Survey #279—Full Response from Peggy
| 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? | Right now is the time I am the least cluttered. I'm trying to find something every day to get rid of or work on (could be cleaning the fridge or windows, etc). It is making a difference! |
|---|---|
| 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 remember trying to be organized without being willing to actually give up things, like my enormous stack of catalogs. Yikes! |
| 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? | I leave everything in my small backpack, which is all I travel with. I might take a trash bag to use for containing dirty clothes. But I often just re-wear everything since I bring so little clothing. |
| 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. |
| Here’s your chance to ask Gayle and Ed any question you’re curious about. It need not be related to this survey’s topic(s). If we think that your question—and our answer—might be useful or instructive to The Clutter Fairy Weekly audience, we’ll share them in an upcoming episode. | This is regarding the previous question. I don't know the number of clothing articles I own but they all fit easily in my bureau and small closet. I still like everything and it all fits me. I sometimes get in the habit of wearing a particular selection of these items for the season, then switch to a different set the following year. This is why I don't get rid of the excess items. I'm not buying a lot of new clothes. |
