Survey #242—Full Response from Granny
| Please read the two statements below, then answer the questions that follow. | Interesting - my father was very much "a place for everything and everything in its place". He wasn't my favourite parent, though, and I've spent probably too many years going against him. My mother was quite tidy, but not like my father. I was always helped to tidy my bedroom, which would repeatedly descend into relative chaos. I think Statement B is the correct one. |

| Please read the two statements below, then answer the questions that follow. | Statement B - I don't have a big problem with clutter and can look at a problem area and go and sort it out quite easily |
| Please read the two statements below, then answer the questions that follow. | That's my biggest task at the moment! I don't have a problem with objects (I only have a few in any case). My problem is with family papers - letters, birth certificates, emigration/immigration papers, items from when my family had to flee during WWII. I think it's important to have these items available for my family and one of my projects is sorting and scanning them. I have archival boxes for storing the scanned items, but I don't think I'm going to keep them all - there are too many letters and once they're scanned (and saved securely) I'll be able to let them go. |
| Please read the two statements below, then answer the questions that follow. | More like Statement B - I often go through things and offer extras to my kids/their friends and then if nobody wants them, am quite happy to leave them on the kerb for people to pick up. |
| Please read the two statements below, then answer the questions that follow. | Somewhere in between. I have donated some things to homeless shelters, but still have things that "look at me" when I take notice of them 🙂 |
| Write a statement that summarizes your current mindset with respect to the decluttering and organizing journey. | As I said in the last survey, I have a plan for the year to handle photos and documents - I just haven't been able to get myself to start...HELP |
