August 11, 2025

PronounsShe/her
Describe ways in which aging has negatively affected your ability, willingness, or desire to declutter or organize your home.Physically it's hard for me to declutter without hurting myself. One time I worked three hours twisting my back working in a small place. The a year ago I retired and planned to hire help to start my big declutter journey. But I fell and broke my back and was in a lot of pain and could not declutter. I could barely move. So physically it became impossible to complete my mission.
Describe ways in which getting older has positively affected your ability, willingness, or desire to declutter or organize your home.A year after my injury I could sort and discard boxes of papers which I had a lot of. I could sit, sort and discard. But I had a long ways to go with other stuff. I also accepted I am not a donation center and don't need to worry about who the stuff goes to. I accept that I can either trash items or just give to the Goodwill. I don't need to worry about taking pictures and making posts to give away on facebook.
Describe ways in which you’d like for your space and belongings to better support your goals and dreams for the next years of your life.I think about moving out of state. Maybe it's just a dream. I need to keep my walkways clear in case medical personnel need to come in.
Future topics

I have a nice guitar I'd like to donate to a school or a silent auction so they get the money. Do you have any other ideas where or how to donate new barely used items that could bring someone some cash? I also have a new in box China set I never used. I don't think people want that either what to do with it?
