Survey #217 Response from Laurie
| Pronouns | She/her |
|---|---|
| Do you consider yourself a "morning person," a "night owl," or somewhere in between? | Neither |
| What are the trouble spots in your daily routine or your family’s routines? In other words, where do you find your habits and routines breaking down on a regular basis? | When I have an appointment (or my husband has an appointment because he likes me to go with him) that I need to go to, it throws off my daily routine, so I try to schedule as few appointments or obligations as possible. |
| What aspects of your home (the size, the layout, the contents, the organization of those contents, other household members, etc.) either contribute to or detract from your ability to cultivate and execute productive and useful routines? | I find my days are split between daily routines (brushing teeth, washing face, cooking, doing dishes, etc.), decluttering (reading watching videos and actively gathering and dropping donations) and working on DIY projects in our home. My husband and I recently were working in the kitchen removing the popcorn ceiling, putting a skim-coat of drywall compound on the walls, and then sanding and painting the walls. The kitchen was a mess with tools and materials laying on the floors and countertops. It was difficult to cook a meal and have a clean space to work in. I feel torn when I'm working on DIY projects, which I enjoy, because the daily maintenance isn't taken care of. Luckily, projects have a start and end time, so some of the maintenance is put on hold for a limited time. I try to look at the benefit and the cost, both mentally and financially, of doing DIY projects and when the projects are finished, it's always worth the inconvenience! |
| What daily (or frequent) chore would you like to wave a magic Clutter Fairy wand to remove from your routine? | Cooking. Also dusting furniture and vacuuming but I definitely don't do that on a daily basis! |
