Survey #285—Full Response from Terry

← Go back

December 11, 2025

PronounsShe/her
What are your favorite ways to celebrate decluttering and organizing wins?A friend of mine is also decluttering - we text each other when we make some progress.
Describe a subscription that tends to add more clutter to your life than interesting or useful content.Email: Promotional emails clutter my Inbox and my brain. And they steal time as I look at the items they are offering (and sometimes divert me for minutes/hours once I start looking around online).
Fundraising emails that come with alarming regularity once one contributes and often with alarmist subject lines.

Facebook: Not a subscription per se, but definitely regularly offering up content that can enlighten but also distracts me regularly from many minutes (hours?) of things I want to accomplish. There are some small local shops that only provide info on Facebook - I go on to see what the specials are today and end up going down the Facebook rabbit hole. Same with Instagram, but to a much lesser degree.

Substack subscriptions: they provide a lot of valuable content, but some are quite long and time consuming to read.
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.Do your clients sometimes find it hard to fill the space that recreational shopping used to occupy (either on their own or with friends)?
