Bitterly sweet sides of life.

I have read a post on FB once, that read something on the lines of: Giving people a second chance is like handing them a second bullet because they missed the shot the first time.
I hope this doesn't apply to the second chance that I've given my mum, I don't even know if I could take a 'second shot', theoretically speaking.
But I have given her another chance.
I have yet to speak to my second eldest DD. There are issues still there, that, and it might just take a little more time, and a lot more thought, before I can figure out what to do. Building bridges doesn't happen over night, especially not bridges that run through your mind and heart.
