Just Wondering

Do you have area of clutter in your home?

Is there anything that you keep and don't use?

Are you organised or let things pile up?

This is embarraassing *hides*

[davesmusictank.livejournal.com]

Ahem,why?

[wantedonvoyage.livejournal.com]

LOL because we do all of those things!

1) I'm not sure I have an area that isn't cluttered...
2) Probably.
3) Let me get back to you on that...

My home is nothing but clutter right now. It's normally just limited to my desk.

Probably lots of stuff. I forget to throw things out.

I come off as organized to people who aren't members of my immediate family. My mother things I'm an irredeemable slob; to everyone else, I'm a neat freak.

Areas of clutter. Many many areas.

You mean all those clothes that will fit me when I lose weight?

Organized piles.

[soundofsunlight]

No clutter. I'm a bit of a neat freak.

I try not to, especially as I have very little space. But I do have a few things that I don't use and would like to donate.

I am very organized.

I have a little counter space in my kitchen that is home to plants, fresh herbs, and fresh fruit. Sometimes, the mail piles up there, until I go through it, culling what requires "action/filing" and throwing the rest out or putting it in the shredder. Other than that, my place is neat. Except ... for about a month, I have had a HUGE pile of wedding shower gifts in my living room. I am really ready for the newlyweds to remove it.

I don't keep things I don't use for very long. It's just occurred to me that I don't really listen to most of my cds anymore. I won't donate them just yet, but now that I realized what used to be nostalgic is now irritating, it is only a matter of time before I donate them. I have a cool cd rack that I cannot hang in this apartment; once it is empty or nearly empty, I will give it away or donate it, as well.

I am pretty organized. I am not a neat freak ... I don't dust and vacuum all the time ... but, living alone, it is not difficult to put things away when not in use.

1. No I don't have clutter as to me clutter is unwanted things. I do however have creative disarray.

I have a few things I don't use at the moment but nothing I won't use ar some point. I have cleared out the old Jazz wise and Doctor Who Magazines I won't return too. Well they are in the garage for recycling so if anyone wants them..

A bit of both to be fair.

[everville340.livejournal.com]

"Creative disarray" is a beautiful concept. Thanks for that.

[dark-phoenix54.livejournal.com]

Yes. It's called "the entire house"

I have many books, beads, and craft things that I haven't used/read *yet*.

Depends on the situation. Some of my books and craft things are very organized, other things like mailing materials and plastic containers for leftovers are all in a jumble. Note: the plastic containers are not my choice. The husband collects every container ever.

The question is, do I have an area that's not cluttered?
UGH...

TONS of things.
Am I a collector or a hoarder? :o

A little of both, but things are tending to pile up. :o

Is it too late for Spring cleaning? :o
Hugs, Jon

For me, the proper question is, "Do you have an area of home in your clutter?" I have to sort and throw out a number of things because I will be moving to another city the third week of August. My husband and I can't take everything I want us to take along, both for financial reasons and for the problem of living space. We went through this 3 years ago, and that was agonizing. This time won't be so bad because we have fewer things than we did 3 years ago, but moving is a wrench to my heart.

I can set things up in an organized way, but then I get behind on putting things back in their place and the mess grows and grows. Another part of my prep to move is to go through my filing drawer and trash most of what's in there.

1. No clutter if I can help it.
2. CDs and family heirlooms.
3. Very organized ... I fight not to procrastinate.

[vespican.livejournal.com]

On my behalf, the entire house is a bit of a clutter. Of course I keep things I don't use, because I just might need them someday. And, as they say, books are not "hoarding".

since you asked

[pigshitpoet.livejournal.com]

clutter all in boxes in store room. stuff i'm meaning to get to just never have the time

my worn out partnet... barely used, free to good home ; )))) she's a weird duck. problem is i'm not the one who wore her out, it's her bloody overgrown son of 32 years. fuck, where will it end?

things always pile up because when i'm not overly busy, i'm a procrastinator!
; )

[a-phoenixdragon.livejournal.com]

Uhhh...all of it? *CACKLES*

Too much stuff. I need to go through it all, really!

I have a tendency to organize. :D

*HUUGS*

[aspergerfemale.livejournal.com]

Yeah, my house at the moment! We're doing it up so nothing belongs anywhere. It's driving me nuts/

Lots of things, but I try not to let it get too bad as my dad was a hoarder.

Unfortunately I let things pile up, then I get the arse and go into manic organising mode.

[everville340.livejournal.com]

Yes, but my husband is allowed to keep his desk the way he wants.

Yes, as far as paperwork and stuff, also some VHS tapes, cassettes and an 8-Track somewhere, plus a couple things my father sent in the mail before he passed.

Organizationally focused is how I sometimes refer to myself, though I have been known to let things pile up now and again.

Do you have area of clutter in your home?
Most of my flat!

Is there anything that you keep and don't use?
Yup loads of things.

Are you organised or let things pile up?
Mostly let things pile up and then I'll suddenly have a big tidying and organising time!

[malterre.livejournal.com]

Yes, the whole thing, except bathrooms

soap

Pile, pile, pile

Do you have area of clutter in your home? YES!! Hubby and I were brought up by folks who lived through the Depression. You NEVER threw anything away! (My mother saved jelly jars for drinking glasses, as just ONE example.) I am grateful that charities ask for donations of goods, as I can give away stuff with a good conscience.

Is there anything that you keep and don't use? I'm sure there is still plenty of that. We raised seven kids, so all the towels needed(for one example) are still in the linen closet, even though there are only 3 of us now.

Are you organised or let things pile up? I confess, I am very disorganized.

Do you have area of clutter in your home?
I've lived in my house for 50 years, so yes
But I am beginning to get rid of stuff.

Is there anything that you keep and don't use?

too many. Yesterday I found an old shirt in the back of my closet and in it was a note dated in 1979 about some workplace savings account!

Are you organised or let things pile up?

I am pretty organized - but not really dealing with getting rid of stuff.

[deborahw37.livejournal.com]

I'm fairly organised by there are three deeply shameful cupboards.

The book cupboard has floor to ceiling book shelves but not only are they piled three deep but there are teetering stacks of books on the floor; occasionally there is an avalanche .

The Cupboard under the eaves; once you crawl through the door of this one you can stand up, it's like a small, tent ceiling room. Well you could stand up if it wasn't full of cases, boxes and bags of "stuff" such as Christmas decorations, old documents, general wodge.I try to clean and sort it once a year.

The cupboard under the stairs; when clean and tidy it's where the hoover, mop, broom etc go but things tend to get bunged in there and accumulate .

[kabuldur.livejournal.com]

I have lots of clutter around my desk. As soon as I clean it up, it starts piling up again!

Yes, I have keepsakes from my kids. I sort of use them. I take them out and look at them every so often. And they are displayed in cupboard! So, I guess technically they're still used :)

I do let thinks pile up, that's for sure.
