Can I just start TWRP and flash the new image on top of everything else? Do I need to wipe anything? Do I even need to start from the top and install CM13 again? Is there is possibility to retain my homedir?
You could backup your homedir using tar

Code:
 devel-su tar -cpvf /nemo.tar /home/nemo
backup the file, reflash, copy nemo.tar back to the root folder of your device and extract it using

Code:
 tar -xpvf nemo.tar -C /
.

Or try the OTA upgrade as described in this post:

I would do the backup and then OTA to the newest build...having a backup is always a good idea.

If you need help setting up the right repos for OTA feel free to ask.
