Survey #224 Response from Ginger

What is your unique or unusual decluttering or organizing challenge? In other words, what collection, set of items, or area in your home presents organizing issues that most other declutterers probably never face?▪️My mother’s suite still sits here untouched since her passing at the end of 2022. I gave myself a year to just not deal with it. We were going through a lot and both my husband and I needed time to heal.
I decided I would tackle it in February 2024. Instead - I decluttered all over the rest of our home and put it all in Mom’s bedroom. It seemed like a good idea at the time.
▪️And… then there’s my art studio (off the garage) which became a storage place for some of Mom’s & Dad’s personal belongings. And… a graveyard for my earlier attempts at decluttering when I didn’t want to let go of some stuff. Like good boxes. 🙄
▪️So, I’ve got my work cut-out for me. The good news is - I’m feeling good. My energy is much improved. I’ve lost 60 pounds in the past year.
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.Have either of you set any arbitrary rules or limits to keep your own possessions from becoming clutter? Do you do regular decluttering rounds thru your own homes?
