Survey #279—Full Response from Anonymous user
| During what period of your adult life was your home the least cluttered? Can you identify anything you did differently then (versus now) that helped keep the space tidy? | When I was busy working during the school year in addition to having a spouse and a house dog. During summer break when I was home more often, I was more mindful of picking up after myself because of not inconveniencing both of them. Optional: I strongly agree with her statement. |
|---|---|
| What lessons could you learn from your former way of managing your space that might help with your current way of dealing with clutter? | I could use my time more wisely, pace myself, and stop inconveniencing myself. I miss my spouse, my dog, my career, and how nice I kept my house back then. |
| When you travel, do you prefer to unpack your bags completely in the hotel room or to live out of them so that nothing gets misplaced? What do you consider the pros and cons of either approach? | Live out of them bc something likely will get misplaced during the trip otherwise. I do bring the packing checklist with me, though, especially for the longer trips when I must use the furniture. This way I know what I brought, so I know what must be re-packed. PROS: Items are readily accessible when kept in the packing cubes, luggage, and other organizational bags. CONS: These packing cubes and organizational bags can get messy in the suitcase, especially when adding bags of souvenirs/newly purchased items. Dirty laundry has its own packing cubes, but selecting clean clothing means rifling through the selections each time, and some materials can wrinkle. |
| Please select whichever of the following statements best describes your current wardrobe: | I wear a relatively small number of items of clothing on a regular basis but also possess many items of clothing that I don’t wear much. |
