Name up to three clutter problem areas in your home. These may be physical spaces, categories of stuff, or collections of items that you usually or chronically find difficult to get clear—or keep clear—of clutter.The catch all drawer. I clean and organize it regularly and yet after a month it seems like I have to start all over. It is full of things I use, but it seems to get out of hand quickly.

My pantry. My kitchen is tiny and lacks drawers so my pantry not only has food, but my flatware, aluminum foil, bags and my hand mixer.
For any of the problem areas you identified in your answer to the previous question, list factors that contribute to your difficulty decluttering in these areas.I think the need to be prepared and also the lack of storage in the kitchen is a killer
Name up to three clutter “sweet spots” in your home. These may be physical spaces, categories of stuff, or collections of items that you usually find relatively easy to keep decluttered and organized.My pictures. It is because I really enjoy doing photo books so keep up with them and they never get behind. In fact I wish I had more photos to organize.
For any of the “sweet spots” you identified in your answer to the previous question, list factors that contribute to your ease in (or even enjoyment of) maintaining these areas.My pictures bring me joy. Such great memories.
What’s an item or category of stuff that you feel as if you could never get too much of??
