Dana K White: A Slob Comes Clean

As always, I'm taking time off during the summer. This year, though, we're trying something new! We're sharing the audio of previous live Q&As that I did on YouTube. If you only listen to the podcast, this will be all new to you! We'll be back with our regular format mid-August. This episode includes my answers to questions about basement and attic decluttering, retirement changes, and dealing with craft supplies, plus much more.

Summer is here! (Or almost here!) Even if your personal schedule isn't dictated by a school calendar, life generally looks different in the summer as many activities take breaks or change their schedules. If you've found a cleaning or decluttering routine that works, or you feel like you're finally gaining some much-coveted traction, this can be scary. So let's talk about what to do and where to focus during out of routine times.

I’m answering your decluttering questions that were submitted at AskDanaKWhite.com

• My whole house is pretty much under control now, except one thing: clothes. No matter what, they still get out of control all the time!
• What do I do when I find things that don’t belong in our home?
• To follow the container method and the progress -only method, how do we fill a tub or shelf with favorites till it’s full- without dumping everything on the floor first?
• How do you know when you’ve gone too far? How do you know when it is time to re-clutter?
• There are things I love to do in this space like take notes, make list, collect my thoughts, and imagine. Lately I have stopped writing almost completely because it is too much of an effort to go get what I need.
• Many times, things get left on the counter for weeks on end. Is this likely a clutter threshold issue because the place where the items belong is too cluttered to put things away? Or is it a "not taking it there now" issue?
• Decluttering advice for couples who are moving in together but have both previously lived in their own homes?

I’m answering your decluttering questions that were submitted at AskDanaKWhite.com

• If I want to declutter something but I also want to rearrange a room how do I avoid pulling everything out?
• How do I handle items that don't fit into the desired container even if it were empty?
• We are overflowing with kids books. What questions should I ask (and have my kids ask themselves) to decide which to keep and which to donate?
• My in laws house is jam packed. We will have the burden of cleaning it out. They have trouble with step 1 trash. Do I keep trying to encourage the steps or simply accept this as my burden?
• We need laundry tips: we cloth diaper a newborn and have to be doing laundry everyday, so laundry day isn’t an option right now.
• How do you do Step 1 (Trash), when there is, for example, a deep box of stuff, or a precarious pile of stuff?

My guest today is a nurse who has helped others navigate grief, and she’s determined to tackle her own grief-related clutter. Included in the attic that houses several generations of difficult clutter are unfinished quilting projects that are reminders of the people she’d planned to give them to.
