cooking, but I am very partial to baking.

There are a couple campaigns that are not yet official, but could be if some amount of public enthusiasm arrives.
Both potential candidates have platforms nearly identical to the New Progressive Alliance's Unified Progressive Platform: http://newprogs.org/unified-progressive-platform-ratified
Michael Fulks (OK-2) (I) championed a 4.3% as an Independent running for U.S House this year. This in one of the most restrictive ballot access states. As this one of the highest percentages for an alternative U.S. House candidate, he is considering another more organized run for U.S. House, 2014. Voice your enthusiasm here:

Couldn't have been more pleased with the results. Super fantastic! Made our Easter dinner! The only odd thing was that the crust mixture was twice the amount needed.
This is an outstanding dish that makes a beautiful presentation. It was surprisingly easy to prepare, too. And the sauce that accompanies it is sublime.
While this was very tasty, my crumb topping fell off while slicing the chops, so I did not feel it was worth all the effort of making the topping. The minted pea sauce was a hit and so easy.
I made this for Easter and everyone loved it! Tip: If you make the crust a day ahead, make sure it doesn't dry out in the refrigerator.

Uprooting whole tree - dream symbolism
THE DREAM I was in the garden at our old house with my husband and our two boys. It was a lovely sunny afternoon. The boys were riding their bikes on the grass. A great enormous old tree with a huge trunk but shortish branches was in the way. It had no leaves. I said to Tim, that tree is in the way of the boys having fun and riding their bikes. And it looks dead to me. He said yes it does look dead. I said I think we should take it away. He said yes good idea. He went away to get something to chop it down with. I went up to the tree and I put my arms around it and I lifted it out of the ground. I could not believe my strength. The tree came away in my arms even though it would have been 4 to 5 meters tall and I could not get may arms all the way around it. To my surprise the tree had no roots whatsoever. It was just literally like a pole, went about 1 metre into the ground, but no roots. I wondered why it had not fallen over before as it had no roots. For some reason I cannot explain I felt relieved that the tree had no roots and had come out so easily. I put it down on the grass. I looked down, the hole that was left was huge, it was way bigger than the tree had been, it was about 4 metres diameter, I did not know why. I looked into the hole and it had lots of giant fat worms, they were white, they had crinkles a bit like maggots but I thought of them as worms. I thought they were beautiful. I felt so happy to see the worms. I got my children to marvel at these amazing worms as I thought they were such beautiful worms and I had never seen worms like that before.
GUESSWORK The night before the dreamer was thinking about her mother. She had always had a bad relationship with her and has been physically and mentally abused. Her dominant thoughts the day before where feelings of neglect and abandonment. The dreamer had tried to make Christmas a time for bringing the family together and heal wounds. Instead her mother rejected these attempts.
The "Guesswork" stage of interpreting a dream involves spotting click here
1. The dreamer clearly was thinking about something that was clearly dead the night before. She was thinking about the state of her relationship with her mother. This was clearly dead.
2. The dream features family and a family home. That can be associated with anything family orientated. In this case the dreamer was thinking about her family the day before. Its quite possibly related to her feelings about family. 3. In the dream the tree was easy to uproot. That's suggesting that something in life is easier than the dreamer believes it to be. The dreamer constantly finds it difficult to give up on her mother. Yet her present intuitions are telling her to give up. That she is putting too much effort into something that is clearly not working. That she really has to cut out the dead wood and get on with things.
DREAM ANALYSIS In guesswork the dream was linked to the dreamers feelings about her mother. It deals with the following themes.
- Ending a relationship that is clearly not working.
- Family matters
- Something being much easier than the dreamer suspected
If you weave together the different themes you find that they could capture these thoughts -"I really put too much effort into making things better with my mother. I need to just cut myself off from her as the relationship is clearly not working."
