Survey #236 Full Response from Lise
| Pronouns | She/her |
|---|---|
| Describe a collection or category of items in your home that you’re worried might have crossed over into “too many” or “too much.” | Teddy bear collection (I am technically past the stuff animal age - I just love them and they need a good home.), DVD's / CD's and art/craft supplies (I want/like options). |
| For the category or collection described above, what factor(s) contribute to your assessment of the stash as excessive? | Cluttered space/area - I feel guilty of having items and not using - saving replacements for when the current item(s) being used disintegrates. Sometimes the "backup" ends up disintegrating before I get to use it. Saving for a rainy day mentality. |
| For the category or collection described previously, what would you consider a reasonable limit? Your answer may take the form of a precise number, a volume of space, a budget, a time commitment, or any other metric that makes sense to you. Optional: Explain how you arrived at this answer. | I have a problem being unsure on a "limit" besides a designated space limitation. I probably still over pack the appointed space and items need room to breathe. |
| Describe something that you keep in your space because it reminds you of a better time in your life or a fond memory, even though you might otherwise consider it unnecessary or excessive. | I have some of my great-grandmother's and godmother's Christmas ornaments in a glass apothecary on our t.v. console year round. I love looking at them but they are rather unnecessary. It just brings back memories of when I was little and great-grandma would decorate for the holiday hanging ornaments from the gold loop trim on the swag of her drapes. She made everything feel extra special with the smallest touch. |
