Describe ways in which aging has negatively affected your ability, willingness, or desire to declutter or organize your home.In my 50s, I was very sturdy and unstoppable, physically. I could stand, organize, and pack for hours on end.
Now, at 62, I am so surprised by how very stoppable, I am! My solution is sitting at the kitchen table, & using it as my processing surface for much shorter work sessions, usually 90 minutes at a time. It’s working, beautifully!
Describe ways in which getting older has positively affected your ability, willingness, or desire to declutter or organize your home.Gayle & Ed, your advice to keep the best representations from a category, or collection, has helped me so much. I am displaying, or framing, those very best items, and actually enjoying them! A huge victory for me. Thank you for your terrific advice and inspiration.
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.We have downsized to our retirement home, and now I am determined to go through all the dozens and dozens of photo albums, tubs, and boxes which are full of paper photos from three generations, including my own.

Gayle & Ed, sending you a big “Thank You” for your terrific podcast which keeps me company as I declutter!
