March 2, 2024

PronounsThey/them
How would you rank paper clutter among the categories of stuff that you have difficulty managing?Paper is my #1 clutter issue.
For which of the following types of paper clutter would you like to get help and/or advice? (Check all that apply.)
  • Junk mail**
  • Medical
  • Manuals and warranties
  • Lists and notes
  • Reading material
  • School papers (notes, handouts, etc.)
What type of paper clutter that you struggle with did we leave off the list above?various kinds of paper for art projects (sketchbooks, origami, cardstock0, completed paper art projects
Please complete any of the following statements:
  • “I struggle with paper clutter because ___.”
  • “I would have an easier time managing paper if only ___.”
  • “The accumulation of paper in my home makes me feel ___.”
I struggle with paper clutter because I am obsessive about having complete medical records, financial records (going back decades).
I would have an easier time managing paper if every month I eliminated some paper records from that same month a year ago and once a year eliminated some paper records from 7 or 10 years ago. Also, only keep as much paper records as will fit in my rather large safe deposit box.
The accumulation of paper in my home makes me feel overwhelmed, tired and out of control.
Tell us about your most treasured paper item.Hand water-colored notebook from a college course on Plant Physiology (50 years old) (got an A+)
Future topics

Celebrating that my attic is absolutely clear of 36+ years accumulation (that's not to say some of it is still in living room and second bedroom).
