What do you have to say about this? Have times changed?
I still see a lot of well kept homes on the outside and visit a lot of well kept homes on the inside here in The Villages. I haven't been in anyone's home that was dingy or not well ordered here.
Are we too scrupulous as a group or just right? How do our children and grandchildren approach this subject? Were we silly or right about our standards for cleanliness of boomers or better?

I was taught that if I saw something that needed doing, I should do it and further, that if anything was worth doing, it was worth doing right or not at all. So yeah, I ended up a bit of a neat freak that I swear borders on OCD sometimes (OK, maybe a lot of the time). But I live in a clean and orderly home (to the extent I have control over that). Those same principles served me very well in my career as a software engineer, so I think that all things considered its a net positive.
