Game won't load into my household

When I attempt to load into my household it shows that it’s loading and then proceeds to open right back into the world map. A couple of times it showed a flashing blue box down in the corner of the screen, as if the game itself is glitching, which is shown in the image attached to my post. I repaired the game through Steam and checked my mods but it’s still doing the same thing. I also just downloaded new content into my game from the sale, so I don’t know if that’s part of the issue, but my game has never done this before.
