| Express your gratitude for something in your home that you plan to keep indefinitely. How does it support the life you love? | This is a really tough question for me. Supporting the life I love leads me to think I should be thinking of an appliance. I’m very grateful for the InstantPot because it often makes the difference between eating smart and not-so-smart. It helps to motivate me to prepare healthy and delicious soups or to quickly prepare a meat meal and even to easily get brown basmati rice quickly and without thinking. I super-appreciate that it’s easy to clean, super-easy to choose the settings, and that it switches to warm when cooking is completed. Thank you InstantPot duo 6 litre, 💐. |
| Describe someone or something that has helped you on your decluttering and organizing journey. This may be an idea, a story, a person, a book, a resource, etc. | I am grateful for the professionals, like Gayle and Ed, who are in there week in and week out to answer our questions about all things decluttering and organizing, and for teaching, guiding and cheering us along our journey. Where would I and others be without them? |
| Describe something that you’re grateful for having been able to declutter and release from your life. | Another tough question. This one is something I managed to declutter years ago and before Marie Kondo and so many others hit the scene. I am grateful that I was able to persuade myself to declutter all my Years 1 to 3 of the Oprah magazine, all my gardening magazines, and all but about five magazines. Talk about a huge weight off my shoulder plus all the space it opened up. I never again subscribed to magazines. Life’s too short. |
| Identify something in your space for which you feel grateful, but which you’d consider releasing so that someone else can enjoy and appreciate it. | Sneaky question Gayle and Ed 😸. Let me think on that. I guess it would be easier if someone happened to mention something they’d enjoy and appreciate so I could instantly find out if I’d consider releasing it. |
| 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. | It continues to baffle me how years ago I managed to live a good life with little in the house, as my parents and grand-parents before me did. So why do I feel the need to keep all these items, or feel fear at the idea of not having them? Strange, huh? |
