New Year, New Home

Finally, after almost 2 decades of renting a flat a Germany, mom and stepdad embarked in a new adventure- home ownership. They bought a duplex early December last year (the other half of the duplex already occupied by my brother and his family). They wanted to move-in before Christmas but the renovation team was a bit slow so the move was pushed back to this coming Saturday. She has a lot of friends who offered to help with the cleaning and moving, but you can just imagine the stress mom is having right now. She won't be needing diet pills to shed the pounds because the stress will do it her. I'll be glad when this is over!
