Survey #257—Full Response from Allison
| Pronouns | She/her |
|---|---|
| How have your ideas, attitudes, and behaviors around clutter changed over the course of your adult life? Do you have a higher or lower threshold for what counts as “clutter”? | Definitely a lower threshold than in past years. I'll never be a minimalist but am moving in that direction. |
| Do you find it easier or harder to declutter and organize as time goes by? Are there categories of stuff that get easier to manage? Are there categories that get harder to manage? | Everything is easier to declutter and manage. I've let go of meaningful items and somehow life still goes on. Downsized considerably several years ago and am considering further downsizing. |
| Think about the person in your life who’s had the most impact on your decluttering and organizing, or the person whose own clutter creates the most impact on you. This may be a spouse, partner, roommate, child, parent, another member of your household, or someone outside your household or family. How have this person’s ideas, attitudes, and behaviors around clutter—or the way their stuff affects you—changed over the course of your relationship? | Dealing with my parents' and husband's belongings had a huge impact on me. I don't want to leave anywhere near the amount of stuff they did. Everything I keep my heirs will have to dispose of and that's not fair to them. |
| If you could ask for one small change in someone else’s behavior that would improve the state of your home, what would it be? | Not my home as I live alone but the family members I will probably clean up after they're gone should declutter right away. |
