440: When Decluttering Snags Happen

Today, I’m answering questions you’ve asked over at AskDanaKWhite.com. The general theme of these questions is, “Oh no! I was decluttering, and then something happened that made it harder!” So what if an item has a home, but you can’t “get” to its home because you are borderline approaching hoarder status?What do you do when you have an item that needs something done, e.g., an old laptop that needs stuff taken off before disposal or a photo album you want to chuck away, but you need to take all the photos out first?I do most of my decluttering during baby’s nap time (she sleeps in our room) or after all the kids are in bed. How do I avoid keep piles when there are so many things I can’t “take it there now”?How do I now downsize/remove containers from this point, even though everything has a home?I remember I have (something), and I need it but can’t find it.
