Survey #289—Full Response from Sandy

← Go back

January 2, 2026

PronounsShe/her
Describe a day on which you were busy, but you still felt as if you didn’t accomplish what mattered most.I mostly feel that way when I make a bigger mess when trying to make forward progress in any individual project. I get visually distracted and can easily go down a "rabbit hole" when trying to get organized and then beat myself up when I don't get done what I was trying to do.
What challenges keep you from getting things done?Time is my biggest challenge and managing it properly.
Describe a project on which you struggled to start—or to finish.Most any project, happens often.
What tools for managing your activities (calendar, task manager, etc.) are the most or least helpful to you?I love a calender and a to do list.
Please complete the following statement: “I never seem to have enough time for _____.”My family
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.Can you share advice on what to say to aging independent parents, who don't/won't ask for help to maintain their home, but clearly cannot keep up with the general cleaning, laundry, trash and recycling any longer. I want to help, but don't want it to be a huge fight everytime I come over.
