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:
  • “It’s hard for me to let go of my children’s stuff because…”
  • “I’m eager to get rid of some of my children’s stuff so that I will be able to…”
I feel guilty about not spending enough time with them when they were home. These things have memories about when they were young. They do not feel I didn't spend enough time with them as I only worked part time and I was home but was distracted with keeping my house neat.

#2. I want them to take their stuff so I can use the space and not have to deal with their childhood belongings and the guild to get rid of their stuff
What environmental or social issues most concern you with respect to your efforts to declutter, organize, and maintain your home?I want my unneeded things to go to good homes not in land fills. We first try and sell then reduce prices then give away before going to garbage.
What outdoor activity or activities tend to take time away from your indoor chores in the warmer months?Gardening, lawn
