| What is your clutter keeping you from having, from being, or from doing? Describe how your life would be different if all of your clutter disappeared overnight. What new—or familiar—activities, experiences, or things would you invite into your space? | I assume that my partner's clutter would disappear as well. I would probably spend no more time watching videos on decluttering. This would give me more time for MOOCS and other subjects I am interested in. Since I'm already pretty successful at limiting the inflow and at keeping up with maintenance, I'd have more time for other activities that I now spend on decluttering projects. A probable downside to an absence of clutter: I could no longer (ab)use decluttering activities as a means of spontaneous procrastination :o) |
| Describe an item in your home that you feel as if you couldn’t live without. What meaning or significance does this item hold for you? What feelings does it evoke? Do you love it? Need it? Use it regularly? Feel a sense of obligation about it? (And so on.) | My computer and my cell phone. They provide access to distance communication, information and some enertainment. If I'm honest about it, I would probably need very little, apart from the very essentials I use for everyday living. |
| If you had to leave your home suddenly with no certainty of ever being able to return, what’s the one thing that you would take with you, and why? For purposes of this question, assume or pretend that you don’t have an emergency evacuation bag or kit prepared, and you only have time to grab one treasured item on your way out the door. | A petrified clam that I found on a shore on the island of Crete about 40 years ago. |
| 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. | What unique nonessential item would you grab in case of an emergency. |
