| What feelings or memories—positive, negative, or in-between—does the phrase “dining room” evoke for you? How have your attitudes, beliefs, or practices around dining and entertaining changed over time? What impact, if any, do dining and entertaining have on the clutter in your space? | The dining room has always been used to eat. Growing up we had our meals in the kitchen and eight meals in the dining room on special occasions. It was never cluttered.. I love having people over and when I downsized it was very important that I had a dining area in which we could all be around the table eating family style. I moved about four months ago and I’ve had people over an average of once a week. It is getting used and it gives me joy. |
| Future topics | Best ways to gently talk to your friends about the need to declutter especially as we are all getting older |
