Survey #209 Response from Debra

April 22, 2024

PronounsShe/her
Name up to three clutter problem areas in your home. These may be physical spaces, categories of stuff, or collections of items that you usually or chronically find difficult to get clear—or keep clear—of clutter.The worst space is my desk and working through paperwork
For any of the problem areas you identified in your answer to the previous question, list factors that contribute to your difficulty decluttering in these areas.Local bureaucracy. It’s incredible.
Name up to three clutter “sweet spots” in your home. These may be physical spaces, categories of stuff, or collections of items that you usually find relatively easy to keep decluttered and organized.I have no problem keeping things decluttered except insistent paperwork which has to be dealt with. It’s not filing—I have good systems in place— it’s all the non-stop yak-shaving bureaucracy in Austria and Germany.
For any of the “sweet spots” you identified in your answer to the previous question, list factors that contribute to your ease in (or even enjoyment of) maintaining these areas.I have „Dailies“, meaning daily things I aim to get done. They range from the very obvious (making my bed, showering, cleaning the (separate rooms) bathroom and the toilet, cleaning the kitty litter, taking out compost and recycling to the city bins) to physical exercise, etc.
I don’t like a lot of clutter so if there’s something away from its „home“ I follow the 1-minute“ rule and put it away immediately.
What’s an item or category of stuff that you feel as if you could never get too much of?It used to be books but now i only keep DT books which were written by friends or are particularly special to me. Otherwise it’s all kindle or audiobooks.
Now I think it’s probably clothes, because it’s not easy to find them in my personal trifecta: style, fit, price
