Survey #174 Response from Anja
| Pronouns | She/her |
|---|---|
| Which member(s) of your household support or contribute to your decluttering or organizing efforts, and how? (For example, “My husband keeps the home office and his workshop organized.”) | My wonderful husband does a lot of work and agreed to hire help that has decluttered with him in his room immensely. Decluttering and organizing is just a great project to commit to for both of us. |
| Which member(s) of your household frustrate, foil, interrupt, or otherwise complicate your decluttering or organizing efforts, and how? (For example, “My preteen child picks through the donation box to retrieve items even after we’ve reached agreement to get rid of them.”) | Sometimes my husband's behaviour irritates me because his organizing style is very different from mine but we keep talking and adjusting and that is such a great gift. |
| If you were to wish for one change of behavior from someone—or everyone—in your household with respect to clutter, what change would you wish for? (For example, “My preteen child picks through the donation box to retrieve items even after we’ve reached agreement to get rid of them.”) | My husband stops any kind of stuff shuffeling but always puts everything in it's proper home rightaway. |
| Describe an item about which you have a strong disagreement with someone else in your household over whether or not it deserves a place in your home. (For example, “My mother’s 30 years of TV Guide magazines.”) | My husband's (already downsized) archive of project work which he always say he will work with when he is retired. These decades old paper piles and files take up so much room in our small storage room in the house. *sigh* |
| 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. | I am so curious about the book you are working on! Can you tell us a little bit about it? |
| Future topics | How to tell what you really want to keep and what to toss? Last week I threw away ALL my remaining cassette tapes and gave away my double tape deck with the help of a professional organizer. I had already digitalized what I had really wanted to hang on to. Less burdon and I love the additional room this gives me! Wahooo! |
