Survey #184 Response from Sarah
| Pronouns | They/them |
|---|---|
| Describe an item or collection that you’re rationally prepared to release, but something always seems to keep you from making the final decision to let it go. | My mom's swivel rocker chair that she bought at Salvation Army. |
| How do you feel when you think about letting go of the item you described in your answer to the previous question? | Mixture of the two. Bittersweet. Sadness that Mom is no longer around. Pleasant memories of her sitting in that chair watching TV. |
| Complete the following statement: “I know I won’t keep this item forever, so I would like ___.” | ... to remember Mom peacefully relaxing and enjoying watching TV in her retirement years. |
| Fill in the blank: “Watching and listening to The Clutter Fairy Weekly makes me want to try ___.” | Using my skills of connecting with others on a deep level to help them accomplish more of what they want in life. |
| Name one or more of your favorite Clutter Fairy-isms (e.g., “thin the herd”) or decluttering and organizing mnemonic devices (e.g., OHIO—Only Handle It Once). | From this episode - Trust in the river. |
| 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). | I have ADHD and recently discovered that I am autistic as well. I have found information about ADHD struggles around cleaning/decluttering/organizing. What are common struggles you see that autistic people have with clutter and organizing? |
| Future topics | Home repair and home improvement projects while decluttering. I have had multiple major projects this year (HVAC, Plumbing, Drywall/Framing, Windows) where I've had to move a bunch of stuff out of the way for repair folk, disrupting my daily flow and process followed by shifting items again for different repair folk, etc. and it's been maddening. |
