Survey #174 Response from Anita
| Pronouns | She/her |
|---|---|
| Which member(s) of your household support or contribute to your decluttering or organizing efforts, and how? (For example, “My husband keeps the home office and his workshop organized.”) | Husband has been sorting, thinning and making notes for distribution of his many collectibles. Kids have been prompt for n answering my email or text questions about “Do any of you want this thingamajig?” |
| Which member(s) of your household frustrate, foil, interrupt, or otherwise complicate your decluttering or organizing efforts, and how? (For example, “My preteen child picks through the donation box to retrieve items even after we’ve reached agreement to get rid of them.”) | Husband sees No Rush in making decisions about stuff. This lowers my energy or raises my frustration |
| If you were to wish for one change of behavior from someone—or everyone—in your household with respect to clutter, what change would you wish for? (For example, “My preteen child picks through the donation box to retrieve items even after we’ve reached agreement to get rid of them.”) | Encouragement for our progress… a shared satisfaction as spaces are opened up. |
| Describe an item about which you have a strong disagreement with someone else in your household over whether or not it deserves a place in your home. (For example, “My mother’s 30 years of TV Guide magazines.”) | My deceased father’s old console tv in the basement with its videotape player and stacks of tapes. Yes, “we could “ watch those tapes while on the treadmill… but we don’t! |
| Here’s your chance to ask Gayle and Ed any question you’re curious about. It need not be related to this survey’s topic(s). If we think that your question—and our answer—might be useful or instructive to The Clutter Fairy Weekly audience, we’ll share them in an upcoming episode. | Oh the photo overwhelm! Mine and the ones sent by adult children with grandkid cuteness - through multiple technologies, across Apple and Android systems, involving phone and PC and cloud storage? The technology itself overwhelms me, and volume just grows and grows. |
