3 Generation Household

On Christmas of 2005 I mentioned to my father that Loretta and I would like to have Mom and him move in with us. They are still quite healthy and active, but they do like to travel for weeks and sometimes months at a time in their RV. It would be a great thing for them to be free from the worries of homeownership. It would be particularly good to be free from those worries while they are hundreds of miles away.

Six months later I had bought a new house on a large property. Four months after that we broke ground on an apartment to build onto the house for them. They left in early January to winter in Florida while the construction continued. On April 4th (that is two weeks from this writing) Dad and Mom will drive their rolling condominium into our driveway and be able to walk into their new home-not-on-wheels.

It is an intense time as not everything is ready. The Devil is in the details, as they say, and I am seeking deliverance! Two weeks is too long to hold my breath, so I will just have to cowboy up and get 'er done!

Keep an eye out on BuecheNet for updated pictures and bios. You can go there now and see the early stages of the addition. Between the addition, the children's school work, my work and the dreaded tax man coming soon, I hope to squeeze in a BuecheNet update soon.
