Out of contol!

Ok, I'm starting out by starting up my blog again.  I recently retired and noticed I had really let my house get out of hand.  I have a disability with my back and neck and I let my pain take over my life and just went to work came home got supper done and that was about it.  On weekends I did the necessary laundry but nothing else. My house as you can imagine is a disaster.  This is hard to admit but my youngest daughter won't even bring my grandson or her boyfriend over because it's too dirty.  I can't have friends or family over either.  How did I let it get so out of control? It was so easy to just go to work, come home make supper and sit and watch TV every night and not do anything.   On weekends we would go out and do things and the house got neglected.  Several years ago I hurt my back by falling down the stairs and my health went downhill. I have Degenerative Disc Disease and some other things wrong with my back and neck. I've had several surgeries through the years and I used the pain not to do anything. When I was younger and my daughters were young I had a decent home.  I wasn't the best housekeeper but we could have guests over. We can not have anybody over now.  I recently retired and the first month I was doing the same thing, Nothing! Now I have opened my eyes and want things to change for the better.  I want control over my life and my house.  I want my daughter and my grandson to be able to come visit me and not be afraid of germs.  I know it won't happen overnight but I've been doing a little every day.  I still have health problems but I'm not going to let it take over my life, I'm going to work to improve my life and home.
