Survey #207 Response from Anonymous user
| Pronouns | She/her |

| Which of the following statements best describes your living situation? | I’m an “empty nester” who still stores a significant amount of my child’s/children’s stuff in my home. |
Please complete one or both of the following statements:
| Both! It is very difficult because of the memories attached and significant workload involved in getting rid of it. I'm eager to get rid of it because the space will feel better clean and empty and make it easier for me to move (planning to downsize in a few months). |
| What environmental or social issues most concern you with respect to your efforts to declutter, organize, and maintain your home? | I feel like some things are of value and shouldn't go to the landfill. And it takes a lot more time and effort to sort through it all and find homes for things than it would to just get it hauled away. |
| What outdoor activity or activities tend to take time away from your indoor chores in the warmer months? | Spring clean up in the yard and garden. (This year it is more like a renovation because winter weather was extra damaging). Setting the outdoor areas and furniture up. |
| 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). | Do you have any suggestions on how to stay motivated and not feel overwhelmed by very large projects (my house is stuffed and I'm the last one to leave). |
| Future topics | Moving tips? One house full of stuff, one person left to do it. (I bet you already have some episodes re this, sorry I haven't checked again before answering this.). Thanks |
