Survey #217 Response from Anonymous user
| Do you consider yourself a "morning person," a "night owl," or somewhere in between? | Night owl |
|---|---|
| What are the trouble spots in your daily routine or your family’s routines? In other words, where do you find your habits and routines breaking down on a regular basis? | I don't have a daily routine that includes household maintenance, although I have begun creating some habits that will prevent clutter. The weak link concerning decluttering is interruptions by friends and neighbors who are lonely, demanding, sick, bored, senile, or any combination of the above. I drop everything to be a friend rather than put them off. |
| What aspects of your home (the size, the layout, the contents, the organization of those contents, other household members, etc.) either contribute to or detract from your ability to cultivate and execute productive and useful routines? | I live in an apartment building, and have multiple chemical sensitivity, so can be struck ill without notice if a neighbor smokes, someone uses pesticide or scented candles; if my window is open when someone uses dryer sheets, etc. Then, any project is immediately impossible to do, as thinking is then very difficult, and even walking is a struggle. Recovery can take days, provided I can avoid further exposures. By the time I recover, other matters are usually more pressing. |
| What daily (or frequent) chore would you like to wave a magic Clutter Fairy wand to remove from your routine? | Take over the kitchen, preparing the special diet I am forced to follow, and cleaning up afterwards. |
| 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). If we think that your question—and our answer—might be useful or instructive to The Clutter Fairy Weekly audience, we’ll share them in an upcoming episode. | How do you manage maintenance and saily chores when you are ill? |
