Survey #201 Response from Anonymous user
| Describe an experience in which clutter—yours or someone else’s—had a negative impact on a relationship. The relationship in question may be one of yours or someone else’s that you’ve observed. | My sons held back from inviting other than friends from our street for most of their school years. I think a girlfriend was even lost to one because she never made it through the doors, even when she badly wanted to place his gift under our Christmas tree. As adults my children have experiences of what they missed out on because of clutter. 😓 |

| Describe an item that evokes a strong association or memories of a person you love, whether that person is still living or gone. This may be something you still own, something you’ve let go, or just an object of which you have a vivid memory. | I have a decor item from the ‘70 of 2 red hearts with a groovy LOVE across it. Remember the wall art fad that was melted plastic in whatever shape with minimal solid colours? Like a yellow circle with the black dot eyes and smile? I got my LOVE wall hanging when Mom and Dad returned from one of their 2 driving vacations. 6 pieces and I’m guessing my being the oldest of 6, I chose first or fastest. It went with my sister’s and my bright beautiful red shag carpet. I felt loved every minute of every day. |
| How might reducing your clutter or making your home more organized affect your most important relationships, for better or for worse? If you live alone and/or don’t feel that your stuff affects any of your relationships, you may answer this question instead: How might reducing your clutter or making your home more organized affect your health, happiness, wellbeing, attitude, or mood? | Reducing clutter AND making my home more organized affects my relationship with my sons for the better. Bit by bit it alleviates the mental burden and level of dread they are expecting to deal with upon my death. It also allows them and me to have more fun when we’re together because it is so easy to get a meal going or pull out a game to play. And I feel so much better when anyone wants something that they remember not having a home and I can direct them exactly to where the item now has a home. |
| Choose the option that best describes your feelings about Valentine’s Day: | It’s a B.S. “Hallmark holiday” designed to sell jewelry, greeting cards, stuffed animals, and candy. |
