January 17, 2025

PronounsShe/her
Please read the two statements below, then answer the questions that follow.Statement B, with a before and after moment, i.e. the day I realized I could let go of a lof of stuff instead of keeping everything and buying more containers.
Please read the two statements below, then answer the questions that follow.Statement B, which I call peeling the onion. It's like fitting in regular exercise: if I only have 10 or 20 minutes, something is better than nothing.
Please read the two statements below, then answer the questions that follow.Statement A - I know I'm not alone in finding this process difficult, but I remind myself that "keeping a representative sample" is a good start. I like how Statement B is worded.
Please read the two statements below, then answer the questions that follow.Statement B after many years of living according to Statement A. What helped was admitting extra clutter took a lot of space and now thanks to the Internet, you can find everything again (not that I ever regretted letting go of anything...).
Please read the two statements below, then answer the questions that follow.I used to be big on Statement A until I learned to forgive myself for past mistakes. I know I meant well with some purchasing decisions so now I keep that good feeling and let my ill-advised purchases live their best life elsewhere.
Write a statement that summarizes your current mindset with respect to the decluttering and organizing journey.I want to love and enjoy everything I have.
Here’s your chance to ask Gayle and Ed any question you’re curious about. It need not be related to this survey’s topic(s). If we think that your question—and our answer—might be useful or instructive to The Clutter Fairy Weekly audience, we’ll share them in an upcoming episode.Do you have conversations with clients about things that will be problematic after they die if they choose to keep them? My husband finally agreed last week to get rid of a broken hunting rifle (yeah!!), and where I live that means the police will come to your house to collect it. During my chat with the agent I realized his other rifles could not go to our son eventually without him asking for a proper gun ownership licence, which is a long process in Canada. Some things like that need more planning than we realize.
