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 would like to do better with this problem...Saving my "best stuff" for later... like saving my best clothing and shoes , best dishes, best table linens, even good stationary. So it just sits there getting old.

I do Not save the best for later.... with food, cosmetics, kitchenwares, jewelry
Future topics

EARTH DAY IS AROUND APRIL 22 THIS YEAR! I would love your ideas on picking one area of decluttering to celebrate earth day . ( I think I am buying too many clothes. I think the solution might be to "spend some quality time" with the clothes I already have. Like for me to organize and store them better.)
But your advice to stop buying more stuff, is the most important, and has become a mantra for me. And your advice of putting things out on the curb or donating, is so much better than it going into a landfill.
